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.

Run Away!!!! She began her career as a hospitalist, and no idea why or how she became a pediatrician! I seriously think she has mental issues, her lack of decency and respect for her patients was clear in our first visit! She tried telling us the way things were going to go regarding vaccinations and antibiotics, and it was her way or the highway. She lacks compassion, empathy, professionalism, and basic human decency. I would let her take care of a goldfish, let alone my baby. Horrible!

The sheer lack of knowledge regarding vaccination, including their ingredients and their impact on the immune system, is extremely unsettling. She and her tiny patients would dramatically benefit from further, unbiased education. Find a knowledgeable doctor instead.

1 star because I’m leaving zero stars isn’t an option. This physician is a fear mongering women on a power trip. She does not respect her patients or their wishes on how to treat their children.
