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.

Good riddance. A real woke group of doctors.
Dr was not interactive. She was very opinionated.

Dr Boinest is always well prepared before in person and/or virtual visits. She is thoughtful about my concerns and will discuss options. She does not leave a call or meeting without ensuring I have a)understood my options and b) I don't have additional concerns/questions.
