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.

This is the internist I've been looking for over many years. She not only knows her medicine - she listens and respects the self knowledge that patients have. She is respectful of questions and her staff are great about follow-up. The main problem is she's the sort of doctor that others want. But I will continue to recommend her to all my friends even if that means I have to wait a little longer to see her. I want the best for my friends.

Dr. Hofmann is the BEST!! She's thorough, kind, reassuring, and *extremely* knowledgeable. I had several kind of obscure questions for her and she had detailed, research-backed answers for them off the top of her head. Very impressive! She also had a healthy focus on the full spectrum of wellness, including stress management, healthy relationships, etc., on top of all her medical knowledge. She sent me my bloodwork promptly with an easy-to-understand explanation and even included a note abo

I've been her patient for over two years, and I love her bedside manner. I am a retired nurse and I've worked with a lot of doctors, but she tops them all. She's very thorough when she examines you. She really listens to what her patients have to say. She returns her calls. She is a great communicator. I have recommended her to friends and family members and they love her. I hope she stays in the area and never moves.
