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.

For nearly six years, Dr. Alfonso has been the steadfast guardian of my children's health, providing exceptional care that has earned our trust and gratitude. From routine check-ups to moments of concern, she has consistently exhibited a level of professionalism, expertise, and genuine compassion that sets her apart.Dr. Alfonso possesses a remarkable ability to connect with both children and parents, fostering a comfortable and supportive environment in which concerns can be openly discussed and addressed. Her approachable demeanor and genuine interest in the well-being of her young patients have helped to alleviate any anxieties and instill confidence in her medical guidance.

Flawless! Best doc... Dr. Alfonso is kind, patient, and listens to our concerns (in this case, my daughter's injured foot). We did not wait long, the staff members were all really nice, and we felt safe.
