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.

Not only will you sit here for hours. The office was filled with a trail of ants. Going all around the office. No one seemed to notice them crawling all over the walls. They don’t wear gloves, I saw one of the nurses pick up a urine sample with her bare hands and touch everything else after. I feel bad for the nurse that was eating at that desk that had been touched with urine hands. The doctor also talks so loud that you can hear everything about the patients. If you’re looking for a sanitary and professional OBGYN don’t go here!! Not sure how he has these ratings.

Dr. Purdom made me feel so comfortable and relaxed while pregnant with my baby boy, he was also excellent when it was time for me to give birth. I went to the hospital around 1:00am and dr. Purdom arrived so quickly, my fiancé seen him running to the rescue through the hospital window. :D I appreciate and respect him so much as a doctor. I recommend him to everyone! I've recently moved to NYC but I'm seriously considering flying back to California when it's time for baby # two!
