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.

Dr. Pribbenow listens and if she can’t help, she points me in the right direction to find someone who can.

Very Caring and Knowledgable
I have had Bridgette as my doctor for many years. She is always very patient and knowledgeable. Never rushes and is genuinely concerned with my issues. I am elderly and feel lucky to have her as my physician.

Dr. Pribbenow is great! She is honest and always listens to what I have to say and asks for my input in treatment choices. I have never had a bad experience with her. She has helped me through some tough mental health situations.

She is worst. She does not properly proceeds to diagnose the concerned problem or pays attention what patient is complaining. She just plain ignores when patient is explaining worry. She does not even have courtesy to write proper explanation of diagnosis in visit notes or providing referrel to specialist. I believe whatever positive reviews found online are all paid reviews. Please do not waste your time with her. Find someone else. Only reason i had to stick to her because i could not get appointments with different doctors when i was in hurry.

I have been seeing Dr Pribbenow for about 6 years and have been very happy with her. She listens to my concerns and always has an option for treatment that I have not considered. She treats people with respect and dignity. She is also very honest. My husband also goes to her and has great results. Both of us are healthier and in better physical shape with her help. But you should all pick a different doctor, because it is hard to get an appointment with her she is so busy!

If you are looking for someone who is progressive, keep looking. She only believes in Western Medicine. She doesn't listen to your needs in relation to anything dealing with mental health. She will prescribe you something that has the exact same negative effects you are trying to fix. My last appointment, she raised her voice, cut me off, and frankly wouldn't listen. Instead, she made negative assumptions. If you have problems past physical, you do not want to use this person. Absolutely ridicul

I've been seeing Dr. Pribbenow for over 7 years. My visits have focused on various issues and Dr. Pribbenow has been great! Honestly, I've never felt this loyal to a specific Dr. before, but feel that our personalities and her technique match up. She is direct but empathetic, and I love that. Recently, I've referred my mom to her, as well.

My daughter former doctor booted her for missing 3 appointments (the oldest date being 11/2015) despite her knowledge of my daughter new onset of severe depression and suicidal ideation, anxiety, lack of concentration and ADD diagnoses. My daughter expressed concerns about Dr. Pribbenow being overly opinionated , judgmental and lacking empathy and felt that she couldn't be as open with her about things due to her impartial ways!
