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.

Short wait & very thorough exam & all my questions were answered without being rushed .

I have seen Dr. DeJesus for approximately 15 years now. Yes sometimes the wait is a little longer than usual but she never has rushed or hurried me through her office. She takes as much time with me as is needed. She is very thorough, personable, very much the professional and more importantly I feel that she really cares about my health. She never hesitates to call in a specialist if needed. I wouldn't want to see anybody but her for my medical needs.

Dr. Dejesus has been my primary physician for years. She listens and has a comforting presence. She is thorough and does not hesitate to make references to a specialist if she thinks it is necessary. She also responds quickly to unscheduled requests and ensures I am current on vaccinations. Great Doctor!

I became a patient of Dr. DeJesus when she started her practice at Baptist South a long time ago. I trust her impeccably with all my healthcare needs. She tries so very hard to keep me well as I am a diabetic patient. Testing a1c/ and other blood issues that I have. If I need a specialist she and her staff get me to them as quickly as possible. Dr. DeJesus and her staff are awesome and I would recommend her to anyone who is seeking a physician.
