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.

Knowledgeable and caring. Great c-section
Dr. Carr is a great doctor who cared for me well through my pregnancy. She performed my c-section and my recovery was very easy. I barely have a scar. She is very knowledgeable about obstetrics and I always feel comfortable with her. I’ve had other procedures with her for gynecological visits and she is one of the best I’ve seen.

Unprofessional & Unsupportive of Women's Autonomy
I went in for a surgery consultation, but the visit was treated as a regular Ob-gyn appointment despite my prior consultation with my primary Ob-gyn. The doctor did not review my health history and declined to perform the surgery, citing my age (mid-thirties) as a reason. Instead, she recommended medication that I believe would have only delayed the necessary treatment. She also suggested a contraceptive option that another doctor had advised against due to my condition. Despite explaining my situation and my health history, she still refused the surgery and suggested I seek a second opinion. I left the office feeling distressed and had to find another practice for appropriate care. For those seeking control over their healthcare decisions, I recommend exploring other options.
