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.

Fantastic Surgeon, Wonderful Experience
I was referred to Dr. Ash after having several gallbladder attacks. In our first meeting, Dr. Ash was extremely thorough in discussing my situation and my options, and very patient with all of my questions. She always does a great job of explaining everything clearly, is happy to address questions and concerns, and never rushes or pressures you. On the day of surgery, she came to see me beforehand and made sure I was comfortable and ready. The surgery itself went perfectly and I was in and out of the hospital quickly. I had questions during my healing process over the following weeks, and Dr. Ash and her staff were all incredibly patient and helpful, always took me seriously, and addressed my concerns right away. I would absolutely recommend her to anyone.

I was referred to Dr Ash after a gallbladder attack in July 2019. She is the type of doctor that ask a great deal of questions in an effort to form her judgments. I found this very good. I had my surgery in mid Sept and it went very well. On the day of my followup, Dr Ash shared with me the lab reports, and once again asked many questions to make a judgment as to how I am doing. I find her manner very competent and professional.

great bedside manors, great at listening and great with a knife. fast recovery! The only thing that upset me was when I called back after the surgery and got the nurse, she didn't listen completely to what I was telling her, but that was on pain meds and I'm sure I wasn't communicating as well as I could have done. Anyways, I would recommend Dr. Ash to anyone. She's amazing.
