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've seen Dr. Wilwerding since my four year old was born and think the world of her. She listens and helps parents weigh pros and cons. We trust her opinion, and have valued her perspective with all of our children's health needs. It is always easy to reach someone with health-related questions, even after hours.

Was there for our sons appt and just wanted to ask if there was anything else we could do about our daughters ezcema. She has seen her before for this problem but then ended up charging us for a 30 second visit telling us there was nothing else she could do. I work in a Drs office and something could of been done to take care of this issue and the office manager could have wrote it off but did nothing. Won't be going there ever again.

She has always been so helpful and great with my daughter and her allergy issues. She takes the time to talk to you and she always gives you the pros and cons. She isn't quick to write prescriptions like most doctors.

Dr. Wilwerding has been an excellent resource to our family. I was referred by my OB after struggling with breastfeeding my twins - she salvaged our relationship and I successfully nursed both of them until 15 months. She is so knowledgeable that I opted to move all of my children to her care. She takes time with each of her patients and we never feel rushed. She answers all of out questions. Her staff is kind and very easy to work with! I recommend her to everyone!

She inappropriately ordered 24/7 skin to skin instead of NICU care to help with temp regulation for my struggling 36-weeker. My baby ended up in the NICU on Day 3 due to critical hypothermia, severe dehydration, and severe hypoglycemia. She needed 11 days of NICU care before she was healthy enough to come home. This doctor is biased by her breastfeeding mission, and it hurt my baby.
