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.

I was feeling awful before I saw Dr. Fitzgerald. I'd seen several other doctors who diagnosed me with chronic fatigue syndrome and fibromyalgia. But Dr. Fitzgerald took me seriously and spent over 2 hours with me! He even entered my symptoms into a computer diagnostic program. The result was really simple. I'd gone through menopause a little early but didn't know it, since I'd had a hysterectomy. Dr. Fitzgerald's prescription for estrogen replacement reversed everything!
