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.

After waiting almost 8 months and making over 3 dozen calls after a referral to a different group, we requested a new referral to a different doctor. Within a few weeks, we had an appointment with Dr Tammy Jones with bloodwork and scans done. We were impressed with her friendliness, competence, and efficiency. The long delay in finding a doctor was extremely frustrating but maybe was a good thing, because I think we ended up in the right place with the right doctor!

To hear the words, "You have invasive ductal carcinoma." is nothing less than terrifying. To hear the words Dr. Young offered me, "I will do everything within my power, using the most current evidence based care available, to treat your cancer." was comforting, reassuring and brought the hope and courage I needed to battle my cancer. If you are struggling with cancer and want exceptional care, with an immense understanding and knowledge of the most current treatments, I recommend Dr. Young.

Dr. Young is a very competent and compassionate physician. I have been a patient since early 2009 and she has always taken the time to answer all of my questions and help with matters that are related to cancer. The staff is also caring and friendly and frankly, I could not ask for a better situation. I would highly recommend Dr. Young.
