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.

Before I comment on Dr. WRIGHT, I wish to comment on the previous critic of Dr. Wright, who labels herself "Helen". It appears you are very caught up in your own IMPORTANCE,!! and your own accompishments!! and the need to broadcast them. Your reference to your aunt is as if it is an afterthought. My experience with Dr. Wright gives her the highest of recommendations. She Is exactly what an aging person needs. She provides excellent care and understands the patient's psychological needs

Dr. Wright is far from at the top of her game as a physician. She knows little about geriatric medicine in contemporary world. She is not up to speed. I have a PhD from Harvard in biochemistry, honorary doctorate from MIT and am a Lasker award winner. She took terrible care of my aunt for the time she was a patient. Don't use her if you want the best. She is the worst.

Caring and concerned. Good follow-up. Appreciate the time she's willing to spend explaining and questioning -- more doctors need to be this way.

Lazy. Does not know current practice in geriatrics and unwilling to learn. Poor communicator especially with family. Lousy doctor.
