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.

You wouldn't believe what she did on my last visit. No one should have to experience that. So I just stopped going to that clinic.

Dr Callender was friendly, knowledgeable, and business like. She gave me opportunity to ask questions, and answered them. I liked her. I think having a print out of diagnosis, or even a written explanation of terms would be nice, since some were new to me. She seemed to take appropriate time to perform her examination, however she seemed somewhat rushed in her manner. I expect she had much to do. I didn't feel rushed, but she seemed to be.
