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.

I left my IUD in longer then recomended and she spent the visit shaming me for that, even while she was romoving it. When she found out I was not going to use another form of birth control because I wanted to get pregnant, she scoffed at me.

After I didnt say anything she finally said " if you're seriously considering having a baby, I recomend you take folic acid." I have been on it for 3 months but this lady had already decided everything she needed to know about me from a 6 month over due IUD. I have a great state job, own my own house and 33 yo. I want to make a baby, but apparently leaving in your IUD 6 months too long makes a person unfit. I left and filed a griev
