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.

So grateful & she eased my fears
I'm having surgery next week, I moved here knowing I would need surgery. Dr. Hardesty was just a PERFECT balance for me; eased my mind, let me feel comfortable talking about everything, did her own tests, and determined her own treatment plan.... I like to understand things and asked lots of questions; she knows how to communicate with real people! I have had some past medical trauma and she made me feel so confident. I actually cried a bit once I was in the parking garage and thanked God for giving me a Doctor who is so very knowledgeable and someone I can both communicate with and trust.

×Post a ResponseAre you Dr. Hardesty?
She’s been very nice to me. She was very easy going/gentle with me when I was scared. I have social anxiety & I’m very scared of doctors/getting check ups/surgery/etc. but she’s made all my experiences/appointments with her not as scary. I trust her as my doctor.
