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.

Great in every way
Dr. Edwards performed a total thyroidectomy on me. Everything went perfectly, the surgery was successful, and the recovery was quick. All thanks to Dr. Edwards and her team.She was also great in the pre-surgery office visit -- gave me all the relevant, needed information and answered my questions without rushing. She is pleasant and easy to talk to.I can't thank Dr. Edwards enough for the extraordinary good work she did for me.

Dr Edwards is professional experienced
Dr Edwards is professional. She took time to answer my many questions and explained in terms that were understandable. She explained in detail the procedure I would have and what the expected results would be as she performed the surgery. Her mild manner and confidence settled my fears. She is a great doctor and wonderful person.

An absolutely wonderful doctor. You could not possibly find a better surgeon. Kind, friendly, professional, compassionate. Within 5 minutes of meeting her I knew she was the surgeon I needed for my health problem. She explained everything about the surgery in great detail and took the time to answer all my questions and I had a lot of questions. Dr Edwards is a genuinely compassionate person who just happens to be a fantastic doctor. I can't thank her enough for taking such good care of me. Her staff was also top notch. The best!!

Dr. Courtney was an amazing surgeon, confirming I had thyroid cancer I had surgery to remove my thyroid. She explained everything really well and I felt very comfortable and reassured with the entire process. On the day of surgery she kept my family informed and provided comfort and support the entire time. I can definitely recommend her. Great follow up care.

She paralyzed my right vocal cord during a routine Parathyroid surgery to remove a small nodule. She had reassured me that my voice would be fine. Didn't turn out that way. She then pushed me off on another throat doctor who pushed me off to another doctor. He did 5 shots in my throat ( while I was awake) to try and restore my voice. It didn't work. Next step is surgery to implant a device so I can speak normally. Horrible experience that has and will continue to cause me severe emotional and physical pain. She's terrible. I do not recommend her

Dr. Courtney Edwards is an amazing doctor & person. I confirmed with her I had Thyroid Cancer; in July 2018 had surgery to remove entire Thyroid. She was very "hands on", provided the utmost care & concern for how I felt & what I needed to know. She made me feel extremely comfortable about the procedure, what to expect before, during & after since I was a nervous wreck. Everyone needs to be aware of their Thyroid! Request scans! If I didn't?? Would never know, til it was a way worse situation.

Dr. Edwards was wonderful. She answered all of my pre- and post-surgery questions. She provided me with her cell phone number and responded immediately to all texts regarding my surgery. All of the staff at the office were friendly and extremely kind. My scar is tiny and should not be visible once fully healed. I would highly recommend Dr. Edwards to anyone looking for an endocrine surgeon.

Have been to a few Doctors over the last several years and I must say that Dr. Edwards is a "one of a kind" with great bed side manners. Did not realize that Doctors like her still existed. She took as much time as I needed without rushing, explaining my condition (in detail), how she goes about her surgery, etc. I am extremely picky and she passed all of my tests.
