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. Williams is a kind, caring, knowledgeable physician. I have referred many of my personal friends and family to her because I know they will be taken care of.

Williams diagnosed me with Parkinson's Disease 5 years ago, and treated me for it for over three years. She overmedicated, and attributed everything wrong to Parkinson's. She prescribed medication use incorrectly. I lived with this for three and a half years until another doctor read the reports she had ordered, and saw what she should have seen - I had a minor stroke. Right now, my heart goes out to B. Williams. Williams shouldn't be allowed to practice medicine. She has already gotten a bad reputation in the medical community. I am so crippled because of, shuffle more than walk, fall down. Originally referred to her because handwriting getting bad....

Terrible. After 8 months she missed cancer. It is now terminal. She told me I had nothing life threatening and she refused to look in a different direction when asked. Even late when MRI’s showed tumors.

Dr. Williams is insensitive and trivializes memory impairment. She talks insulting and unprofessionally about Alzheimer's Disease. When she thinks my partner is crazy, as she calls it, she gets loud and it is uncomfortable.I wanted to talk about a further evaluation of my partners illness and she ignores me. She express feelings of inferiority in a male field but we know lady doctors are JUST AS GOOD-and she can be better.

Dr. William is very caring and responsive, which makes her lovely to work with. In addition, her education, experience and credentials are very impressive. It is obvious that she is passionate bout her work. We feel very fortunate that she has cared for our daughter while we have been living in California, and we will sincerely miss her when we move to Texas.
