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 would give Dr. Bourque a million stars if I could! He is one of the most caring doctors I have ever met! He cares about the patient; everything about the patient. Dr. Bourque is kind. He is gentle and not rushed. He takes the time to explain everything he’s doing and explains test results. I can ask Dr. Bourque questions about any other health concerns and he takes the time to answer them.

Dr Bourque is so caring and the best doctor. He is professional and along with the examination explains what he is doing. He takes the time to talk to you and make you feel confident and so much better about your problem. He is concerned about how I feel and I left feeling relieved and not so much anxiety. He is a wonderful person and knowledgeable doctor. The best!

Dr Bourque is an extremely knowledgeable and caring physician. He takes time to know you as a patient asking not only about your health but your family and interests. While he is an OB/GYN he ensures you are keeping up on your general medical conditions.
