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.

Five stars no doubt
She is absolutely amazing. I asked thousands of questions and she answered so kindly with rich details so that I can understand even though I was not familiar with medical terms. She genuinely cared about my concerns and made sure for my follow-ups as well. This was my first time visiting OBGYN in my life and I will never regret my choice to visit here first.

Been seeing Dr Pellar for years.
As always the staff was very friendly and checked me in right away. I’ve been seeing Dr Pellar for years and she’s always very informative, and takes her time to examine me and make sure I understand her follow up care.

I love seeing Dr Pellar. Always so easy and sets my nerves at ease and helps me feel empowered to ask “stupid questions” without judgement at all. Gentle hand and always very clear each step of the way as to what’s happening during the visit or procedure.
