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.

Phenomenal Care
I have been under Dr. MacDonalds care not once but twice. Once for a stroke and once for after care of Brain Surgery. I can’t explain how grateful I was for the care,encouragement and precision I was given. Dr MacDonald was on hands and always made time to talk. Both facilities are/was blessed to have her on staff.

never look at my chart to see what had already been done and what I was on for meds. she tried to put me on med that would have had severe reactions with the meds. I was on already for health reasons. I Do not trust her.
