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 THE BEST! PERSONABLE! SMART! GREAT doc! I am a surgeon and I choose my doctors VERY carefully! She's a winner!

This "doctor" told my husband I was "toxic". I was recovering from a head injury and stroke. She is unprofessional. To think she actually would say that about a patient to her husband makes her unfit to be a doctor. God complex anyone? In my view she is inhumane and nasty. Watch out Karen; Karma is real. You might just have stroke one day and have 1/2 your memory wiped out. Don't go to her unless you like being abused by an arrogant person that has zero empathy. I fired her later on.

The Dr. did not refer us immediately to the relevant specialist, although validating the serious condition. We were given antibiotics for 10 days without any further instructions. If we hadn't followed up ourselves 3 days after the recommended treatment, which was clearly not working due to the severe stage my husband was at, we could have had very serious complications. The appointment with the relevant specialist came only after 4days, thus my husband ended up in ICU
