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. Doran is the best doctor I have ever had. She took the time and effort to take care of me when no other doctor would. She saved me from a lot of pain and a lot issues and still works hard with the complications that come up from my illness. I cannot recommend her enough and cannot say enough good things about her.

She was very thorough when we found out that I had low amniotic fluid, monitored me with weekly ultrasounds and scheduled then performed a flawless c-section. Great bedside manor and surgical skills.

I looooove Dr. Doran ....her spirit and her interest in the patient and making sure her patients are well taken care of. The one thing that really made me love Dr. Doran is she believe in God.

She saved my life
Dr. Doran was on duty when I arrived at the hospital with preeclampsia in December 2019. She was the first doctor to talk to me as an equal and capable of understanding my situation. She saved my life and helped me find something to laugh about during my recovery. I'll always remember her laughing when I told her the wild dreams I was having during recovery were like a trip to Burning Man. It was clear the nurse had no clue what Burning Man was, and that made it even better.Thank you, Dr. Doran for listening to me and for helping me recover.

Wonderful doctor
I consider myself lucky to have found Dr. Doran. She was highly skilled, and she dealt with my significant anxiety over a (relatively simple) procedure she was performing with compassion and patience. I've been to GYNs before who just kind of expect you to deal with it when even a checkup can be uncomfortable at best and painful at worst. Not only did she adjust her approach based on my real-time feedback, but she put me at ease at all times. Highly recommend!

She's kind
She's nice, though if you are going for a major surgery be warned you'll only get 3 days of pain medicine. Then they think you need to suffer thru it. The office manager could use a refresher on being kind to patients. I'll be leaving reviews on every site to let everyone know.

Dr. Doran went above and beyond and treated me so so well. I had to have a hysterectomy and found out I actually had cancer. She took very good care of me and made sure I was very comfortable and reassured I would be in great hands to the gyno oncologist I see now.

Dr. Doran is an amazing doctor. Her care is the best. She is kind and compassionate. I get anxiety going to any doctor. She made me feel comfortable. I had lived with my problems for a long time. Dr. Doran explained my options thoroughly and performed a robotic laparoscopic hysterectomy. I had minimal pain post op. I feel great!
