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.

I always recommend Dr. Fokum because she is the best PCP you could ask for! She partners with her patients so you are always making informed decisions together. When she recommends something, she takes the time to explain why and will happily answer any questions you may have. She is incredibly kind, warm and most importantly, knowledgeable. Plus, her office is fantastic- her Nurse Practitioners, Medical Assistants, and Office Staff all exude her same professionalism, kindness and competence.
