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.

As a young woman I never realized how wonderful it would be to have a young female primary care physician, but now I am blown away at the change in my life. Emily is so professional, knowledgeable, and easy to talk to. I could not recommend her more to anyone seeking a new PCP, especially women

Emily is awesome! I suffer from an autoimmune disorder and so many doctors get it wrong! She did a full blood panel, took time to meet with me regarding my concerns and made sure I had the right medication.

Doesn't need to even get any stars worst nurse practitioner I've seen. Just acts like it's a problem that your even there to take up her time to see you. Even though you beeing there is what gets her paid. Doesn't want to take time to talk to you about anything that you may be sick from or may need to help get treatment for. If you realy need help don't go to her. She don't have time to listen or care.
