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.

Simply the best!
Denise Castellanos is an incredible midwife who made my pregnancy and delivery experience truly special. She combined medical expertise with genuine care, always listening to my needs and ensuring I felt informed and supported. During labor, her calm, confident presence and skill made all the difference, creating a safe and empowering environment. I couldn’t have asked for better care and am forever grateful to Denise for helping bring my son into the world. Highly recommend!

Highly recommended!
Denise is such a wonderful midwife who communicates wonderfully with her patients and shows a lot of care and concern. She doesn’t push certain things on her patients like other doctors do. She makes the patient feel very comfortable and important. She is the first I have felt like this before and this is my fourth pregnancy.

We love Denise!
Denise has always been sweet and warm and happy! She is very thorough and explains everything clearly which I like the most. She makes sure I am comfortable and all questions are addressed before I leave her office. I have been seeing Denise for 4 years now since my first pregnancy and would always come back for her!

At every visit, I live just how friendly and happy she is AT ALL TIMES! I love that she gives heart felt advise without imposing/demanding or forcing ANYTHING on her patients. She has grown to be a dear friend. Hospitals need more healthcare providers like her.

Right off the bat she was wonderful. Everything she did was thorough; read notes, ask questions, took notes, asked appropriate follow up questions. She went through all of the items I needed to do for follow up on my own. Also the entire time she asked for consent for each element of the exam that she was doing. She was gentle in her touch and approach. She was compassionate and empathetic to my history and concerns. I wish I had this type of doctor for any specialty that I needed with my medical history. Kudos!!!!!
