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.

Dr Howse is very attentive to our health situations. Thanks to Dr. Howse ordering a chest x-ray when my wife had no noticeable symptoms, lung cancer was detected early and her life was saved!

Dr. Howse has been our family doctor since just after my son was born almost 17 years ago. When he moved from the southside to the northside, we followed him even though it is now almost an hour to drive to his office. I couldn't imagine having a different doctor. He is knowledgeable, compassionate and personable. I would recommend Dr. Howse to anyone who wants a good doctor. I trust Dr. Howse with my life, but more importantly, with my son's life. He is great!

I have been a patient of his for over 10 years. He is an excellent Doctor and I would trust him completely with my life. He is caring, compassionate and listens to you. He does not order unnecessary tests, but when they are needed he always does. He works hard to heal or make his patients quality of life better. I would recommend him to anyone.
