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.

Do not trust her
Two appointments with her - at the first, she didn't believe me when I told her that I'd recently gotten a pap smear, and apparently decided to give me another one without my consent. I only realized days later when they sent me the results. Second appointment, she came in with zero prep (had no idea what the appointment was for, hadn't looked at the test that was the reason I was there) and a dismissive manner, and I left with no answers. Will not be returning to her.

Horrible
She rushed through my appointment and was rude. Left the room to go to another room then returned. She did not explain the procedure or my condition. Then proceeded to perform the procedure with NO local anesthetic. Extreme discomfort. I was then discharged. The treatment was very barbaric. Buyer BEWARE.

She basically insinuated I lied about what the ER told me, she didn't listen to me, and she repeatedly told me I wasn't feeling what I was feeling. Very frustrating. Would never go back.
