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've been a patient since arriving in Maine, in 2014. His skills in Eastern and Western medicine are up to date and I have been most satisfied with his holistic approach - especially his acupuncture applications! He is empathetic and concerned about long term and short term health care and treatment. He is attuned to new and effective noninvasive treatments. I have the utmost respect for he and his experienced staff members. I have never before experienced the effective care and treatment in my 73 yrs that I have received by Dr Conner, and I have been treated by nationally acclaimed health physicians and medical facilities in NC and Va! I just have NO idea what I would do if he retires.

My chosen doctor since 2006
I have seen Dr. Conner for many years. I love that he offers both Eastern and Western medicine. If you really want to be an active participant in your own care, he is your guy. He has been very open to discussing various modalities, some that I have suggested, in resolving various physical issues that I have been dealing with and we together reached great success. He has dissuaded me from some testing in the past but he was not wrong so just because you don’t get what you want, doesn’t mean he doesn’t care. He is appropriately decisive,, thorough and kind. He listens and does hear reasonable suggestions. Trust and perseverance is something that goes both ways with great health being the end goal. I feel honored to have had him as my doctor and have no idea what I will do whenever he retires.

Dr. Conner healed a ferocious rash that could have covered my entire body. I understand the uses of many herbs but could not heal this completely to the point that it went away. He did. Nice job!!

Dr. Conner has a unique blend of old fashioned actual LISTENING (aka empathy) and taking time and care to involve you with the diagnosis and prognosis, with current best practices in 21st century medical science. He offers methodology drawn from Western and Eastern medicine for healing and remaining healthy. He stays current with the constant barrage of medical situations that we all face, not just in the age of Covid 19, but in everyday modern life. He is a true holistic medicine practitioner. It is the good fortune of northern Maine that he chose to live and work here.

Extremely thorough. I'm 66 yrs old and Dr Connor leaves no stone unturned in his examining and questioning when we meet. His skill set is excellent and his demeanor is very good. I have a number of medical problems and Dr Connor is excellent at managing them. I'd highly recommend him.

I've had great results with Dr Conner. He has been my PCP since he came to Maine. The negative reviews that you see here are from drug abusers that won't adhere to the program. I've been in the office before when one person flipped out and demanded that he get another chance. I've over heard a couple talking that Dr Conner is a no bs guy, don't lie to him and he will work with you.

Was originally referred to Dr. Conner by Paul V. in Van Buren due to a very back injury I had caused myself by lifting something verrry heavy. This doctor cured me without pills or surgery, but with specific exercises only... Been well since and that was a few years ago, so he is still my #1 doctor!

Dr. Conner is the only provider in the area that has a natural approach to medical care. I have been his patient for 7 years and find him to be open to my preferences of care and limited pharmaceutical uses. I would recommend him to people who want this kind of care.

He is an MD, accupuncturist and herbalist. From the perspective of a patient desiring treatment that minimizes the use of pharmaceutical drugs and surgery, he has all the important bases covered.

Terrible. His staff is very very rude. I don't understand why he is even a Suboxone doctor because he does not think about nor know about the battle of addiction. He will make you feel terrible about yourself and tries to belittle you.Has his dogs living in his office and one day when I walked in for an appointment there is actually a pile of dog poop on the floor. I was so disgusted and I told the staff about it and they were very rude to me and next thing I know I get a discharge paper in mail
