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.

Many thanks to Dr. Cooney
During a recent visit to LVHN Emergency center for a suspected appendicitis the ER doc ordered a CAT scan that revealed a growth in my colon. He then told me that both the appendix and the mass had to be removed. Soon after a surgical team, headed by Dr. Cooney, appeared to my beside. She and another member were very calming, straight forward and confident that they would remove the mass, along with a healthy margin of tissue for testing and that I would be fine. It turned out to be my lucky day after all ! Without being overly dramatic, she and the team probably saved my life because it was cancer. Dr. Cooney called my wife, spent considerable time on the phone with her and explained the situation and was very assuring to her. She was also at my side going into surgery and after surgery she called my wife again and explained the whole procedure. I went home 2 days later and am now fully recovered. Thank you Dr. Leahna Cooney.
