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.

Worst doctor
Told me to go to the ER, just for them to call her and her say to take more birth control. Cost me $2900, she has no idea what she’s doing.

Dangerous Dr. BEWARE
My daughters now grow older without their mother figure since her death. Personally we will never forgive her. Even more so toward any website that protects these Dr from showing their medical malpractice suits that have been filed against them.

There are only a small handful of OB/GYNs in the St. Mary's area. I was a patient at the other large women's care office located near the hospital for 6+ years. My last annual exam (with a female midwife) resulted in an assault, trip to the ER and a police report. It took me over two years and pregnancy to muster the courage to find another OB/GYN. I asked around and a neighbor recommend Dr. Neal. At my first appointment I explained to Dr. Neal my anxiety regarding being examined again. She explained what she was doing, didn't rush the appointment, and answered all questions I had. At my request, a nurse has been in the room with Dr. Neal at every appointment. Once during my pregnancy I needed to be seen for something that had come up, Dr. Neal was able to see me the following day. The office staff are always hospitable and friendly, especially Emily and Angie. You may have to call a few times to get through but I assume the receptionist is busy with someone else. If I leave a mess

Check up room felt nasty and checkup was quick. Didn't take a urine sample like my past obgyn did to make sure everything was ok.
