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.

We love her!
She is very kind and warm and an excellent doctor. My boys love her. She has always offered encouragement and excellent medical care.

×Post a ResponseAre you Dr. Tigue?
Dr Tigue has never, and I mean never, been pleasant or courteous towards me. I went to Peds of NEPA as a kid and my son sees another doctors there now. She was miserable when I was a teenager and she is still miserable to this day. I actually choose a P.A. over seeing Tigue when my son's Doctor is not available because the one time I had my son in to see her, she was still miserable and now rude. I hate saying stuff like this, but she just makes situations, like passing in the hall, uneasy.
