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.

Dr. Scharer is an extremely competent provider with exceptional clinical and communication skills. She listens to my concerns with her full attention and gives me the information I need to select the best option. I have never felt rushed in an appointment with her. I appreciate that when I ask for her professional opinion about what decision to make, she will give it to me. Some doctors have become too "whatever works for you" in my opinion. I trust Dr. Scharer and feel empowered in her care.

No -I would not recommend her as she is not trustworthy. I came in for a wellness visit which is covered by my insurance and to continue my wellness credit. She bill another code for the visit and I got charged for a type of visit that I did not schedule. She would not change the code because of the type of questions she asked. Apparently she documented that I already had my wellness barametric visit screening at another clinic if so - I would be receiving my Ins wellness credit
