Ratings and reviews

an awesome idea! definitely wish something like this was around at the beginning of my pregnancy journey.

I'm sure the app has potential and could be great. Unfortunately I have to divulge my income and insurance type to be able to provide a review. Which sucks because my midwife is amazing. You can't read a Dr/hospital's review if it has less than 3 reviews 😒 Also, when setting up the account the birthday feature is wonky and it took days to get my accurate info in. The only way I was able to was to input the wrong date so it'd eventually put mine "by mistake".

Very awesome that a woman of color created this for other woman of color. Cannot understand how humans who chose to become a doctor choose to only help and give the best quality of care to people of the same skin color. Through this app woman will know what places are good and which places are not. I truly believe that through this app there will be less deaths. Thank you for creating this app.
