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.

Dr. Susie is THE BEST. The only one I trust and one that my kids love going to see. Patient, fun, personable. 100/10.

She's lovely. She fascinates little kids when she interacts with them, and once they get older, she bonds with them as two "cool kids." Nothing's embarrassing and she communicates that for my adolescent. Among the best. If only she weren't so far out- but we understand she has a life too.
