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.

Compassionate Care
Dr. Lawson and her assistant Jessica were wonderful at explaining everything and helping me see all of my options right after my diagnosis of breast cancer. They took time to hear me and I never felt rushed. Their expertise is matched by their sweetness, sincerity and compassion. I'm so grateful for them!

Dr Lawson was great before surgery but when it came to seeing me after surgery not so much in fact I have not seen or talk with her since the morning of surgery I did expect to see her at least once since I had a bilateral mastectomy when I asked staff they were so rude and ugly telling me she was too busy I don’t understand the problem but I would never use her again

Wonderful experience. I was seen quickly and treated with compassion and respect by all of Dr Lawson’s staff. Dr Lawson was kind, reassuring and did an amazing job with my biopsy. There was no significant pain, and she made the procedure as easy physically and emotionally as possible. Highly recommend!!

I've never been treated with as much compassion by any doctor ever. She was right there through the whole experience reassuring me and making sure there was as little pain as possible. She is very concerned that you get the best care possible and she encourages you to be informed for yourself about all that's going on with your health. I love her!

An excellent doctor/surgeon. Smart and on top of things, she partnered with me in my treatment. Put me at ease and didn't browbeat with her intellect--in fact, she's very nice.
