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.

As a mother of 4, this is the worst doctor I’ve ever encountered

Dr. Dierks is absolutely amazing. She takes the time to listen to you and we have never felt like she was rushing to judgement on anything. She definitely seems like she cares about her patients and we try and not see anyone else there (though the others we have seen have all been great, too)! She is often booked up but we make sure we book far enough in advance and the kids love coming to see her! Best switch of practices that we have ever done!
