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.

Friendly, but not great with medications
The good: Friendly, kind, listening Convent location Flexible Scheduling Needs improvement: -Didn't offer a solution to helping a patient ween off of a medication. No lower dosage prescribed. I was told, "just let me know" when I can go to a lower dose, and she would send in the new medication. - When informed of a medication I've been on for migraines and would need a new prescription for it and to fight it with insurance. I didn't receive a response. She however provided samples of it.

Very thorough
I've had 4 visits with her, 3 in person and 1 virtual and they were all exceptional. Answered all questions and explained rationale for all testing. I'm very pleased with her care.

New patient appointment
During the appointment she spent more time reading my file and typing than listening to me. Her notes were wildly inaccurate after reviewing. She refused to write the referrals I requested because I did not have a specific name to give her, she said if I came back with the name of a doctor I wanted to be referred to she could do it.. I had to practically beg her to examine a biopsy site that was very bruised and causing me a lot of pain. I was told the lab was closing and they did not have time to do the lab work I requested, they only had time to do a drug screen (It was about 3:20 in the afternoon), that I would have to come back another day for it. If you are a woman, value honesty in a medical setting, and want control over your health do not waste your time and money with her.
