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.

Awful
Dr. Rios lacked basic bedside manner. I went to her for a procedure during my pregnancy. She came in, did what she needed to and left the room as soon as she could. No explanation, no going over the procedure.

Awful
If I could leave no stars I would. She this doctors bedside manner is atrocious. She seemed bothered to even be in the same room with me and I have seen her twice! She doesn’t communicate well with patients, is very dismissive and not calming at all. I’m not the hugest fan of being at the doctors office and my experience with this inpatient doctor, is why. Luckily she is NOT my regular doctor, but I know to never go to her again. And I do also believe that she lost a sample that was supposed to get tested in the lab and will not tell me . And that speaks volumes to me. If you can go to another doctor, please do. If you can’t, don’t get a samples that need to get tested at the lab.. 9/10 she will lose it.

Tone-deaf doctor who won't listen to patient concerns about extreme pain caused by diagnosed chronic pain disease. Felt like I was talking to a wall. Refused to believe my pain (despite having surgery for the disease AT KAISER) and continued to deflect. Had the gall to tell me I would not find help elsewhere when it comes to pain management. Doctors like this need to be removed from their profession--it is utterly barbaric to treat pain patients this way. DO NOT go to this doctor if you genuinely suffer from pain. You'd think a female physician would have more integrity when it comes to women-specific pain, but rather the complete opposite occurred. Reported a formal complain with this doctor.
