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.

Having had a minor heart attack, which my current cardiologist calls about a 1 - 1.5 on a scale of 10, I unfortunately ended up at Valley Medical in Renton. Dr. Chen came in the room and introduced herself with her first question to me being "Do you have a will?" She followed that up with "Have you heard of triple by-pass surgery?" Evidently she was try to finish what my heart couldn't quite do! This was way out of line given my case and very unprofessional. Stay away.
