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.

Dr Penrose is extremely understanding caring and very kind. She is very patient, will answer all your questions, takes her time to explain things you don't understand. Dr Penrose is a life saver! She's my doctor and my surgeon. I was so scared to have my hysterectomy done, I was so scared of pain due to my lifetime struggle with my health problems and painful surgeries. But Dr Penrose is the bestest of the best! There was no pain after my surgery. No problems whatsoever. It was a miracle. Dr Penrose removed my affected organs and problems and basically got rid off my pain and misery I'd been dealing with for 40 years!!! I'm very grateful and fortunate for everything Dr Penrose has done for my health and I recommend her to everyone who is dealing with pain and problems and needs a very kind gentle and understanding doctor!

Did not timely provide me with my lab results. It was only at my next office visit (several months after the lab) when they realized they never called me and never prescribed me the medication. Nurse staff was very rude and was on the phone when she brought me into the exam room. Dr. Penrose was good at explaining main diagnosis but then I never saw her since...

Explained things well, had 2 procedures and the last one I was crying and I was told by this doctor to stop crying because the procedure was done. Definitely uncalled for considering the procedure was very painful and her reaction was uncalled for. Had to switch doctors after coming to terms that not every doctor talks down to their patients like she did.
