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. Nylander is an amazing and very knowledgeable pediatrician. She listens intently and truly cares about each of my children. We have been patients for years and I have never met a better doctor/health care provider in my life. Her bedside manner is impeccable, she has solved many hard situations for us and her diagnosis is spot on. She listens and caters to what makes us feel comfortable and we trust her professional opinion completely. I refer her to everyone and would recommend her highly!

She's a dedicated expert pediatrician. She is also kind and gives time to her patients. I brought my 2 boys to her for a first time physical and I am very happy that she is their pediatrician. I highly recommend Dr. Kirstina as an excellent pediatrician.

We looove Dr. Nylander. She has such a wonderful bedside manner. She doesn't push or scold and she's very understanding. She's recently left Mia Bella Pediatrics, so we're waiting to see where she goes next.
