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.

Have seen "Mike" Coulson for 20 years at SVMC, through the transition to PAMF and now Sutter Health. I generally don't need to see anyone else for routine medical needs. He is friendly, easy going, very knowledgeable, and actually listens and cares. Any time I have to decide on a new insurance plan, having Mike "in network" is the deciding factor. His assistant/nurse "April" operates the same way, a real 5 star team.

My family has seen Dr. Coulson for years. I find him easy to talk to - he listens and responds to concerns, is empathetic and friendly. He seems balanced about recommending testing and treatment, vs allaying concerns that I may have that don't require either. I/we have been happy with Dr. Coulson as our doctor, as well as the clinic overall.
