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.

Absolute worst dr ever
She’s uninformed and unwilling to learn about a specific disease. My child has special needs and I’ve NEVER met a more arrogant dr. That knew my child perfectly(so she led herself to believe) she caused harm to my child, her care (or lack of)caused issues that followed him for months. I have never left a bad review and I have never had an issue with any Dr. I hope she stops practicing medicine because there is no place in the specialty for someone who won’t listen to the parent trying to get help for their kid.
