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.

Right away I liked her as a doctor because she took care of things where others had dragged there feet. She has been willing to try medicines for me at my request even though insurance companys sometimes denied her requests. Over time ive learned to trust in her judgement. I dont always follow her advice to the letter but she continues to ride me about the things that she knows are best for me. If anything i wish i could be a better patient.
