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.

Simple anal injection of medication. In a week after, my condition is way more worse than before the injection: bleeding, and pain all day. Did not discussed the biopsy. Absolute fail.

Dr Scott is amazing
I was referred to Dr Scott after a colonoscopy found an issue. She could not have been more professional. She has an amazing way of making you comfortable & getting you thru any awkwardness.So glad I had her to rely on during this process.

Professional, personable, and knowledgeable
Dr. Scott made me feel comfortable at what is otherwise an uncomfortable appt. She was very knowledgable and explained things thoroughly, but also in a humorous manner. While she was professional, you almost felt like you were talking with a friend, rather than a doctor.

Outstanding!
I have been a patient of this practice for many years. My doctor retired and I was scheduled with Dr. Scott. She is amazing. I was nervous about a new doctor but she put my mind at ease. She is compassionate, thorough, efficient, and she makes me feel heard. I feel confident in her care. I can’t say enough about her.

Great Dr.
The concern the compassion and the personalization with sitting with Dr. Scott is above any doctor we have used. She has been a rock and a wonderful surgeon for my husband. She’s never hesitant does not pull any punches and by God she knows what she’s doing.

Excellent listener
I was referred to Dr Scott for a miner problem which caused discomfort. Dr Scott examined me, told me what the problem is and the strategies she would suggest. She is very respectful of a patient’s privacy. She spoke to me before having me undress and then left the room and waited for me to redress before sitting down and discussing options. It may seem like a small consideration but it definitely changes the physician/patient dynamics.
