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.

You would have a better chance at hospice
The worst choice you can make is to have her as your doctor, it's like playing russian roulette with a fully loaded gun, no empty chamber! Worst experience in my life. She should have negative stars but you have to give one star

My father was assigned to this doctor by the VA. She is by far the worst doctor I have ever encountered. She always comes into the exam room with an unpleasant and unfriendly demeanor and worse of all belittles us. I took him in recently, she ignored his symptoms said it was nothing. It was not anything, I took his to urgent care and they asked me to take him to the ER. If you are a patient of hers, I hope you’ve had a better experience, however we haven’t and I recommend if you haven’t either you request a different doctor, because I am.

This doctors incompetence meant I was stage three when finally diagnosed with colorectal cancer after she misdiagnosed my tumor as a hemorrhoid. In addition, I was present when she acted very unprofessional with staff

She works at the VA, I would have been better off going to a Veterinarian.
