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.

Misdiagnosed
Dr. Heard properly diagnosed me with one issue - PCOS, but completely ignored my continued symptoms of other problems. Ultimately, another physician agreed to perform surgery, and she figured out I had End Stage Endometriosis, Adenomyosis, fibroids and endometrial polyps. Dr. Heard told me (wrongly) that nothing else but PCOS was wrong making me feel like my continued symptoms were all in my head. They weren’t. I later found out that my ultrasounds taken every three months at his office showed these other problems but were not diagnosed. Thankfully, the other doctor found them and I had to have a complete hysterectomy.

He is one of the worst doctors that I have seen my life. He does not remember the case history, what medications he gave,etc. He does not even care read my case file before my visit. In addition, he just follows the rules and does not care about the symptoms I am having and how he could possibly adjust the treatment. He is clearly money minded and that's more important to him than anything else.
