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.

To be fair, I waited until all of my children had already had separate appointments with Paulson before I gave my input. This prescriber was ill-prepared during the sick visits for all of my children. If you're looking to schedule/pay for a sick visit for a pediatrician to do NOTHING to help your child's ailments or address parental concerns, then she just may be the person you're looking for. It's no wonder she always has immediate availability when I call to schedule an appointment...I'm guessing that many parents try to avoid scheduling Dr. Paulson. Or, maybe she'd do more to help my children if I had a West Chase zip code. In any event, for those of you looking for medicine to manage your children's ailments, scheduling Dr. Paulson would not be in your best interest.

I feel she needs a few refresher courses in medicine. Offers horrible explanations as to what is going on with your child. Horrible bedside manner and does not communicate very well at all.

Dr. Paulson always has great recommendations for my son. She's very approachable and kind. She takes her time at our appointments to answer all my questions and never rushes us to move on to the next patient. My son loves her. I'm so thankful that a friend recommended me to her after I was unhappy with our other pediatrician. I highly recommend her! My son is now 5 and has gone to her since he was about 6 months old.

Horrible bedside manner, she should not be treating kids. Came in for a sick visit and she didn't even check the ears or mouth. Sat back in a chair and said she doesn't know what's wrong then got up and walked out. So brash and awful! See any doctor there except her. Would rather go to urgent care and pay extra than see her again. Saw a different doctor a couple of weeks later and found out what had been bothering my child thanks to a thorough exam.
