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.

Pretentious
This doctor told me eating dog food was safer than regulated cannabis products by the state of MN. Im not even sure what that is supposed to mean coming from a medical proffessional but i defs didnt walk away feeling any smarter.

I had an awful experience with her. She did not listen to me as I was telling her about my condition. Instead she was too busy reading my reports which should have been done beforehand. Her account of my complaint and history was terribly wrong... which makes no sense considering every doctor seen prior to her had a consistent history of my symptoms. She never looked at me but kept eyes on her computer the entire time. She focused on an unrelated health condition that happened over 16 years ago.

The most bigoted and biased doctor I have ever encountered. Made incorrect assumptions about me & my health without asking further questions or probing deeper. She’s definitely not up to Mayo Clinic standards. Her twitter posts show she is very opinionated, ultra-conservative, heavily involved with supporting Republican Party candidates, anti-gay marriage, anti-legalized medical marijuana, etc. If you want a doctor who is non-judgmental, find someone else.

I'm actually pretty confused by the bad reviews she received. I thought she was great. She spent more than an hour with me the first time I saw her, and while she did not diagnose my medical conditions, she sent me to very knowledgeable doctors in their respected fields who were able to both diagnose and treat it. Before I saw her 2 years ago, I thought I would be dead or on disability within 5 years. Now I'm recovering. Just being listened to instead of blown off repeatedly was amazing.
