Your trust is our top concern.

We strive to keep reviews honest, trustworthy, and fair.

Doctors can not pay for good reviews, nor can they pay to have negative reviews removed.

We monitor all reviews to ensure they comply with our guidelines and don’t include personal information, profanity, libel, defamation, harassment, obscenity or fraud.

Any reviews that are deemed fraudulent or violate our guidelines will be removed immediately.

All reviews are confirmed and audited before publication, and community members have the ability to flag inappropriate content for further review by our team.

If I could give her and her staff a lower amount of stars I would. The staff was really rude and so was she. The more questions I had the more frustrated she seemed to get. People in the medical community should understand that we go to them because we don't know what is going on with our child when they are sick, if we did, then we wouldn't need them. Also the staff's recommendation to leave after waiting 45 minutes and being passed on by people with later appointments made this terrible.
