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.

Was trying to find a doctor that could fit me in fairly quickly due to my hernia issue. I called his office thanks, to a referral from a friend and was able to get in the next day for consultation. He took his time in explaining everything that was going to happen and even drew it out for me. Turned out I had a second one that I never even knew about. The following week I had the surgery and have been feeling great since. Everyone I dealt with was amazing. THANK YOU!!!

I had a sudden episode of upper abdominal pain. after testing at the hospital, which I have copies of that show positive results and referral by my family dr. Dr. Evans pronounced me absolutely normal and to take Prilosec. an acid inhibitor. for upper abdominal pain. he offered no explanation whatsoever for why I have a bulge protruding from under my right rib. he did not even ask if I was experiencing any pain during the appt. only asked what I ate 4 days prior. he did offer to send me for more

Very professional and polite. Everyone knew exactly what to do and it happened in a timely fashion. My first colonoscopy and I was very impressed. Dr. Evans has a great bedside manner and very easy to talk to.

I was an emergency appt that was worked in. When I went into the office the staff was very friendly and apologized in advance for the time I may need to wait due to being squeezed in between patients. Tho I ended up in the OR, I greatly appreciate all he and his staff did.
