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. Sharett is sharp and thorough and she knows what she is doing. 4 years of miserable vertigo she diagnosed as a migraine type on my first visit. Two weeks into treatment and I am functioning much much better. Such a blessing and miracle to be under her care.

The most productive and personalized health care experience of my life. I miss Dr. Sharett terribly and pray she she’s patients in the area again. St. Francis lost a gem. And re prior comments, unreturned calls, phones not answered - zero to do with the doctor. Do your homework before damaging a physicians reputation.

Left us hanging without a doctor
Had been trying to get a neurologist appointment in town for a year. Finally got one with Dr. Sharrett. She supposedly had an emergency on the day of the appointment, but we stayed to see her. Took 5 hours for her to finally get to us. She sent us for blood tests and was supposed to send referrals for therapy and audiologist. Didn't hear anything for 2 weeks. Sent message on portal, didn't receive an answer. Called a couple of days later and they seemed to have forgotten to send the referrals and said they would that day. Still didn't hear from anyone, sent another message, no reply. Called today, 6 weeks later, to find out she had left her office here and everthing from 2 weeks ago was cancelled. No referrals, no test results, no recommendations for a future neurologist. Unprofessional, uncaring of her patients. Hopefully we can find another neurologist before 2025.

Dr. Sharette is the 3rd neurologist I was referred to regarding headaches, the first was in Baton Rouge, LA and the second in Jackson, MS. I have suffered with very specific symptomatic headaches for probably close to 10 years and have seen numerous doctors with a long list of prescribed meds, none of which gave me any relief. Frankly, every doctor, including the neurologists, wanted to give me migraine medication when I consistently told all of them that it was not a migraine headache, because I only got them when I coughed, sneezed or strained in some way. Dr. Sharette is the first doctor I felt like actually LISTENED to what I was saying about my symptoms. She knew right away that I had a very specific type of headache and gave me a prescription that worked immediately, and it was an easily obtained drug that was quite cheap actually. She literally gave me my life back. I can't explain how grateful I am to her.

I connected with Dr. Sharett because of her education and her experience. She was awesome! I am a GBS (Guillain Barre Syndrome). patient and she and I sat and talked about my history and she gave me part of a plan she would be working out with me regarding my medical care. I have to tip my hat to her and her staff for being professional, caring and empathetic.

Thank you Dr. Sharett
Dr. Sharett corrected a diagnosis I have carried for years. Without a doubt she saved my life and restored my quality of life. I agree her office is pretty impossible to work with. I have been Very inconvenienced myself, but I know this was out of the doctor’s control.

From day one I was impressed with Dr. Sharett. She left no doubt in my mind that she would find out what was at the root of my vision problems. While the prognosis was scary, she put me at ease and attacked my symptoms and root cause head on and did a fantastic job getting my disease under control. I will be forever greatful to Dr. Sharett for her care and caring! She is, without a doubt, the best Dr. I've ever had.
