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. Michaels assured me she was capable of excising the endometriosis from several areas in my pelvis. She was not capable. She ablated them instead, meaning she burned the top of the growths without removing it. She told me she got it all. When my pain came back a MONTH later, not even when I was recovered, she insisted it had to be my kidneys, that it wasn't endo pain again & told I was wrong. I had excision surgery 6 months later, and the surgeon removed huge amounts of endo from 5 surfaces.
