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.

Had a nightmare experience with a previous Merced doctor and decided to try out Dr Loredo with my new pregnancy. He definitely exceeded my expectations. He is very caring and personable. So thankful I found him to care for me during my pregnancy. Absolutely recommend Dr. Loredo!

Don’t think twice avoid this doctor
I was referred to him for a bilateral salpingectomy only for him to tell me my insurance did not cover it and he was only going to do a tubal ligation after we agreed on the bilateral salpingectomy it was confirmed with the hospital that I was approved for the bilateral salpingectomy he just didn’t want to do We’re supposed to be able to trust our doctors and he switched up everything right before the surgery and then blamed it on me saying that was too much back-and-forth

Dr Loreado is a great Dr. He has delivered both of my daughters and I have had no complement with the dr BUT his insurance coordinator Linda is the reason I will NOT be returning to his office. I've delt with her before and just thought she had a bad attitude but just recently I went into the office and she was very unprofessional and made me feel very little of myself for not knowing insurance info I left the office in tears & was very rude with my husband when he called. No longer a patient
