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.

Horrible. She may be an ok Doctor I do not know because she would not schedule any appointments in advance or give actual information via email. Surgery was as foregone conclusion when I met her in early March, but they would not schedule any appointments until the prior one was done. Meaning I was still not scheduled for surgery 2 months later. And told it would be 2 more months for an or date. In the meantime my tumor had grown significantly. I fired her team and contacted senior management for help. This is the only way I got an operation within 6 months. Run the other way if you actually want to be treated before your disease advances.
