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.

Evaluation of Dr. Joelle Simpson's Patient Interac
In our interactions with a healthcare provider, Dr. Simpson's bedside manner has consistently fallen short of the empathetic and patient-centered approach expected in medical settings. She exhibits a demeanor that can be best described as brusque and unaccommodating, significantly detracting from the quality of patient care. Her communication style lacks the warmth, patience, and attentiveness crucial to fostering a reassuring and healing environment for patients.Her interactions are often marked by haste and indifference, leaving little room for patients to express their concerns fully or feel genuinely heard. This undermines patient confidence and impacts the overall effectiveness of care. Joelle's apparent disregard for the softer yet vital aspects of patient care, such as empathy, understanding, and emotional support, is a significant concern that needs to be addressed to improve patient experiences and outcomes.
