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.

It was the first visit with this provider as my previous doctor left the system. She was prompt , pleasant , and informative. Stated many times that if my situation should change to call her and she would she me immediately. This was re- assuring.

Dr. Wu has been the doctor who kept me going thru throat cancer and feeling hopeful and safe about receiving radiation and I was a lot of extra work with all the medical problems I have. Thank you for keeping me going with all Henry Ford Hospital doctors.
