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.

Worst pediatrician ever
Delivered a beautiful baby girl who I planned on breastfeeding exclusively. She came out with slightly heightened bilirubin count and required blue light therapy (according to hospital protocol at the time). I refused to formula feed and wanted to breastfeed her plenty but was restricted due to the hospital insisting I keep her under blue light instead of feed as I pleased so she didn’t get a lot of time at the breast. They only gave her 30 minutes out of the blue light at a time. It was a lose-lose situation for her and myself due to hospital protocol. This pediatrician was the worst because she threatened to send me home without my baby if I didn’t formula feed her. I said absolutely not and had to advocate for myself and her to leave the hospital together. She made my birth experience bad by doing this. It was awful of her. Do not recommend! Btw, my baby was fine once I was able to feed her anytime I pleased and have her near a window with plenty of sun. She is a healthy 4 YO now!
