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.

Would not recommend
I would never recommend going to this dr. Worse dr I've ever had. She walked in on me naked while I was preparing for the surgery. Didn't knock didn't announce herself. And stood there so everyone in the hallway also seen me. Not informative at all. She called me for 5 minutes to tell me I'll need surgery and told me it was going to be 2 screws. Then billed over 350 for that 5 minute phone call. She did not inform me of the procedure and that they would be doing work on both sides of the leg. I woke up with 6 screws. She informed my boyfriend that it went well and i was waking up. 2 hours later, I actually woke up from the anesthesia screaming and crying in severe pain. They had to schedule my 2 week check up early because she's only in the office that is closer to me once a month. But the i never even seen her. The office was not concerned about my pain or range of motion. Sent me away with nothing told me to go get a boot. But the DME people couldn't even get one on me.
