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.

I have been a patient of Dr. West for several years. I was referred to her by my GP due to a rare autoimmune disease. I have been in remission since shortly after my first visit with her. She is very knowledgeable, patient and kind. I was terrified when I saw her for the first time but she took her time, explaining what was happening to my body and why and explained what her plan was to fix it which she has done. I would highly recommend her to anyone without reservation!

Botched up surgery and not very nice nor was the office staff. I did not go but once a year so when I had the botched up surgery they made me feel I was a chronic complainer. Nicked a blood vessel and did not tell me until I had clot and then removed the clot and cut a whole in my bladder. Three months of pure misery. I changed gynecologist. She did not even complete then planned procedure. Never have been in so much pain after the bladder injury. Staff was rude, HIPPA laws not followed.

Dr. West has been my gynecologist for over 10 years. She is kind, professional and extremely knowledgeable. She has walked with me through regular office visits, a breast cancer scare, and performed surgery (a hysterectomy). I have great trust in her and could not be more pleased with the care she has given me.
