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. Polverini examined me thoroughly. She was very comforting and addressing my concerns thoroughly. I left the office with a good feeling rather than being anxious that something might be overlooked.

It didn't feel like they were rushing to leave which it often feels like with other providers. They took the time to clearly explain everything to me and answer all my questions. They were clear on their recommendation but also wasn't pressuring me into one decision or another.

Dr. Polverini is the quintessential doctor for women/men navigating oncological issues. She is a professional and astute doctor, but she is also empathetic and compassionate. She is exactly what a patient needs while reconciling with diagnosis, treatment plans and beyond. I absolutely adore Dr. Polverini!
