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.

A wonderful Dr
Dr. McGowan was my children's pediatrician up until 3 years ago. My children are now adults in the late 20s and 30s. I am so very happy & pleased that she is my grandson pedtrician. I couldn't ask for a more caring pediatrician that will give your child the attention and precise treatment for any illness. She is more than a Dr. She is a friend to your child.

Dr. Heather has been the pediatrician of both my children for the past 20 years. She is caring and thorough with every examination and takes the time to connect and answer all questions. she speaks to the patients and establishes a trusting relationship. I trust her judgement and abilities. she makes appropriate referrals and is always responsive to calls. Never a problem scheduling appointments, staff is friendly, waiting room child friendly. wait time can be lengthy sometimes but worth it.

Dr. McGowan is the absolute best pediatrician. I'm now about to turn 21 and I've been seeing Dr. McGowan since I was 7. She not only has treated my physical ailments, she is a constant support and never hesitates to be there for me with the right words. Dr. McGowan is smart as a whip, but has a heart of gold- I couldn't have asked for a better pediatrician.
