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.

Dr. Hood is very personable and always there for me when I need her. She has always taken the time to be a very good listener. She is the BEST.

Dr. Hood is one of the finest, most caring physicians you will find. She gives you the impression that you are her most important patient. She listens to you like a friend and follows up via phone to see how you are doing. When was the last time your doctor called you? Mine did today.
