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.

I've been a patient of Dr. Zuniga's for 7 years and will stay with her forever, if possible. An excellent physician - caring, attentive to patient concerns, thorough, explains test results in a clear way that I can understand, offers guidance for ways I can improve my health. I never feel rushed during a visit and she follows up if needed. I highly recommend her!

She has been my Physician for approximately 30years or more. Where ever she relocated to, I followed. You don't meet to many Dr.'s that like to listen to your problem and hear you at the same time. I recommend her to everyone, problem is, half the time she is loaded up with patients. Dr. Zuniga is also a WONDERFUL and COMMITTED to helping her PATIENTS.
