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 can even give her 1 star, she never listen to your concerns, never answer a messages try my chart, my son miss his treatment because she never reply back and send correct medicine.

I've been bringing my son to her for 18 years. I have no complaints. She has adjusted my boy's medications over the years, through growth problems and puberty, dealing with a complex syndrome. She is a very capable endocrinologist.

She is knowledgeable and has been more thorough than any other endocrinologist. She has terrible bed side manners though. She does not take the time to educate the parents nor does she partner up with them for the best care of the child. Every time we ask her a question she acts annoyed and gives very brief answers. She also seems to rush through the appointments and never takes the time to explain lab results.
