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.

Not a listener. Wants to push medicines . Left her
Not listening to me and charged to well visits which should be free. Glad I found a better doctor who cares.

Doesn’t listen to what you’re trying to explain, not open minded or sympathetic at all. I have been told by three other medical professionals that I need to find a new doctor based on how she’s treated and responded to my issues. Does not practice Community Health Network Patients First Value at all.

Dr Wakefield listened to me (and my husband when he went for his physical) and was very friendly, courteous and professional. I hated my doctor had to change and could no longer see patients, but have become very confident of Dr Wakefield's abilities!

Very intelligent. Doesn't waste your time very good with diagnoses. Saw me twice when my regular Dr didn't have openings and I considered changing to Dr Wakefield. She last diagnosed me with probable bursitis in left hip & referred me to orthopedic Dr for cortisone injection last fall. Would highly recommend Dr Tara Wakefield.
