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 really a good dr. She really care about her patients and takes the time out to check you for everything you came in for. She doesn't rush u in and out like most dr.

Thank you to the person who gave her one star. I am moving to the area and looking for a doctor that will take the time to actually evaluate me and treat me correctly. Too many doctors just throw antibiotics at everyone and don't take the time to do what is right. I will definitely consider this doctor, so thank you.

Great doctor. Shes not a pill pusher who will hand out antibiotics but takes her time to explain what you can do at home. I felt she cared about me.

I went for a sinus infection. She gave me a RX for cough medicine and told me to take Advil Cold and Sinus which is over the counter. I was already taking a cold and flu medication and ibuprofen when I went. She would not give me antibiotics. She said to come back after 7 days if I was not better. I just spent money and time for nothing!! I will never go back to her!!

I can't say enough about the quality of care I receive from Dr. Skaug. She takes time with you to go over all questions you may and is VERY thorough with her explanations. I feel so safe entrusting my and my family's medical care to her.
