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.Clear is always amazing! Always so caring and attentive with your concerns . Answered all my questions and gave amazing suggestions now that I’m 6 months postpartum and needing advice with Breastfeeding.

Best Doctor I Have Ever Had
Are you looking for a Doctor Who talks to you like a person and truly cares about your well-being? Look no further! I truly feel cared for and heard by Dr. Clear. I would recommend her to everyone! She truly helped me through a rough pregnancy and I really feel like she cares about me as her patient. I never felt rushed or disregarded with my concerns or questions. I appreciate doctors like her so much!

My baby was frank breech and after inquiring about a vaginal breech birth, the physician shared outdated information to inflate the procedure's risks. She also made comments about my baby's estimated weight on ultrasound and that I was 'petite' - suggesting that my body just simply couldn't birth a baby. This made me believe that she had an underlying desire to push me towards a c-section. After transferring my care to a hospital that provided vaginal breech birth and having a successful vaginal birth, I attempted to make a new appointment at the clinic due a breast lump. The clinic canceled my appointment & terminated me from the practice. After speaking with an administrator at the clinic, she claimed there were concerns about me following the doctor's advice going forward because I chose a vaginal breech birth. This clinic & provider seem to not want women to be agents in their own healthcare decisions and even seek a simple second opinion.

Dr Clear is top notch. I’ve delivered both my daughters with her and she is who I will continue to see for years to come. She is thorough and thoughtful and most importantly, puts you first.

This doctor is great!
Dr Clear totally knows what she is doing and she’s so helpful. She listens and she’s proactive. I’m SO GLAD I found her! So many doctors are terrible with women’s hormones. She is a gem!

First time appointment review
Dr Clear was a pleasure to meet and speak with at my 9 week appointment, and as a first time parent covered all the new-to-pregnancy and parenting basics. Felt and and heard and was not rushed. All the Nurses and Tech staff who I met with were equally a pleasure.

Wonderfully Kind
Dr. Clear was extremely welcoming and kind at my first visit. I explained about my experience of not being listened to by a previous OB and she listened and responded emphatically. She was respectful, not pushy, and provided me with many options for my issue.
