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.

Diagnosed both children with HIB without doing any testing, used something serious as a general diagnosis. Simply unacceptable.

There's not enough good I can say about this woman. She was the on-call doctor the day my son was born, and was very patient with me and my wife as new parents. She answered every and all questions that we had and took her time with us and our son. She is very caring and thorough, and we'll treat your child like family.

I won't be taking my child back to this doctor EVER. She is condescending, judgmental and cold. I do not trust her judgement, not as a doctor or as a human being. To keep it short - In a pretty forceful tone, she told me to leave my child crying with his FACE on the FLOOR and when I picked him up she told me "You're going to turn him into a monster if you keep babying him." She diagnosed him with allergies - he's up all night coughing and has green mucus - I don't think that's allergies.

She takes the time to get to know you and your child. She is well educated but also a mother herself. She wants what is best for your child and will not brush off concerns. She is always cheerful and respectful. She takes the time to cover all areas and really listens to both you and your child.

The best pediatrician in the area. We always request Dr. Tera when going to this practice. She's so caring and explains everything and does so well at calming my nerves and worries.
