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.

I saw Mary DuQuette for an evaluation of my back issues, but she instead kept trying to sell me a hip replacement. I asked her how that would help with my cracked vertebrae and compressed disc, and she was genuinely surprised that I had these issues. She asked me to point out on the x-ray, where these issues existed. I tried, but the only x-ray she had was of my hip. She never noticed it wasn't a back. Neither did she order a back x-ray to see what was needing attention. Her parting words to me were, 'You are not emotionally ready. When you are in enough pain, you'll be back.' There's not enough pain in the world to bring me back to this woman. I found myself a competent practitioner outside of Sharp Rees-Stealy.

Disrespectful and Rude Doctor
Let me start by saying, Rude, Disrespectful and not honest. Doesn’t hear what you’re saying because she speaks over you in a load voice. I felt rushed on top of her being 52 minutes late she tells me she doesn’t have time to do my full evaluation. We pay a lot of money for our insurance to be treated this way. She clearly was not honest with what she wrote on my health report. I tried giving her a complement after she skulled me but that didn’t help. I can go on and on but this is my honest opinion. I always want to give people the benefit of the doubt because I know that I’ve been giving one too. My appointment was 4/12/23
