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 Sikkema saw my grandson. She is not his regular dr. He was ill and there was an opening. She communicated very well. She seemed very knowledgable and was very pleasant. She answered all questions and worked well with children.

Dr Sikkema is a great doctor. She is never in rush and has time to answer all our questions. We appreciate that she doesn’t type anything on the computer during the conversation. She always smiley and super polite. Definitely recommend her.

×Post a ResponseAre you Dr. Sikkema?
Dr Sikkema seems adequate to do her job as a doctor in the respect that she is knowledgeable about medicine and diagnosis. She needs improvement with communication between herself and her residents and between her residents and patients. She seems overly confused when things get lost in translation. She has a lack of experience with allowing her emotions and attitude show to her patients and speaking abruptly. This behavior reflects from her onto the staff and creates a negative environment
