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 have been a client of Dr Franklin for a long time now. But mostly regular check ups etc. but when my heart started acting up her response was incredible call backs within minutes, great advice and quick response emergency surgery all while working around Covid. I can’t say enough about what a caring and smart Doctor she is. The Best.
