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.

Staff is the worst of the worst. Hanges up phone on needed medication patience, Dr. never calls you back on procedures. Very unprofessional STAFF!!!!!!!

I would love to recommend Dr Portnova to all my friends and family since she is so attentive and knowledgeable . However, the medical receptionist is so uncompasiomate,unprofessional and impolite that she makes it impossible to refer that clinic to anyone.
