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.

Dr Walsh is always attentive and helpful

Dr. Walsh, has been an amazing provider since I've met her. She takes her time and listens to my concerns and respects my decisions in my healthcare. Although I work for OSF now, I still choose my care team at Mercy, and Dr.Walsh is one of the reasons why.

My son caught the roto virus when I called to confirm the results her nurse said he didn't have it. I called the hospital & asked how that would be possible and they said he indeed had it. My newborn threw up every time he ate, but she said I was exaggerating and that all babies spit up. He was 50% on scale when born and dropped below 3%. I finally went to a Pediatrician who diagnosed him with reflux and prescribed him meds. He slowly but surely started gaining weight.
