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.

Un knowledgeable doctor
So the reason I saw this doctor was to get a referral to the physical therapy clinic at Mayo. First off she saw that I was rhythmically dosing cream hormones and she told me that she didn’t agree with that way of using hormones. She then asked me sarcastically if I was a doctor. She knew I wasn’t. Also when she found out I had a vaginal rejuvenation procedure done she was horrified. She said lasers will cause scarring. It’s been a couple years since and I’m doing great and it’s improved things. She seemed so behind the times when it comes to womens health issues. I wouldn’t go back to this doctor again. I also wouldn’t recommend her either.

Very professional but relaxed appointment! She sat in the chair like she was having coffee with you, looking relaxed and it felt more like a conversation with a friend than an appointment with a doctor. She was very thorough, explaining things in terms you could relate to. I wish all doctors could be like her!

I saw this doctor over a year ago but have been too ill to bother reviewing. Honestly, I was referred there by my nephrologist due to health issues. What I got, was a 30 minute lecture about why women need to have sex with their men. I was not there for anything sexual. At all. Offered hormones but no hormone testing first. Since then I have been diagnosed and hormones were a huge issue. Of course you have to test to find out though. I do not recommend this doctor.
