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.

Emily Von Scheven was my doctor for 4 1/2 years and changed my life. I was diagonosed with Rheumatoid Arthrits at 7 years old and out of 8 doctors she helped me more than all the others to become more aware of what I had. You have to wait a couple months to get in but Emily changed her schedule to get me in sooner. I drove 4 hours to San Francisco 4 times a year and in every appointment I left feeling like we had accomplished mountains. I'd for sure recommend Dr. Von Scheven to anyone and do!
