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.

Won’t be goung back. I first thought she was just disorganized but I HAVE TO BRING HER my lab reports every time. She spends less than 5 minutes with me.

I'm not sure if she listened in her ethics classes but she is extremely rude, and if you're rude back or don't put up with her disrespect she will just release you as a patient. She will make you wait an hour just to do a quick little 5 minute appointment to belittle you then prescribe you some medicine.

Several reasons I give them a "1" Star rating... *Wrong medicine was called in and I had a terrible reaction to it. *Nurses are in "Clinicals" EVERY time you need to speak to someone *They can't seem to get contact information correct *I was prescribed a medicine that was discontinued and can't get anyone to call me back to prescribe an alternative. *My prescription has been called into the wrong pharmacy * Dr. basically washed her hands of me if her treatment plan didn't work INCOMPETENT!
