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.

Always takes time to answer any questions I might have.

Compassionate Care
From my very first visit Dr. Birdwell made me feel very comfortable. She thoroughly explained everything regarding my diagnosis, and went over several treatment options with me. She never made me feel rushed during appointments, and for that I was very grateful. Surgery went as planned with no complications, and my follow up visit with her was very good.

The best breast surgeon in Texas!
Dr. Birdwell is the most compassionate doctor I have ever known! She is an excellent surgeon who answers all your questions. She always has your interest at heart and it's a comfort to know she is on my side during a most difficult time. I couldn't have gone through any of the surgeries I've had without her by my side.

Dr. Birdwell has such a way of making you feel at ease. She doesn't rush. You don't even feel like a patient. She is very thorough, ask questions and explains everyrhing so easily. Cancer is a horrible disease but having Dr. Birdwell as my surgeon and following me almost 5 yrs, this has been so easy to deal with.
