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.

She is great!!!
She spent the time needed for me to understand what she was talking about.

Possible Kidney problem
Everyone was very professional and thorough about the procedure. They explained all aspects of the procedure. I could not have asked for a more professional explanation.

I liked that I didn’t have to wait long in the waiting areas. She was very thorough with explaining the purpose of visit and made me feel less scared at why I had to come to her and that what I am doing to protect the only one kidney I have now.
