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.

She’s a quack that should not be allowed to see anyone and needs turned in and license be revoked. She kept telling me my knee was fine and I had to switch back to a competent dr to see I had a tear and all she would do is say nothing is wrong and prescribe me medicine I’m not able to take she knows nothing about her patients what so ever nor does she care about them.

No bedside manor. Doesn't listen to what patients are actually saying, lies about and/or is ignorant of basic reproductive health treatments, loses patience with patients who are unable to respond to questions when in pain (pain inflicted by her), unable to read simple X-Rays, dismisses obvious health concerns unrelated to weight if patient is overweight. Office staff, while courteous, are incompetent.
