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. Esernio-Jenssen is the real abuser.
How do you get so much pleasure out of trying to tear families apart? You act like you’ve never heard of PTSD before which is what you’re causing to countless people.

Pure evil
This woman should have her license revoked. She was thrown out of NY and FL for making false allegations of child abuse, and is doing the same thing here in the Lehigh Valley. How many families does she need to destroy before the medical board steps in? Under no circumstances should any parent take their children to LVH ER and risk having this evil woman insert herself into your lives. If you see her coming - grab your children and run for your lives.

Dr. Esernio- Jenssen was not very friendly to me as a new mother. My experience with her as a new mother was not welcoming. Her elitist attitude towards me and, my new born baby made my experience very memorable, but for all the wrong reasons. I would never recommend her to anyone. Her bedside manner towards POC was uninviting and incredibility unprofessional. If you are looking for a great doctor she is not it.
