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.

Very nice and listen to everything I had to say about my child and took what I told him into consideration when taking her healthcare into fact.

The entire team at IFP is amazing. I can not put into words how amazing this team is and the work they do. We feel like an integrated part of a family who loves and supports us and our son as much as our actual family does. They are amazing. This program is amazing. They all deserves a raise (kidding....but not really).
