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.

Best. Surgeon. Ever.
Best surgeon EVER and overall phenomenal human. I knew immediately Dr. Driessen would be my surgeon- her bedside manor is unlike anyone else, her work is truly INSANE, and her pre and post op care was thorough (she met with me for two hours pre-op and answered my giant list of questions with kindness and patience). I had a flawless surgery and recovery and I’d never go to anyone else. Do yourself a huge favor and go to Dr. Driessen. She is a perfectionist who will also be honest with you about your hopes and expectations. She changed my life forever and I am so grateful for her and her phenomenal team.

Dr. Natalie Driessen is the most selfless person I have ever met, I met Dr. Natalie Driessen when diagnosed with my second bout of Breast Cancer; without her I might not be alive today, Dr. Natalie Driessen completed my 2nd Reconstruction; came to hospital to complete a follow up and regulate my medication; called me personally to follow up while she was out of town. My 2nd reconstruction (left side) looks amazing; The work on my body is a masterpiece-Thank you. Dr. Driessen completed repairs to my 1st reconstruction - done by another doctor) I can now look in the mirror at myself again. Feel like a woman again. Dr. Natalie Driessen has a heart of gold; cares about her patients; not just by saying she cares; but in every action she takes. Dr. Natalie is my “Guardian Angel”; she puts her whole heart into what she does and for those she cares for. Yes -I recommend Dr. Natalie Driessen to all. Dr. Natalie Driessen is a TRUE Health Care Hero. God Bless you for coming into my life.

Dr Driessen is the most caring physician I have ever met. I met her last summer on a problem I was having and she made a recommendation on a test I needed to see what the proper direction was to go. Turned out the insurance would not approve the test. She contined to help me to be sure I would get the best possible care. Dr Driessen directed me to a physician who she recommended in my insurance network. I recommend Dr Driessen to family and friends, she's an excellent physician.

×Post a ResponseAre you Dr. Driessen?
I was scheduled for an appointment a month in advance. I was called the week of my appointment and was told I had to reschedule due to a family commitment. I went to the rescheduled appointment where I received my treatment 2 weeks later. I a follow-up appointment to go back in 6 weeks and again was told I had to reschedule due to another family commitment. Getting me back in a week later was a huge inconvenience on may part just so I could accommodate her schedule.
