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.

Excellent Doctor
I just saw Dr. Edwards for the first time for an annual physical She was great in my view. Can't speak for the naysayers above, but I found her to be thorough, interested, who listened well and was thoughtful in her advice. So far, very happy!

Look elsewhere
For the past 4 years I had to advocate for all of my care. Requesting labs and looking elsewhere for basic preventative care. I didn’t feel supported or advocated for. Dr Edwards is just checking boxes and billing insurance. Doing the bare minimum at best.

Nice but don’t recommend
I had Dr Edwards for about 5 years. Don’t ask why I didn’t switch Drs much sooner. She does NOT follow up. IF she does, it’s pawned off on another Dr or nurse. Did not feel SAFE with her promises. Did NOT monitor my serious health situations. Promises actions then nothing. Walked out the door after 15 to 20 min appt without a goodbye or summary of visit. Made me feel like I bothered her. Fast to comment without information to support. She rushes smiles and gone. I do not recommend Dr Edwards if you want to feel safe ailments, need support, or expect a thorough appt. Made me feel like I was bothering her with questioning my questions to her. I had to be my own dr and diagnose myself. God forbid I were elderly. Scary. She needs to either cut back on her patients or spend a little more time at her job and with her patients. I always had a great Dr she was given to me when my Dr left. Had I known I would’ve chosen a dif Dr long ago. Doesn’t have your BACK! Don’t trust!

She’s a kind doctor but not a good one. She was my primary care physician and although she was sweet she was clueless. Every time I would go in for a referral for an issue she would try to diagnose with very little knowledge. She prescribed medication that was too high a dose and I was complete unable to function then gave me unnecessary antibiotics which aggravated my condition. When I went in to see both “specialists” they were stunned that she tried to treat me without proper testing. I quit going to see her and am glad to have a new primary who is more knowledgeable and knows when to send my to the proper physician.

I really like Dr. Edwards. I think she's very professional, listens well, kind, I didn't feel rushed. I'm quite happy she's my doctor. I found it hard to reach someone to make an appointment but that's certainly not the fault of the doctor.

Provider did not go over blood test results at a routine physical and ignored the patient's concerns. Did not communicate clearly and spent a very short time with the patient.

I have met with Dr. Edwards three times now. She is very compassionate and supportive as I'm dealing with a new diagnosis of diabetes. I feel her wholistic treatment plan is workable and I look forward to beating this thing.

I feel in very good hands with Dr Edwards. She is clearly knowledgeable and takes the right amount of time given the nature of the appointment. The office is very friendly too!

This was my first visit, I told her about not sleeping well and she recommended a blood test. I did the lab work but never received the results. After waiting 2 1/2 months I called the office, the electronic records of my lab test did not populate into my patient file. After asking for a copy of my lab results I received a brochure in the mail about high blood pressure with no explanation. This is unacceptable how the doctor sent a pamphlet with no explanation and no lab results.

dr edwards has one of the most healing approaches to medicine i have ever seen. she has a great healing touch technique. she elicits the patient to choose lifestyle changes for a greater health continuum. she is a gentle soul yet has a strong command of factual scientific applications. if she doesn't know something, she finds answers in current science. dr edwards has helped me immensly to regain my prior level of health following a recent health crisis.
