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 amazing! I’ve never met a better Gynecologist. I’m happy that she was on call the day I was induced. Compassionate, sweet, funny, smart and loved by her staff. We loved her! Thank you!!!!!!!!!!!

Humanized birth!
my first daughter was born by cesarean delivery (another doctor) and my second was a normal delivery thanks to Dr Kanisha.. Many doctors wanted to do another cesarean section again, but she respected my dream of a normal delivery and finally I got it! thank you very much Dr!

Dr Sierra-Rios was the on call hospitalist at Winnie Palmer the day I was scheduled for induction. We were very nervous but as soon as she walked in we felt the good energy. She explained the process to us, offered options and respected our choices. She asked us to trust the process and she was right, our baby girl Emma was born that same night. We were happy that she was there to share this moment with us. I wish she had an office so we could follow up with her. Our prayers were answered, God sent us a smart, compassionate, funny and all around fabulous doctor. Thank you Dr Sierra-Rios!

Dr. Sierra Rios is the most amazing physician and woman. I had an eventful pregnancy with our daughter involving surgery and many weeks of bedrest and she was by my side supporting and encouraging my family and I every step of the way. Her attention to details, assessment skills, immense knowledge, and genuine compassion are what separate her from all other physicians. Dr. Sierra never hesitated to respond to any of my concerns (at all hours of the day and night) and always comforted my worries with such compassion. When it finally came time for our daughter to be born, Dr. Sierra made sure her delivery truly felt like a 'birth'day party and it was a moment I will cherish forever. I look forward to seeing Dr Sierra for many years to come. I highly recommend her to my family, friends and anyone in need of an OB/GYN. Thank you to Dr. Sierra for everything

I’ve been a patient for over a year and the staff is fantastic and friendly. Special shoutout to my favorite physician, Dr Sierra-Rios and to the Pregnancy coordinator Julie. Both of them have gone above and beyond to help me and address my concerns. We are hoping Dr Sierra is our delivering doctor as we all love her. Thank you for all you do!!

Dr Rios was A-M-A-Z-I-N-G! I came to her due to an issue that I've had for many years, she listened to my concerns with patience, explained her thought process and made sure I understood everything. I felt like I was talking to a friend which makes a huge difference when dealing with such sensitive matters. I had to bring my little one with me to the appointment and she made her part of the visit. I will be coming back and recommending her to all my dear friends!

I took my 19 year old daughter to Dr. Sierra for her first Gyn visit. She has been having terrible cramping and discomfort with her period, but was a nervous wreck to go to an gynecologist. Dr. Sierra was amazing with her. She was kind and patient and put her at ease. I highly recommend her!!

I felt compelled to leave a review for Dr Sierra-Rios after I witnessed first hand how amazing this doctor is. She made my daughter in law at ease the moment she walked into the room on her delivery day. She provided us with a magical delivery experience. Very respectful, smart, funny and compassionate. We are all recommending her to family and friends. We thank God for her! Many blessings Dr Sierra-Rios!

Ignorant "doctor" lets woman who've had multiple births already, pass their due date even at high risk ask and then make them suffer hours in labor before inducing. How can you live with yourself taking a life of a mother and almost her baby too. She will never know her mother because of YOU!

We met Dr Sierra a few weeks ago because my daughter receives care at the Celebration office. We were delighted to find such an energetic, knowledgeable doctor. She has empathy, compassion and makes you feel at ease. She was kind enough to answer all of our questions. We would recommend her any day.
