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.

Disappointed in patient care
We are expecting and booked a prenatal appointment based on recommendations of others that she was a thorough pediatrician for our children once delivered. The appointment took a month to be seen, which we understood because it was an afternoon consultation. However, the day before the appointment a family emergency took us out of town and when we called to transition the appointment to virtual or phone, the receptionist spoke with Dr. Lenser to see if she was willing to do a phone consultation rather than one in office. The receptionist told us that Dr. Lenser responded by saying that she was too busy to make a phone call during our appointment time and that if we weren’t in office then we wouldn’t be seen. We are incredibly disappointed that this is her outlook on patient care. We canceled and will be booking with someone who is more family friendly.
