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.

Finally, at age 60+ , I've found a Doctor who gives excellent care. She's attentive to my needs and listens to my concerns, She involves ME in maintaining my health related issues. She is everything I've searched so long for in the health care field.

She was easy to talk to and understanding of my issues. I didn't feel like she spoke another language when Dr. Bolden spoke to me and I really appreciate that.

I relocated to SC after years of living outside the state and as always, finding a new primary care doctor is a fraught experience. That said, I couldn't have found a more thorough and kind physician than Dr. Bolden. Having learned that women doctors are more attentive and pro-active, I experienced Dr. Bolden as precisely that. She doesn't convey a sense of hurry or stress for which I marvel and am grateful.

She is very nice and responsive through the portal. However, she doesn't do the basic blood work that she says she will do and relies heavily on previous medical errors. She was very agreeable with helping for what I needed but failed to respond when it was time.

Very thorough physician and very practical. Dr. Bolden always has the time to answer my questions and does so in a manner that is easy to understand. She encourages questions because she wants the me to understand her diagnosis and treatment. I highly recommend her.

Dr. Bolden is a friendly physician, however, she seems to be able to tackle only one thing at a time. I always leave feeling like I didn't get what I came in for. Although she do address the 'main' reason for your visit, if you come in with several issues you want addressed, she will deal with what she consider to be the most important issue first, and then set up follow up appointments to deal with the other issues. This is most frustrating being her patient.
