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.

My first visit with the Dr Sandra Alexander
The annual medical checkup with Dr Alexander was a total waste of my time. She didn’t listen. I sent her an email regarding the very bad side effects of the drugs she prescribed, but she never replied to it. Not professional. Fortunately I have now found a more competent physician.

California's gain is Foley, Alabama's loss. I was a patient of Dr. Alexander's, and she gave me and my family excellent care. She is missed.

Dr. Alexander's Reply –
I do not recognize this comment; not true
×Post a ResponseAre you Dr. Alexander?
Have been going here several years. Usually very short waiting time, staff, although busy, have always been efficient and friendly. Physician and NP are knowledgeable, and seem less rushed than other doctors I had seen in past, especially those who are employed by hospitals or corporations. Office visit times seem ample. One reviewer mentioned the paperwork, only a few pages and yes, they do have a missed appointment policy as all providers seem to now, including my dentist. Must be a reason.

Waste of time. Month to get appt. Staff nothing but trouble. Would not see me unless I agreed to pay 70-200.for missed appt. Dr. Refused to speak to me. This after I paid and filled out a book of paperwork. Hopefully money will be returned on my card.
