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.

Be careful! I had an awful experience with Dr. O'Connell. She allowed several observers (students?) into the room when I was having an outpatient procedure without asking or even telling me beforehand. I had disclosed to her in advance that I am a survivor of rape and that gynecology exams and procedures are very stressful and difficult for me. I would not have agreed to having 6 people in the room had I been asked if it was okay with me. Dr. O'Connell and the observers proceeded to discuss my fear (I was doing yoga breathing to stay calm) as if I wasn't present. I felt exposed and humiliated. I am confused as to why a trained professional would behave the way Dr. O'Connell did. I am grateful she resolved the issue I was having but it took me two years to seek gynecological care again. I am relieved that my new provider is quite sensitive and caring as well as being competent and knowledgeable.
