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.

UNPROFESSIONAL
Talked down to me, had a terrible attitude, became combative, implied there was nothing wrong with me. Said the same thing last time at first visit, but this time implied that my main doctor who referred me back to her again was delusional. Had no issues taking another refral from him for me though. That is to collect another payment from my insurance of course. When I pointed this out she said 'well your not the one paying for it, are you?'. Ridiculously condescending. This experiance was unsettling and left me extremely disturbed at how quickly she implied it isn't my money she is taking. Guess in her eyes, my time is just as pointless to her as the pain I'm in daily...that is as long as there's an insurance company flipping the bill. I wouldn't trust this Doctor to diagnos an ingrown toe nail.

Drs like her, give other Drs the bad reputation!!!
Absolutely terrible! From start to finish! To schedule— my general practitioner had to put four referrals through. Still no calls to schedule and when I called them, they mysteriously never received anything. It took my GP nurse to actually get an appointment for in the books for Dr Estilo. Week before— get everything they asked for prepared! Felt great, like yes! Yes let’s finally get back to a somewhat normal life, ideally any bit of pain free at this point would mean wonders! Set all the alarms, because you have to arrive 30+ mins earlier than your appointment time. Appointment time— arrive 45 early, wait another two and a half hours, to be called back. And wait another 45 mins. Literally no one else in office. Dr comes in, immediately judging. Could not get a word in edgewise. She didn’t want to hear what you have to say. Go over things, judgingly, for another 45. To end up walking out because of you can’t go to the hospital and pee but WILL pee there NOW forthem, sitter issues)

Doesn’t listen
I had left her a good review after my first visit….but after or on my 3rd I showed her my inflammation levels (or I tried to) which are over 110, she looked at me like I was nuts. Is was at that point I decided to look elsewhere and I’m so glad I did! There are way more doctors out there, willing to help and mostly LISTEN! The lady at the front desk was super nice and friendly, but as for the doctor….forget it.

Doesn’t listen and has very bad bedside manners. She didn’t listen to me about my past medical history and that I have had 14 surgeries in 7 years. You need help with your pain go see someone else she won’t help you.

Very knowledgeable Dr. She was the first I've ever seen who knew I had hightened sensitivity from my diseases/meds and addressed that issue. No one has thought of that in the last 7 years of my disability. She was very thorough and caring. I would highly recommend her.

I am an RN and have Fibromyalgia and also sciatica caused by SI joint dysfunction that has been misdiagnosed for years. No doctors listened to me even though I have researched my sciatica issues through medical journals and scientific research. I tested Dr. Estilo' knowledge by giving her just my basic information and her treatment options were spot on with the latest research and the gold standard of treatment options! I trust her completely and am thrilled with her bedside manner. She LISTENED
