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 Knudsen literally saved my life! I came in with several issues & she helped me through them all! I'm no longer in pain & my PMDD symptoms are gone! She is a very compassionate & kindhearted person & a brilliant Doctor!

Dr. Knudsen has been my OB doctor for many years. She is smart, compassionate and easy to talk to. I must say, I wish all providers were as kind and competent as Val.

This doctor performed the wrong surgery on me. Bedside manor is extremely poor. She is mean in demeanor. I wish i had taken the time to get a second opinion. I do NOT recommend her for any medical advice or services.

Dr. Knudsen is amazing! I came in extremely frustrated by a previous experience with another OB-GYN and Dr. Knudsen listened to my concerns and helped me figure out an alternative health plan that fit my lifestyle and needs.
