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.

I saw Dr. Boos for a primary care intake a few months ago. I didn’t get a great vibe from her - she seemed knowledgeable but didn’t seem to care about me as a whole person. It was the end of the day so I thought that may have impacted her bedside manner. Recently, I requested a refill of my birth control medication that was prescribed by my previous PCP. After 2 days and no response, I sent a MyChart message and I got a response saying Dr. Boos said I would need to see a gynecologist for this prescription. As a former primary care doctor myself, I was shocked by this response. Prescribing birth control is a basic component of women’s health that every PCP I’ve ever had and known as a colleague has done without question. Needless to say I will be finding a new doctor.

Dr. Boos has been my physician for over 20 years. She is very knowledgeable,thorough, compassionate and trustworthy. Her bedside manner is excellent and the only downside to being a great doctor is that her schedule tends to be very full. However, I absolutely recommend her.

Dr Boos has always been there for me. I started seeing her when she was at the Hoag Family Center on Baker and Fairview In Costa Mesa a long time ago and I followed her wherever she moved to in the area. We have a very good patient/doctor relationship, she cares about my health. She is up to snuff on our communications. I have recommended her to all my family members and they are all happy with her.

Dr. Boos is a great listener and explains things clearly. Comment on office- they really need to allow scheduling of wellness exams (physicals) 1 year out vs the 6 mo. limit they currently have. My cynical view is that this is a cost saving measure because of forgetful people like me.
