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.

Amazing and brilliant.. best doctor you can see!

not considerate of patient's time
I had to wait for an hour before finally leaving. The front desk staff was rude to me. Please don't contact me for a survey again.

Amazing
I cannot thank Dr. Williamson enough for her help with knee pain that I was having. I was hardly able to walk and within 2 weeks the pain subsided by 80% and now I am able to walk again. She is AMAZING!!! She is very knowledgeable about your body as a whole and treats you as such, not just the one issue that you came in to see her for. She takes the time to explain in detail what the issues are and how to go about treating them. I have never been to another doctor that took as much time as Dr. Williamson did with me during all my visits. You will not go wrong and I cannot recommend her highly enough. She is a miracle worker for sure. Thank you for all you do for us Dr. Williamson. God Bless. Lilly

I like Dr. Williamson
Dr. Williamson is very thorough and goes over all blood workups, as well as answering questions, regarding my issues. I have asked her to be my primary Dr. My only issue is that she does not take medicare insurance. I think that it would be a great thing to do so. N. Geigert, 9/2022

Finally a superb Doctor
I highly recommend Dr Williamson!! She’s amazing. If you are fed up with traditional medicine and you understand that traditional medical doctors are prescription doctors and you want a doctor that practices curative medicine I highly recommend Dr. Williamson. She got to the bottom of my Long haul Covid symptoms. Her prescriptions were a mix of some pharmaceuticals and some natural medicines alongside changes in my diet that made a huge impact on my recovery. They were all for short term use to cure rather than to sustain. It worked.

Wonderful physician
Dr. Williamson is one of the most knowledgeable physicians I have been to in a very long time. She is very kind and reassuring and took time to go through my health concerns and blood work. I felt so good after my initial appointment…knowing I made the right choice. I feel blessed that I found her!

Thorough
Dr. Williamson is a fantastic doctor. She did bloodwork that no other doctor has thought of doing. I highly recommend her. She takes time to listen and she will do more research on your condition. She will suggest the right diet for your condition and get you the right nutritional supplements to combat your condition. She is very caring and she called me to see how it was working and to see if I needed anything.

Dr. Linette was very thorough and kind and she knows her stuff being a regular M.D. and an E.R. Doc. She was able to get my Mom off statins and we added in quality Organic uncut no additives Bergamot and it made her levels perfect!

I started going to Dr. Linette Williamson, because I was always tired and stressed out emotionally. Dr. Williamson, listened, ran some blood tests and gave me daily nutritional, stress reducing and simple exercises. Once my tests came back I was put on the appropriate doses of hormones and she made sure that I was taking my Vitamin D, Magnesium etc. It was an overall simple life changes. Within 2 months, I felt a difference, by the 6 month, I was a different person. She had recommended that I try NAD IV therapy to help with additional creation of energy in my body. NAD enhances my mitochondrial cellular processes. After the 1st IV, my body felt better... kind of relived, that it finally had some help. After 10 doses, I had no sugar cravings, I slept better, my vision was better, my work outs were stronger, lost weight and my energy throughout my body felt satisfied, calm and functional.

Very thoughtful, thorough and easy to talk to. She is invested in finding the best solution for our health. Functional medicine recommendations are not always easy to follow but she helps explain why and how to get better.

Too many blood tests, too long a wait both in the office and the examining room, difficult to make an appointment, must come in for blood test results even when normal which costs money for the extra visit, unpleasant office staff, always sitting behind computer focused on it rather than on me, hesitant to touch me and rarely did, vitamins and supplements prescribed seemed to make things worse rather than better
