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.

This Doctor is worthless in my opinion. She has Misdiagnosed my daughter more than once. i will never recommend her to anyone she was the doctor that came to see me and my daughter when she was born and i was told by another doctor in the same doctors office that she doesnt know anything or what she is talking about

I am baffled how someone could leave such a negative review about Dr. Wirthlin. She works in a building with 5 other providers, and she is the only one we take our children to. You cannot please everyone in the world. I have trusted her with my children's lives, and they are still very alive and healthy. She is an excellent doctor and I would recommend her to anyone.

She takes the time to work with my adolescent - discussing treatments, causes, stress reduction, etc. - as part of the process of maturing. We have been very pleased with her care and actually followed her to Eureka Pediatrics.

This practitioner uses racial/ ethnic and socio-economic profiling to fuel unfounded outrageous allegations, she was reported to the medical board for malpractice. When confronted with her false allegations she did not have the decency to admit her bigoted mistake. Her personality is rife with self-righteousness, I'm sorry I ever made the mistake of trusting her with my precious children.
