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.

Mom of 3
We have known Dr. Watkins for a year now, he was actually referred to us by a physician in the hoslital. He has been absolutely amazing to us. Best pediatrician I have ever had for my kids. We have been to so many to try and see who is best for us. We stopped looking once we found him. His care is very thorough and he Is always so kind to my kids. He is very professional and obviously very passionate about his career. From a mother of a 11 month old, 4 yer old, and 6 year old.

A "Doctor" who lures kids into unnecessary shots.
Go to Dr. Watkins at your own risk! We sent an 18 y.o. kid to be seen for coughing - just so the Dr. listens to his lungs, to make sure everything is clear. Instead, that "Doctor" Watkins (with an accounting degree) gave our child 3 unnecessary shots, 2 of which were given specifically against our (parents) will! Dr. Watkins might or might not be good at accounting, but he has no rights to conduct medical experiments on our kids behind our back, to maximize his personal income.

Dr. Watkins has been both of our son’s physician since birth. He is incredibly kind and patient. His demeanor with the children is so calm and caring that our boys actually enjoy visiting at well visits and consider him their friend. Whenever we have had to visit because they are sick or have to get shots, covid tested, or some other unpleasant experience he still puts them at ease when they’re feeling their worst. As for the parents we feel like he is excellent at communicating with us and explaining any procedures or options for our family. We are so happy and feel very lucky to have an excellent physician for our boys that we know we can count on and trust.

Do not take your child here!! A few days ago, I took my 4-year old son to be seen because he had a temperature for four days. The physician assessed our son by checking for a possible infection in the ear and throat. The physician told us that it doesn't look like an infection and temperature should subside soon. She said that if my son was still having a temperature of 100.4 or over by Saturday (two days later) to bring him in to be seen. My son still had an infection by Saturday, and I took him in to be seen. On Saturday, the physician who saw him performed the same assessment and told me that it is not an infection, and it seems like the virus/tummy bug was just lingering. He told me that if he still had a temperature by Monday (7 days after his symptoms started), to bring him in again. My wife and I decided to take our son to urgent care because we felt we weren't getting to the root cause of my son's temperature. The urgent care physician quickly completed a urinalysis and found t
