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.

Told insurance won’t cover Difficult to schedule
Told me insurance won’t cover a medically necessary procedure. Has been so difficult to work with for a standard procedure that was recommended by multiple doctors. She requires me to come in to re diagnose me (each time) and then tells me “insurance won’t cover that”. I had to call four to five times each go round, just to convince them to try* to send it in and see if it’s covered. *it was covered twice. She still causes me to schedule and over explain it *is covered. Terrible service and caused me health issues by delaying procedures I needed. Told to just deal with the side effects of iron pills though it causes terrible pain and GI issues, (I have chrons and IB).

I just love Dr. Guo she essentially saved my life. if it was not for her concern, compassion, and caring personality I do not think I would be alive today. She is the best at what she does. She breaks things down so that you understand and will always consider your concerns.

Dr. Guo is one of the most caring and compassionate doctors I have ever encountered. I had already had a lot of medical issues before my cancer diagnosis. I was probably considered one of the high maintenance patients. She has always been there for me when I had issues. I am thankful to have her as my oncologist.

My father was treated by Dr. Guo for stage IV lung cancer several years ago. He eventually passed away after being on treatment for 4 years. We had a great experience with Dr. Guo. She is very knowledgeable, thorough and she takes the time to explain test results. She always returned phone calls. We are very thankful we had her as oncologist. When one of our family friends was diagnosed with cancer, we recommended her.

I just loved her. She was so personable and took as much time s you needed to speak to her. I did not wait more than 5 minutes to get placed into a room. After they did blood pressure and all, she was in within minutes. I wish ALL doctors were like her.
