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.

I have a very unique and complicated conditions that many physicians have try to make simple yet did not help me with my head spinning and dizziness that I have experiences fir over 20 years. She is the first physician who took the time to give me a thorough cam and then order test to try and find an actual cause. The test were inconclusive which was disappointing. But at least she explored to make sure something was not being missed. I look forward to gaving a physician as thoughtful and curious as Fail Ishiyama to follow my condition in the coming years. I believe I am in intelligent and caring hands.

Dr. Gail Ishiyama is one of the best doctors I have ever had. She gives me a thorough exam, is meticulous in her data collection of my symptoms and problems and is willing to answer any questions I have. Yes, she can run late, but with me, it is always because she has discovered something that needs a bit more investigation. I know two things. I am getting excellent care and I trust her implicitly.

She doesn't leave patient until she has finished. She is thorough, totally interested in her patient and therefore occasionally late. We appreciated her deeply involved care.
