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.

I have been seeing Dr. Smith for 9+ years, she came highly recommended by a close friend of mine. She helped me transition through menopause after an unexpected hysterectomy at 49. Because of her passion for giving our bodies the support they need to age well and healthy I can say I'm very thankful for her expertise. She goes way beyond being an MD...she knows from her research women can maintain and even improve their health by choosing a healthy lifestyle. Achieving that healthy lifestyle doesn't come without commitment and I appreciate that each year Dr. Smith tests and adjusts, then prepares my individual plan. I can call with questions if I'm having a problem and she is prompt with a follow up to resolve my issue. Adjusting my activity level, what I eat and drink and expose myself to physically and mentally all play a part in my health and Dr. Smith keeps me accountable and on track! The benefit I receive is commensurate with my willingness and effort.

×Post a ResponseAre you Dr. Smith?
I spent $3,500.00 out of pocket in doctor's fees, lab costs, prescriptions and recommended supplements (most insurance does not cover her services). I followed all of her recommendations to the letter and had absolutely no change in my medical issues related to being post menopausal. She put me on a highly restrictive, difficult and expensive diet for a 90 day trial period and then never followed up to see how I was doing (it is now 7 months later). The only communication I have received is a letter informing me that my one year check up is now due and that the fee is another $500. I absolutely do NOT recommend her services.
