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.

first visit - Dr. spent 4 minutes with me, sent me off for test and never followed up. Had her nurse call. After 3 messages to the nurse to have the dr. call me and one formal online letter - never received a call back. Kim - the nurse, responded - once I was told "she has patients today and I can help you," but my questions were not answered. Then I was told that she doesn't call back but I could make another appt to come back and talk to her. Then a letter was not read by the dr. DO NOT REC.

Dr Mercado was thorough in checking me. She took her time answering all my questions and didn't rush me. She showed me my test results and walked me through it so I can understand her explanation. She also tried to connect with me on a personal level which I appreciated. I was seen right away. I recommend Dr. Mercado.
