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.

The Best!
Dr. McGuinn is extremely knowledgeable and up-to-date on all aspects of her practice. She is always able to communicate conditions and variables in a way that 'regular' people can understand, and she speaks to kids in a way that they understand and relate as well. A rare and much appreciated gift. She is compassionate and kind, and her team and staff are just as lovely. She truly cares, and it shows, every visit. We are so grateful for her and could not recommend her and her team enough!

The most knowledgeable, thorough & caring doctor
Dr McGuinn is our son’s hematologist for the last 12 years. She is knowledgeable, up to date, highly responsive, compassionate, and down-to-earth. She promptly responda to calls or emails after hours whenever we have emergencies. My whole family absolutely loves her. We feel lucky to have her!

Amazing doctor
Dr. McGuinn is genuine, thoughtful, and extremely knowledgeable. From the way she talked about the kids she’s treating, you could tell that she’s really passionate about helping kids and their families navigating through a rare blood disorder. She didn’t rush the conversation at all and answered every question we had. We are really grateful that we found her.

Knowledgeable, helpful and kid friendly
Dr. McGuinn saw my two daughters and took her time to explain everything to all of us. She used kid friendly language, charts and pictures, when describing often complicated blood disorder terminology. I feel confident with the care she provides and would highly recommend her.
