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. Phillips is great. She has been our doctor for years. We trust her more than any other doctor and would never switch.

Service has not been as good as other doctors or staffs that I have encountered from living in different locations. She came highly regarded through personal referrals and I personally have yet to see where the high regard is. Questions are rarely answered and Dr. Phillips seems to busy to address my concerns. I started to write all of my questions down and had to check them off to ensure they are answered. I typically have to followup as she is walking out the door to try and get an answer.

I went to Dr for my whole life. Recently I made the decision to switch to a different doctor. I felt like my needs and concerns were not being treated properly. Not to mention it can take months sometimes to even see her. The staff at the office have the worst customer service skills I have ever seen. I was constantly on hold waiting to talk to someone. Then when you do talk to someone they're rude and don't care. Im glad I'm now seeing a doctor with friendly staff and who takes time to listen.

I have been a patient of Dr. Phillips for most of my life. She is kind, compassionate, very knowledgeable, takes time to listen to her patients no matter what time of day it is. Always willing to fit you into her schedule. I now take my son to her versus choosing a pediatrician. I can't recommend her enough!
