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 best!
Dr. Hockhausen and her nurse were awesome! Both very professional and personable. They both listened to my needs and explained everything perfectly! I felt that she genuinely cared about my concerns! Thank you both!!

Thorough and knowledgeable
Dr Hockhausen explained my skin condition and the options with honesty and understanding of my feelings. She did not push treatments that weren’t necessary and was upfront with expectations in the future. She provides a thorough exam not rushing through my appointments.

Thanks so much!
Dr Hockhausen is very professional, skilled and pleasant. I had a wonderful visit. One thing to know is that if you are more than 10 minutes late, they will ask you to reschedule…Whick is one reason she runs very efficiently and timely. Thanks again.
