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.

Professional
Dr. Little is courteous and doesn't hesitate to put on his doctor's hat and diagnose and, or treat whatever symptom one may have. I am quick to recommend him to anyone seeking a professional, general internal physician.

Best Doctor Ever
Dr. Little is very passionate about his patients. I have several friends who are also his patient and we all rave about his medical care and attention for our individual needs. My only regret is that I didn't find him sooner. To me he is the best of the best! Highly, highly recommend. I don't usually leave reviews but I HAD to in this case.

I trust his judgment and feel he handles a situation with the appropriate protocol as opposed to someone else who saw me and made a premature course of action.
