Your trust is our top concern.

We strive to keep the reviews trustworthy, honest & fair.

We monitor all reviews to ensure they comply with our guidelines and don’t include personal information, profanity, libel, defamation, harassment, obscenity or fraud.

All reviews are confirmed and audited before publication, and community members have the ability to flag inappropriate content for further review by our team.

Doctors can not pay for good reviews, nor can they pay to have negative reviews removed.

Any reviews that are deemed fraudulent or violate our guidelines will be removed immediately.

Reply
She is the worst doctor I have ever seen. I wish I never had received any care from her. She wrote terribly personal notes in the electronic record and it’s permanently there for any other doctor to view. Talk about a breach of privacy and disregard for patient welfare.
