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.

Rapid Sequence Induction via SRNA CAA
Dr. West was thoroughly informative prior to my procedure, but did not disclose that she was not personally performing the induction and that a student would. The SRNA, CAA or Anesthesiology Resident administered the propofol POORLY...Rapid Sequence Induction RSI...I was not in an ER situation...Apparently the student was running late for the procedure and performed a rapid induction of the propofol (rushing the anethesia into my system) wherein I felt like I was dying...Horrible experience.

Seemed very bored when speaking to my husband and I prior to a procedure and made a ridiculous comment about not being seen by the PCP prior to procedure. Had to explain husband was seen often by transplant doc then she copped an attitude because it was apparent we weren't stupid.
