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.

Never felt so dismissed by a provider
After explaining my problem he dismissed my concerns saying that I just needed to give things time to regulate. Did no exam, no testing, barely looked at my face, and seemed completely uninterested in any of the tracking data I had available to explain further the issue I was having. Spent maybe 10 minutes total in the room with me and while he wasn’t hostile, he was unfriendly and uncaring. Offered no solutions or suggestions. Maybe he was having an off day, but I have never seen a provider so dismissive of concerns. For reference, I’m an RN and have been in multiple appointments with patients to advocate for them as well as speaking to doctors regularly regarding things. The office staff was great, however.

Dr Gildersleeve is a perfect listener and came up with a great recommendation for my situation. He’s professional and has a lovely “Bedside” manner. His office staff are poised, friendly, efficient and make you feel welcome and important. It was an excellent experience. I just moved to the area and finding Dr Gildersleeve was a breath of fresh air.
