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.

Awesome!!
Her clinic is always so nice and do amazing work! I have suggested the practice to multiple people :)

A great experience
A very friendly and welcoming atmosphere, and I've felt supported in getting transition services. The office has plenty of information for outside services you might be looking to get too (therapy, surgery, etc). Dr. Luikenaar and the staff have a very laid back vibe, which I can see not being for everyone, but I personally like it.

Supportive and direct
I like how direct the staff is, they get thing's done in a timely manner. Dr Rix is fast and efficient when giving me info and answering questions, I've been going to her for 4 year's and never had an issue. When her Medical Assistant took my blood, she found my vein quickly, didn't hurt, didn't bruise. I love Rebirth and their staff
