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.

Very personable and knowledgeable. Will spend as much time ss required to address issues. Refers to specialist as necessary. He has the greatest nurse of all time!

I have been a patient of Dr. Wells since 2017 and have been thoroughly pleased and satisfied with his treatment. He is patient, sympathetic, and understanding and has referred me to specialists who have helped me with various conditions. He always takes time to answer my questions and explain any issues I don't understand. He has a great consultation manner and expresses concern in a sincere way. A nurse friend recommended him when I was looking for a primary care physician and I feel very lucky to have him as my doctor.

Went to Mr Wells for awhile and he NEVER figured out what was wrong with me! Would get very defensive if I asked questions or asked for test results. The fact he went through 3different nurses should say what a pain he is. He had wonderful nurses, that he disrespected, ran off or fired. Office staff was very unprofessional and extremely rude! Leaving this so called doctor was the best thing I've ever done.

I scheduled an appointment with Dr. Wells MONTHS ago. Called last week to confirm appointment set for April 2. Was told I didn't have an appointment. After going back and forth with a defensive receptionist, I rescheduled anyway. Days later I received an automated VM reminding me of the appointment I was told I did not have, then a text reminding me of the same. Called this morning to let receptionist know, she was RUDE. I will not be seeing Dr. Wells due to his staff.

Love him! He is a very good caring doctor. He takes his time with you to find the problem not just give you meds and tell you to call back if needed. I would recommend him to anyone. I have.

I have seen Dr Wells a few times now. I always enjoy seeing his nurse Stephanie's smiling face. She has been too good to me always pets me to pieces. She even calls to check on me occasionally.

Nurse Stephenie is very rude and unprofessional and the nice man Dr. Wells is tried to take the blame for her mistake. She called me another name therefore I know she wasn't looking at the correct patient information.
