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.

Dr. Preston's personality was warm and enjoyable, but more than that, her professionalism put me at ease. Her obvious experience and knowledge and her ability to convey it to me in terms I could relate to were superior. She did a stellar job surgically, and was absolutely correct in her considered and researched approach to my situation. I would go back to her in a heartbeat.
