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 Dunlap is an amazing surgeon and person. She performed an L4-L5 discectomy on my back. Due to the nature of my injury she scheduled a surgery suite after hours (due to lack of availability) at the hospital and then came in on her day off to perform the surgery. Thanks to Dr Dunlap I have enjoyed 15 pain free years since the surgery and I have been fully active. Surfing, snowboarding, fishing, hiking. Dr Dunlap gave me my life back and I am eternally grateful.

Dr. Dunlap was extremely pleasant and listened to me. But even better than that, she performed surgery on my back and I have been pain free ever since. She changed my life.

Very biter and extremely rude. Mailed me someone else's medical report, and than said mine was exactly the same. Wouldn't begin to trust her for surgery. She should get away from people and her obsession for her patients to be in tank tops for their appointment.
