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.

She is very through and kind and takes her time with you. I don't know if it's her staff or her but my phone messages and patient portal messages are hardly ever returned. Anothermember of my family who also sees her needed important medical papers filled out that were of urgency are still not done with many unanswered calls and messages.

Excellent as always. Even though I'm a nurse, I appreciate her explanations, consideration of my opinions and we work together to decide on the best course of action for my healthcare. I'm very satisfied with her management.

Dr. Hoffman is a very thoughtful and thorough doctor. She asks questions, listens ,provides a recommendation but does not necessarily push. In a world where everything is drive thru and fast, she is exactly the kind of doctor you need when you have an issue.

Dr. Hoffman is skilled, kind, compassionate, encouraging, wise... there really aren’t enough superlatives. This may sound crazy - I LOOK FORWARD to going to the doctor. Until now, I’ve never had a doctor I liked, and now I’m never leaving! Office staff is amazing, also. Capable, helpful, friendly... it’s like bizarro world!
