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.

Office visit
Doctor Bruns is a doctor that I would recommend to anyone. She is very knowledgeable and I feel very confident and I appreciate her honesty about the situation. I also appreciate the time she takes to explain things if they need to be explained.

Very. Helpful and Caring
Dr. Bruns treats my diabetes. Under her care I have learned how to eat so that I have lowered my quarterly diabetes blood sugar average into a much safer range. She listens to everything, I feel she cares about helping me, and I highly recommend her.

I was referred to Dr. Bruns as a specialist to help me get my diabetes type 2 under control. I have been seeing Dr. Bruns for approximately 9 months and we are making great progress together. Dr. Bruns will take as much time as you may need to find the "right" program that works for you. Her entire staff is wonderful...and always available to answer any questions I may have. My diabetes is improving with each visit. I am truly blessed to have found Dr. Bruns at this cruicial time with my diabetes. I couldn't be happier. Thank you, Dr. Bruns and staff!!

I love Dr. Bruns! She is very down to earth and easy to talk to, however, very intelligent and on top of the latest medical options available. I see her for CAH, and she takes as much time as needed for me to ask questions and I never feel rushed.

I have been seeing Dr. Bruns since 2016. She is extremely knowledgeable and cares about her patients. My last appointment was extremely rushed and I felt she was not hearing what I was saying. Everyone has rough days so I am hoping I just caught her on a rough day. Overall, this was the only appointment in 5 years that I have ever experienced that with her.

We highly recommend Dr. Bruns. Every time we have an appointment she takes all the time we need to explain things to us, and gives great feedback. We can and do ask her anything about our medical conditions, and she makes sure we understand everything. Great doctor!

Dr. Bruns is a rarity anymore....she asks questions, listens, digs into your medical history, doesn't automatically throw drugs at you, and truly cares. This woman is a gem, and I love getting to go see her. I wish more doctors were like her!

I was extremely impressed with Dr. Bruns. I learned more about my thyroid problems in 30 minutes than I have learned in 2 years from my other doctor. She said she is a teaching doctor and she really is. She answered all of my concerns and more and was not in a hurry to leave. I would recommend her to everyone with Endocrine issues.

She is the best doctor I have ever had. She is very up to date on all forms of treatment and provides a level of care few doctors take the time to give. She is personable and upbeat, while seriously listening to the patients’ concerns.
