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.

Excellent doctor, very good with patient and family. Answers all questions with an understandable response. She truly cares about her patients and their present and future welfare. She follows up closely on their condition and is accessible. Sometimes you wait awhile because another patient has an issue but since I was one of them I completely understand and wait my turn. I feel very fortunate to have had Dr Lamar as my oncologist.

I would HIGHLY recommend Dr. Ruth Lamar. My husband and I found out we were pregnant on 2/20, on 2/23 he was diagnosed with Stage III Hodgkin's Lymphoma. We were completely blind sided to say the least... She has been so amazing with this terrifying process. Thank you so much to Dr. Lamar and her staff.
