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.

An Excellent Doctor and Person
Dr. Hammond is thoughtful, compassionate and thorough and gives both my husband and me whatever time is necessary to address the problem at hand. She is conservative in her use of medications and procedures and really cares that we understands her recommendations.

She is wonderful. Patiently explains all options and proactively addresses any issues. She will often email or call in her off hours to discuss test results

I have been going to Dr. Hammond since she started in Orinda and she is the first person who actually cares and takes the time to make sure you understand every thing that she recommends. At times we do not always agree but after a good discussion I am usually won over with her expertises. It is depressing how many doctors only are interested in seeing how many patients they can see in a day which I am sure is driven by the insurance companies.

Absolutely fabulous doctor! Completely professional and knowledgeable, with an excellent bedside manor. Works hard, even on weekends and days off, to make sure all is ok and everything is followed up on. Very sympathetic and concerned about the patient and good at explaining things. She works with you to come to a soluition.
