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. McGarvey is knowledgeable and professional. She listens to your concerns. She explains your condition very well. She is concerned about your overall health. I would highly recommend her.

Great doctor, great practice
Dr. McGarvey always listens to and regards what I have to say, answers all my questions, and is extremely responsive to messages left on the portal. She’s concerned with my comfort, willing to tweak meds and try different things. And a word about the practice – they are practically fanatics about taking patients on time, which is a good thing!
