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 honestly love Dr. Pela however the last time I went in I dont know if it was because it was during closing time 2-3 pm… but everyone was really being a nice-rude Especially the nurse “ you could have given her some laxative at home but I guess you know your child and if you want to bring her in then I guess thats what you do”. The vibe was off unlike any other time Ive been. “ it really might have been the day but I was disappointed by how everyone treated me and my daughter because she did not look sick “. I waited over an hour and they rushed me out within no time.

Dr. Pela gets to the bottom of things and gets to the point. She puts her heart into her patients and their health. Dr. Pela is very great with my children and if she notices anything to concern her, or if the parents are curious, she will do anything to make sure everything is well. Dr. Pela has a sweet spirit and a cheerful mind. She also will do anything to get at least one smile or giggle from her patients before appointments are over and fills the children with love. My kids love her!!
