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. Cater is an amazing Doctor!
Dr. Cater has always seemed to care when i have to come for my visit. She never rushes me or is rude at all. She has to leave to delivery babies but that is her job and she is good at it. She has a nurse practitioner to help out for yearly visits and things if you don't want to wait on her while she is at the hospital. If you dont like this you should go to only a gynecologist and not one who is also obstetrician. To me she is worth the wait!

DO NOT COME HERE unless you enjoy wasting your time and being treated like your concerns are irrelevant. Dr. Cater herself is an amazing doctor and it is really concerning that her "support" staff is not willing to meet the needs of her patients. I was made to wait over 4 months with debilitating endometriosis pain before I was finally allowed to meet with Dr. Cater. Since then it has been nothing but trouble trying to get my new prescription and getting answers to my pressing questions about that prescription. I came to this office in desperate need of help as the endometriosis now effects every aspect of my life, and after 5 months of being a patient there I have received little to no help with my condition. Please provide any recommendations you might have for adequate OBGYNs that actually care for their patients.

Dr Cater used forceps and my granddaughter was not breathing when she was born. They had to revive my granddaughter then she had a seizure and her blood sugar dropped. My granddaughter has a brain bleed and we will not know if there’s any major brain damage till she about two. Dr Cater has not even followed up on my daughter or granddaughter.

Dr. Cater is not rushed. She cares about what I am going through and is genuinely concerned. She is very thorough to make sure she finds out what is going on.
