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.

Dr. Garreau is AMAZING!! She took so much time to go over my diagnosis and treatment options. Highly recommend.

What an amazing doctor. She took time to listen to all the details of my in depth history and was very patient, kind and compassionate. She really cares about her patients and has a wonderful bedside manner. She really helped put me at ease in a very stressful, unsure time. I felt like I was in the best care possible!

The best help at a hard time
Dr. Garreau took her time in our appointments, called me to answer questions, did a perfect job on my lumpectomy, and followed up with care and kindness. She’s incredibly competent, caring, and present. I’m so lucky to have had her as my surgeon and care provider!

Dr. Garreau was professional and I really needed her guidance by the time I met her. I had seen 2 other providers before who were not able to definitely give me answers. She was prepared with my medical history before I arrived. She reviewed details that no other doctor has done before. She provided me with a plan to move forward and felt like I was in the best hands. I wish I could bottle her up and have her as all my providers!

Dr Garreau performed my double mastectomy last November. I had cancer like my mom and sister and was in panic mode. She was kind, compassionate and extremely talented as a surgeon. She personally called me back to answer questions and made me feel that I was in the best hands possible. I just saw her again today and she met me with a hug and a smile!! She is a wonderful Dr. and a great person!! I recommend her for anyone needing her surgical skills!

Dr. Garreau is very kind, compassionate, detailed and thoroughly listens when you talk to her. She is one of the best doctors I have seen in recent years. She did a breast surgery for me and I had a very great experience. Thanks Dr. Garreau!
