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.

Beware of this doctor
Went to Er in Leesburg. Dr. Gironda was more than rude, had zero compassion, no ability to listen or communicate! Don't expect to get any help or accurate diagnosis!

Quick and painless
My husband severely broke finger during our vacation. He was in pain and it was ruining our vacation. He saw Dr. Gironda, who was thorough and provided education with a smile. She reset his finger, which relieved his pain, allowing us to continue with our vacation. Fast and courteous… thank you so much!

Worst experience ever
Didn’t listen, made threats and accusations. I have never in my life been treated by any medical “professional” in my life. Go to anyone else. You got one star because I couldn’t give zero.

Dr Gironda, is a slick doctor with a vicious mouth! I went to the ER with my primary doctors instructions for one thing as Gironda called my doctor and myself IDOITS, and said lymes diease didn’t exist and if it did there would be no flair ups. She threw me on the Covid unit. 5 days there! After 3 Covid test neg. I walked out, finally took my 1st shower at home and the health Dept called me yesterday and said you have a high level of Lyme in your system therefore you have lymes diease when do you think this happen? 1985 folks! Diagnosis late 1990s . She wouldnt listen! We were idiots! Now I have been exposed to Covid thanks to this doctor and have to quarantine at home for 14 days! Also, none of the tests were completed that my doctor sent me there for. I’m still as sick as the day my doctor sent me to Advent Health in Ocala Fl . She has NO COMPASSION OR EMPATHY! Cold like a snake! Run people!
