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's a great doctor. Cares, shows compassion and is a people person. She strives to be the doctor that either finds out exactly what's going on with your health or will find someone who will. She's definitely one of a kind and has a good heart. My family and I could never fully express how much we are grateful that she's our doctor.

Dr Drayton tailors her approach to my specific needs. She is forthcoming and tells me exactly what I need to know, and exactly what health needs are necessary. Dr Drayton is friendly and affable, and puts her patients at ease right away. She maintains my complete trust and confidence. The staff at her practice are really nice folks, too.

I found Dr. Drayton very attentive and concerned about my needs. She listened attentively. I was able to see her quickly because she is new to the practice. She was not rushed and allowed me to explain my long medical history. I embarrassed myself by assuming that she she is a nurse practitioner rather than an MD.

Dr. Drayton listens, asks questions, and dispenses information in a straightforward manner. She does not rush her patient; she spends the necessary time to hear what the concern is. Her questions are insightful and cut to the problem.
