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.

Best OB GYN in town!
I have been seeing Dr. Tidwell for over 25 years. She is such a caring person and makes you feel very comfortable. Her offices are highly organized and her staff is exceptional. If you visit her you will never go anywhere else. I can’t say enough good things about her practices.

My granddaughter, who suffers great anxiety and panic attacks, was given the most kind and understanding by all staff, including Dr. Tidwell. She carefully listened, and understood, her need for her complicated medical problems as well as the special needs for her emotional state. She is an exceptional listener.

Great office and staff... but (sorry) Dr Tidwell is a dud. She is all business. Cold. Not what I want of a Gyn doctor. Spare yourself and keep looking.

I have been a patient of Dr Tidwell for almost 14 years. She always takes time to talk before the exam asking about my family and how things are going. She has a calm, sweet, & patient demeanor. Once when I needed a procedure performed she was so compassionate and understanding talking me through everything with a soft kind voice. I have referred dozens of friends to her and they all love her. So thankful to have found her when we moved to Columbus.
