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.

Had a severe infection and was misdiagnosed. My nurse insisted it was poison ivy and even noted I had said I had been exposed in my clinical notes, although I never said so. My concerns about having a severe weeping infection were mansplained away. I was told to come back if it ‘got worse’. When my condition did get worse (thanks to the steroids they prescribed) I was unable to use telemedicine (at south location) bc I was on a trip out of state, but they said my provider would call me back about antibiotics. No call. I drove 6 hours to return for care. At 630 they refused to see me, bc they were closing soon (1.5 hrs) and the line was too long. I explained the entire situation and pleaded to be helped, just to receive antibiotics as I had asked for on my first visit. Was given an attitude and told they ‘couldn’t help with an infection anyways, I needed to got to the Er for that’ Go somewhere else for care and competence, you will NOT find it here.
