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.

I thought my appointment was yesterday, but when I checked in, it was actually next week, but Dr Burns saw me in spite of that. Everyone in the office is very accommodating and friendly. I trust Dr Burns and am appreciative of her skill, knowledge and expertise and feel she is genuinely concerned for my health.
