I am a female doctor with Wheatland Internal Medicine Clinic, https://wheatlandimc.com
I have reached out to WebMD to update my new address for a while but they still have my old address, has some male photo of me which is ridiculous. WebMD is not reliable as they have outdated providers information for patients to trust.

Complete Con Job
April 18, 2023

I am writing this review from the point of view of a medical provider and advertiser. Sales presentation was duplicitous (used car lot process), started charging me before profiles were even close to ready, their websites never worked, links did not work, scheduling did not work, received only two patients after spending over $1000 with them, did not return emails promptly (if at all), refused to return phone calls, extremely unprofessional, no follow up in terms of correcting WebMD profiles. Extremely frustrating working with folks who cannot tell the truth. I would call their company a complete scam. Never, never, never advertise with these people. They are absolutely not to be trusted. There are much better ways to be found online. Recommend you stay away from them. Word to the wise…

Sex bias
November 24, 2022

There are no options for intersex in the symptom checker neither are there any mention of how symptoms might present on intersex people on any webmd article ive read, so i have to use male or female but these results wont be accurate because sex has an important role in how symptoms present for different health issues. And this discrimination affects over 1% of our population, that's as many intersex people as there are red heads, so this is not a small oversight from a supposed medical website.

The website contains helpful information about a variety of health topics. While there are more reliable websites, WebMD is a good starting place to find useful health information. I haven't always found the symptom checker helpful, which isn't intended as a diagnostic tool but does present several potential conditions to help narrow down the possibilities. Thanks to the symptom checker, I began to suspect I had appendicitis the other night and went to the hospital ER where I had an appendectomy. My experience gave me a new appreciation for WebMD.

Pharmacies won't fill
December 26, 2022

So if you are wanting to use webmd for their suboxone clinic don't pharmacies won't fill unless in person visit or dr is within 50 miles ect. The dr was great and was easy to get through the process. I was wanting to do it this way because the I person. Office was a councilor visits once a week and two dr. Visits at first so in one month I would pay $180 trying to save money. Well so much for that.

I checked a dentists reviews. The dentist had about 60 reviews on the very first day on Web MD. One day mind you. Then there were several reviews the dentist for for 5 years. Now there have been no, o, reviews at all for 3 years for this dentist on Web MD, that is, ever since the dentist responded to a negative review. Did the dentist stop paying his subscription fees to Web MD?. This is a disgusting, untruthful site to search professional reviews and ratings.
As far as articles, the recent one on IV Ketamine therapy for pai, It appears to have been paid for advertising giving false hope to patients. Insurance does not cover IV Ketamine therapy for pain. Someone should investigate Web MD o this article. Please do that and have them take their article off the site.

I just saw a video of the CEO threatening his employees to return to the office and not work from home. They had other people on there as well, it was like a hostage video with fake smiles. Blink twice if you need help. Not using webmd anymore. EVERYDAY HEALTH here I come!

Dr. Stovroff is an amazing doctor/surgeon. He has a wonderfully warm personality, he's upbeat, and is easy to speak with. He is helpful in resolving whatever health issue your child is having. He is an excellent surgeon with a caring bedside manner going above and beyond to answer questions and do everything he can to make your child recover fully and ease the minds of their parents.

In a recent review, WebMD recommended folic acid for pregnant people. Implying that men have a womb and carry carry a developing fetus. This site is apparent run by educated doctors. This is a untrue. Any doctor should know that biological fact; XX not XY

From WebMD: December 5,2022 - Folic acid is also available as a supplement, and is often used in combination with other B vitamins. Folic acid is used for preventing and treating low blood levels of folate (folate deficiency) and high blood levels of homocysteine (hyperhomocysteinemia). People who are pregnant or might become pregnant take folic acid to prevent serious birth defects such as spina bifida.
