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.

She was so rude. Told me there wouldn't be any pain with my procedure then when I had pain (extreme) she down played my pain and said well of course your going to have some cramping it's apart of your vagina. I told her to stop and then was spoken to like it was a burden to have me get surgery instead. Also when she put those duck beak things in she gave no warning. It was like she was looking around in the dark for something. DONT SEE HER GO SOMEWHERE ELSE

She was very rude, loud voiced, abrasive, RUSHED, ignorant and completely unhelpful. She also must think everyone she treats is stupid. She lied to me 3 times: 1. she said tests had been run for "everything," when KP has only EVER run vaginal swab rapid kits and refused to do a swab CULTURE to see what bacteria grows. 2. She claimed if I had more antibiotics in the future, I will get a hole in my intestine and "she's liable." As a hospital pharmacy tech, she's flat out lying. Semi-annual antibiotic use for chronic flairups will NOT do that when taken as directed with probiotics and food. 3. She claimed my autoimmune disease would go away if I do a gluten free/dairy free diet even though I have done that for years and guess what, still have my autoimmune disease. She also tried to leave me afraid of irreversable complications from my autoimmune disease while leaving me with NO treatment plan. Her parting words were "at least your vagina hasn't BURNED SHUT...yet." WORST provider.

Avoid at all costs. I expressed concerned that I had lost 20 pounds during my first eight weeks of pregnancy. She told me that I didn’t have to worry about it, then laughed and mocked me for being fat. Wow, just wow.

Not someone I would ever see again. Does not care how she makes you feel, straight to the point, does not care about your feelings one bit. Would not recommend her to anyone, is very rude when talking to patients parents as well. Do not see her. Know multiple people who have seen her and all day the same thing, she does not care about her patients.
