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 very wonderful good hearted true caring person who shows she cares for her patients

I saw Dr Carter for several years. I had the same complaint during most of the time I saw her. It was never addressed until it became clear I had a big problem. Even then, she tried to avoid seeing me. I saw another doctor who quickly diagnosed uterine cancer. I was not satisfied with Dr Carter's care or should I say lack of care.

I have been seeing Dr. Carter for several years now, and so has my husband. I was fortunate enough to have her recommended to me by my physician who was retiring. Dr Carter is the BEST PCP I have ever had. She even prefers that I get flu shots at her office so her patients can have quality flu shots that she enjoys herself. When she refers me to other doctors/specialists, she sends me to the ones she knows to be the best in the field in Portland, which is where others doctors go.

She only persuades to get her flu shots as they are some special ones so she can keep her money that she payed for them herself .
