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.

Absolutely love my doctor!!! I cannot believe my good fortune. I recommend Dr. Djernes to anyone looking for a doctor that cares, shows concern, makes you feel like you matter, and does an incredible job at determining the cause of issues and getting the right tests run if she doesn't know right off the bat. And the office staff? Just as wonderful! Hardly a wait time and everyone is just so welcoming and pleasant.

I've been seeing her about 4 months and I have absolutely loved her from the first meeting. There can sometimes be a wait, but it's because she spends lots of time with each patient.

Dr. Djernes has been a tremendous benefit in helping me make significant improvements to my health since I started seeing her 2 months ago. She has always been thorough and keen to listen to me about how I feel. I appreciate how she takes the time to explain her diagnoses and the background behind them.

Although Dr. Djernes was very sweet, during my brief visit she constantly glanced at the clock. This was very distracting as I tried to described my symptoms. Then, when I returned for the sole purpose of going over test results Dr. Djernes glibly announced that she couldn't find them and dismissed me. I later found out that they had been sent days prior.
