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 Tanimoto was super nice and friendly to me. She listened to all my concerns and answered all my questions. Never felt rushed at all, she took her time to explain everything to me about my issues and what she recommends. I came in to see her for a ingrown toenail removal a previous docotor did and was not done correctly. She looked at it and right away knew what needed to be done and she removed my ingrown toenail, it was fast and painless. I would highly recommend Dr Tanimoto to anyone looking for a doctor who cares about their pateints.
