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.

Great Experience
I took my special needs son to see Dr. Shemanski. She was patient, caring, thorough and explained everything clearly. She also asked for and listened to the information I gave her including my gut feelings and was very considerate. I could not have been happier with the experience.

Dr. Shemanski really impressed us. She is young but so knowledgeable and relatable that you felt instantly comfortable with her. Both my husband and son needed nasal surgery. She explained everything to us at every point in the process. Needless, to say we are delighted with the outcome! I know it can be stressful searching for good doctors these days. She was a real find for us. Great with kids and adults...(and those of us just supporting them).
