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.

The Dr. Was excellent with professionalism explained exactly what would be done, and what to expect afterwards. Pretty thorough with everything, polite, showed concern overall. I appreciate her a lot. From a scale 1 to 10 Dr. Dessureault deserves an 11

Dr.Dess removed a tumor from my large intestine in December of 2018. She successfully removed a large tumor and suspect surrounding tissues. I have not had to undergo Chemo or radiation therapy and have been Cancer free for two years. Thank you Dr Dess for saving my life.

My first contact with Dr. Dessureault was very informative and straightforward. My gastroenterologist suspected a malignant growth during a routine colonoscopy. This came as a shock as I just got through treatment for ovarian cancer with a different team. So, I went through two abdominal surgeries, chemo and radiation. Dr. Dessureault was always available to me and successfully removed the cancer. She is knowledgeable, kind, trustworthy and caring. I highly recommend her if you need surgery.

She is very human and close to patients. She is highly talented and very knowledgeable. She definitely stands out among the crowd of surgeons. She scrutinizes tests results and her diagnosis is sharp and accurate. She has the ability to think out of the box for desperate cases. She is not afraid of challenging surgery, at all. So, if you are looking for an excellent surgeon, she is definitely one of a kind.
