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.

Does not listen to patient. Has a one size fits all approach and if it doesn't work, has no further recommendations or options for treatment. Just wants to prescribe more medications.

Dr. Henderson is an incredible doctor; he's both personable and incredibly thorough. He's great at making me feel reassured that everything I bring up about pregnancy is normal and he tells me what would not be normal. He clearly knows what he's talking about AND he's so kind. He spends as much time as need be with his patients, never rushing them out as if hes too busy. I actually feel important. He will be the only OB I go to for anything.
