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.

Extremely rude.
It was a long 3 days with our NICU baby, he was improving but his sodium levels were still very low. We had been using formula through his feeding tube until my milk supply came in, I worked hard to pump every 2 hours and finally got my supply in .. I was so hopeful that it would help my baby after everything he's been through. Dr Figueroa came in and FLAT out told me that my breast milk would not help my baby. Id only wanted to try for the day to see if it would and asked politely ' since he's been on formula this whole time, and his sodium levels haven't improved, could I please try to see if my milk will help his sodium levels ?' He straight up told me ' your breast milk will NOT help him, don't you care about your babies brain? You can give him your milk but it doesn't look good on our end ' insinuating that it would make me look like I didn't care about my babies welfare if I nursed him or even bottle fed him breast milk. He was absolutely belittling me and made me cry.
What went well
  • Appointment scheduling
  • Staff friendliness
  • Wait times
What could be improved
  • I didn't feel respected
  • Didn't listen or answer questions
  • Didn't explain conditions well
  • Appointment was rushed
  • Didn't trust the provider's decisions
