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.

The practice is a joke. No return calls. She's shady.

She was great. Making another appointment is impossible. Been calling for weeks and left messages, no call back, never had a real person answer the phone. Also need an appointment with Dr. Zane. The doctors are wonderful, but the office should stay home. No office can be so busy they never call back or ever answer the phone.

Great doctor. Spent plenty of time with me, knew her stuff, cared about me as a person, and was down to earth.
