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.

Sends to a specialist for nonsensical issues
When she went part-time the service started going down. It was extremely hard to see her as my doctor instead of one of her assistants. I started noticing for near anything I brought up she told me I had to see a specialist, urgent care or the ER. She sent me to urgent care for a regular cyst under my arm. Then she sent me to an ENT because I had a larger tonsils which I've had all my life but I asked about them so she sent me. Then I was diagnosed by nurse practitioners with high blood pressure and she put me on a medicine for it. A few days after I started taking this medicine I started having a fast heartbeat and what felt like my heart skipping a beat. I called a few times about the issues I was having with the new medicine but instead of accepting that the medicine may not be for me she wanted to put me on a heart monitor. When I questioned it and the medicine again I was told by the nurse via phone that I needed the ER. That was the last time I saw this doctor. Rediculous.

My daughter has been seen by dr chitwood for years. When it comes to the well far of a patient dr chitwood is the worst ever. When asked to speak to dr chitwood about my daughters care, I was advised that dr chitwood doesn't have time to speak to me during clinic hours. She could not call after hours because dr chitwood has a busy life dealing with her 6 children. Dr chitwood is willing to put my daughters well being in danger. We will never return or recommend dr chitwood
