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.

I was excited to go to Dr. Watts because we have quite a few connections. I have only been to Dr. Watts a couple of times, but the last time I went to him, I left his office in tears. He did not bring in my chart, so he had no idea who I was. I waited for a long time in my gown so I was sweating like crazy by the time he came in. He kept calling me the wrong name during the appointment. That was awesome. He first asked if I was experiencing menopausal symptoms, which I was surprised by since I'm in my mid-40's. He told me it usually happens around 52 years old and quickly dismissed it. I was very self-conscious because he must have thought I looked like I was in my 50's. Then he asked how my periods were. I had to remind him that I do not have periods and take birth control pills to avoid having them. He looked confused and asked why we were doing that. I had to remind him that I have had endometriosis so I cannot have periods. Then he said, "And you have 5 children?

Highly recommend! Dr. Watts and his staff are the best in the state!!! Definitely in a league of their own. I’ve been to numerous gynecologist in different states, over the last three decades. Not one, came close. My mother is now a client and my sister travels from Jackson hole to see him.

I really love St. Mark's OBGYN and Associates and Dr. Daren Watts. I wouldn't ever go anywhere else and highly recommend them, especially Dr. Watts. He is so nice and comfortable to talk to as well as a top rated Physician. He immediately knew what was wrong with me and fixed it. He took good care of my medical issue and I'm good as new now. The office staff is wonderful and whenever I have contacted the office I got same day responses. The wait times are not long at all and the office is very nice and clean. 5+ stars for Dr. Watts and this practice.

I have been to many doctors for years in attempt to figure out my chronic pelvic and abdominal pain. Dr. Watts listened to me, reassured me, and made my concerns feel validated. I figured out what's going on (endo with adhesions). I feel like I'm making progress on the road to recovery, and I owe it to Dr. Watts. I would 100% recommend this very kind and skilled doctor.

I would recommend Dr. Watts for any Ob-Gyn issues. The office personal are friendly. I didn't wait long in the waiting room or in the exam room. Dr. Watts is friendly and listened to my issues. He explains the procedure he was doing and why. He called me personally with the results of my tests. I would never go anywhere else.

Dr. Watts is the best doctor I have ever had. He always takes the time to listen, he takes copious notes, and actually cares about my feelings as well as my health. His waiting room is beautiful, and his nurse Rebecca is also incredible. The office always moves heaven and earth to meet my needs. I am so thankful that he's my doctor. I met him when I was in the ER once, and I dropped my doctor of a decade to be his patient. I never realized that there were doctors who actually cared.

I have been living with severe abdominal pain for years that unfortunately has not been taken seriously by other Drs. I was referred to Dr.Watts and for the first time I felt cared for and heard. Dr.Watts knew how important it was to me that we find a solution to my pain. I am so thankful that I didn't lose hope before seeing Dr Watts. He is the most caring and understanding man and I would recommend him to anyone!!!!!
