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.

Dr Smith is my 92 year old moms doctor she is great to her. I wanted to share a good comment in one of her receptionists her name is Julie. I was having a terrible time obtaining a refill on one of her prescriptions Julie went out of her way to be helpful, kind and understanding! I so appreciated this and it’s so refreshing to meet someone like this! Thanx again Julie??

She is very nice but went in for a routine physical and she ended billing for things that were never discussed or a concern. Looks like trying to earn extra money and taking advantage of patients who don’t understand billing or the way insurances work

Dr. Smith is a compassionate and helpful family practitioner. I've been a patient of hers for years and I couldn't be happier. Now that I have a newborn my whole family sees Dr. Smith and she is wonderful with all of us. She takes time to guide patients in making medical decisions. If Dr. Smith is unsure about a concern she won't hesitate to make a referral. I also find her knowledgeable about different conditions that my husband, baby and I have experienced. I feel fortunate to be her patient.
