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.

She is a very good doctor, patient to listen.

TSH Obsessed and Ignorant About Latest Research
Kept lowering my thyroid dose to the point I've gained weight, have brain fog and no energy. I was on a prescription for over 20 years without problems. She doesn't understand the uselessness of TSH testing in established thyroid disease. Does not test Reverse T3. Is not up to date on latest thyroid research.
