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 am sad to hear Dr. Rice will be retiring. She found health issues no other Dr. Found. I will miss her dearly. Thank you so much Dr. Karen Rice.

Dr Rice was thorough, really listens, ran all necessary tests & diagnosed my condition, right on!! After starting the prescribed meds. , I have my life back, minus all the pain. Previously, my condition was such a terrible, painful mystery,but, now, life’s good again. I have Dr. Rice to thank for that, for sure!

I find it disturbing when patients, who are under the care of an excellent doctor, give negative remarks because that doctor doesn't exhibit a warm and fuzzy bedside manner. Dr. Rice is a little intimidating because she is all business, but isn't that what you want when you see a physician...someone who is serious and knows what they are doing. I find that people are quick to be negative and slow to appreciate. Give me a doctor who is brilliant any day over one who has a great personality!
