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. App is Amazing
After my first consultation, I knew I was at the right place. Dr. App and her staff were extremely thorough. She explained my cancer situation in great detail and provided all the options that were available. She spent a great deal of time examining me so we had the full picture. The surgeries went extremely well. I had a lymph node dissection and a complete mastectomy. I experienced very little pain and zero complications. Dr. App is a skilled, experienced and compassionate surgeon. She also made sure my referral appointments with oncology and OT were scheduled. When I wasn’t receiving calls from the facilities, she got on the phone herself to make things happen! You are in great hands with Dr. App and her team.
