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.

Had to wait a long time to get an appointment as a new patient, but the wait was well worth it. Dr. Flynn and her staff are so competent, comforting and thorough working to get to the cause of the problem and not just taking the "quick and easy route to a diagnosis."

Our family Dr. referred my daughter to Dr. Flynn for a skin condition she has had for several years but getting worse. She spent less than five min in our exam room telling us the same thing our family Dr. has told us all of these yrs. She didn't seem interested or concerned enough to ask any kind of history or treatments we have tried over the years. She obviously diagnosed and treated my daughter before laying eyes on her, but then again I don't recall her even look at her or making eye contac

Very professional, very friendly, very caring. Her nurse was very compassionate as well. She removed a new brown spot from the side of my face that turned out to be benign. I would highly recommend her!!
