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 an excellent all around heart doctor. She takes her time answering questions, is thorough and is excellent and on top of everything.

Dr. Saunders is knowledgeable, and professional. My sister is developmentally disabled, and the doctor was patient and caring toward her. I am also Saunders' patient and I have only good things to say about her.
