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.

I had a lovely experience during my pregnancy with Dr. Howard and her office staff! We instantly became, well, friends and I was glad I selected her for my doctor. My son was delivered without issues and Dr. Howard made my first and only pregnancy experience a meaningful one. If I have a second baby I'll be contacting her again!!

×Post a ResponseAre you Dr. Howard?
Problems: 1) Filled out release form MONTH BEFORE appt & was notified on day of appt that records were never received. 2) Later received bill upwards of $300 for lab work that I already had done at prior DR office. I let Dr. Howard know that I already had lab work done for this pregnancy, but was told that these tests were "different"....they weren't. 3) I scheduled 9:30 appt, but rescheduled for 1:30. Was told they'd update my time...they did NOT; Therefore, long wait time..seriously! BEWARE!
