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 Hakala is a good doctor as long as you are sitting right in front of her. She does not return phone calls. She has a staff but I have yet to understand what they do as faxing or answering phones seems difficult for them. She is compassionate but lacks follow through. She is very difficult to get a hold of unless you are paying for her time in a session.

Dr. Sheryl is very awesome! I was going through a rough time in my life and she was highly praised by a very good friend of mine. She is very easy to talk to, makes you feel very comfortable, and is super easy to talk to. She returns your texts very quickly and will call you to check on you and just chat.

Dr. Hakala is a warm, compassionate and caring physician. She made feel at ease. It was like talking to an old friend from college. She truly cares about her patients and the treatment plans she designs for them. I would highly recommend Dr Sheryl for anyone that may be going through a difficult time in their life. She is the best!
