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.

I went for failed screening test, was told I would receive an appointment with a specialist, never happened, they filed wellness visit instead and refused to help me. I found a specialist myself to find out I had edema with heart problems related to the silent killer, Cochran would have just let me die

Friendly but poor exam.
My old doctor moved away so I scheduled an appointment with Dr. Cochran based on reviews and my family using her. Exam lasted less than 30 seconds and was not complete. The entire encounter was less than two minutes and it was rushed. My old doctor spent anywhere from 5-15 minutes with me at the most and was very thorough. I didn’t even have time to ask concerns I had. I will find a new primary care physician.

I would not recommend this doctor, she has no customer service skills and would not take the time to discuss my condition with me after waiting for more than an hour and taking off a half day of work.
