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.

What an amazing, kind, smart doc!
Didn't think it possible to find someone I trusted as much, after Dr. Jessen retired last year, but: Love (love, love) our new primary, Kathleen McDonough. We don't normally require a lot of interaction, per se, but we have an upcoming trip to Asia for three weeks. Considering she's new to me (and hasn't even met my husband yet for an annual) she's been SUPER responsive about vaccinations and traveling abroad--many e-mails across many days, to both of us! She's gone over-and-above what I'd expect, given that we're so new. Shout out, in case any local peeps in the system can get her. What a very kind, smart, down-to-earth, seriously dedicated person. (I think I may get her flowers or something! Geesh.)

Dr. Kathleen McDonough has been my PCP for more years than I can remember. Awesome, patient, and very compassionate, listens intently to your problems, explains everything to you in terms you can understand, makes you feel very comfortable, takes as much time as needed with you during your appointment...never rushing. On a scale of 1-10, I would definitely give her a 10. Additionally, she is also the physician for a couple of my granddaughters. I would recommend her to anyone in need of a great doctor.
