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.

Great and compassionate
Dr Abuso was very caring and really helped me a lot. She listened to my problems carefully and explained the tests she recommended. I really appreciate her.

Would give 0 stars if I could.
Unfortunately my mother was a patient of doctor Abuso. My mother made her symptoms known and Dr. Abuso ran tests. My mother's liver enzymes were high. They did an ultrasound and she LIED and told my mother her liver enzymes were a little elevated but nothing to worry about. Nothing was done, no follow up. Fast forward 7 months my mother switched doctors. They ran same tests. Liver enzymes high. Over the course of the next couple of months my mother went from "elevated liver enzymes but nothing to worry about" to stage 4 cirrhosis of the liver!!! I look back at my mother's test results and the report from the ultrasound went to Dr. Abuso saying "possible BEGINNING of cirrhosis!!!!!!" Abuso NEVER ONCE FOLLOWED UP WITH MY MOM!!! She straight lied to my mama's face! I would NEVER recommend this woman to anyone
