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.

You and your child deserve better, Dr. Friesema is possibly the least professional doctor I have ever met. This is based on several visits. She is a gossip and seems to think that she knows best about raising others children. She should be at home raising her small children not coming to work telling others how to raise their children. If you are looking for a good doctor, look elsewhere.

Dr. Freisema is my daughter's pediatrician. She is the nicest doctor. She is an outstanding pediatrician. She is the only doctor that I will ever take my daughter to. My daughter absolutely lives her. She is very concerned about her patients health. She explains everything to my daughter and I. I would highly recommend her.
