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.

Uppity and rude. Did nothing to help my child. Lies in her notes about what you say so be careful to record each one on your phone as I did so when she pulls that you can file a board complaint against her license. These doctors will lie to cover themselves, protect you and your child. Sad days, but honest.

Dr. S. Winchester is a mean, evil person ... who does not care about her patients. My daughter is severely autistic and she would rather make money than help an autistic child!! (Because of her, my daughter is running out of her meds - I have no idea how I will be able to control her worst behaviors if I cannot use medicine to control her moods.)

Today was our first visit with Dr. Winchester. She put my son, and us, at ease from the moment she walked in the door. Her bedside manner was amazing! She really listened to our concerns, and took notes of our son's past injuries. She laid out a plan of action, and explained everything extremely well. For the first time, in a long time, I am excited that my son may get the help he needs. Feeling relieved that we were referred to her.
