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. Santos twice saved my life. She sent me to the emergency room in 2/2020 and ordered scans, revealing stage 3 ovarian cancer (which my GI doctor had misdiagnosed). I was able to get treatment vs. dying. She found two vitamin deficiencies in 2009 and intervened prior to my having a heart attack or stroke. She is caring, professional and a great doctor.
