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.

Got a TBI in 2019
I was sent to her after a TBI. I’m told she never once examined me. I almost died because my brain kept telling my heart beating was optional. She said it was impossible. Hey quack, it’s called autonomic dysfunction affecting the parasympathetic nervous system. Very possible. If you want to die, go see her. If I hadn’t kept passing out and kept hitting my head over and over again I probably would’ve gotten better. Instead I’m this less than because she couldn’t come out behind her podium.

Felt unwelcome
I was referred to her. The whole time I’m in there she made me feel like I was imagining things. She did a few tests and said well I don’t see anything and I will try to get you a MRI if insurance pays to make you feel better . I felt like I was bothering her. She couldn’t smile at all! I wouldn’t have come to her unless something was wrong. I know my body and something is different. I would not recommend this doctor. It may be time for her to retire

Waited in the waiting room an hour, only one person in front of me, she was very rude, ask me why I was there, I told her I was referred to her by another doctor, she said she didn’t have time for me, I tried to tell her what was going on and she said, she couldn’t do it.

I left today’s appointment unseen after sitting in the waiting room for 50 minutes. I was only the 2nd patient this morning. Not a single word from her staff until I left wanting my copay reimbursed. She was that late on our first visit but I stuck it out. She then rushed me through my symptoms and the steps I’d gone through to get treated. If you value your time, go elsewhere.
