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 100% recommend Dr Flippo.
I had my Wellness Exam. Dr Flippo then spent time to review my results and answer questions.I'm very pleased.

Excellent physicals and follow-up
We just had our annual physicals and find them very thorough. I would recommend Dr. Flippo and his practice to anyone needing an excellent doctor.

The Best
Dr. Flippo has a genuine care for his patients and takes time to not only diagnose but to get to know his parents on a personal level. I have known and used Dr. Flippo for over 12 years for my primary physician and highly recommend him to my family and friendsDan

Dr FLIPPO is the best. I hope he doesn’t retire!
Outstanding in every way! In 62 years I’ve never met a man who was more perfectly suited for his calling. People spend a lifetime looking for their calling. I thank God Dr FLIPPO found his, and that I found him! He has changed my life trajectory and expectancy! I cannot be more grateful and thankful that he is my Physician! As I’ve said many times, he has no peers and should be the Poster Dr for MDVIP. Whatever amount of compensation he earns is not enough no matter what it is. Genuine, has become a friend who is engaged in what’s going on with me. There aren’t enough stars in the sky to rate him highly enough! Anyone who doesn’t give him the highest praise and ratings is simply not paying attention!

I recently had a medical emergency on a Sunday. I called Dr. Flippo On Sunday and he saw me first thing Monday morning and already had an outpatient test scheduled for me that was necessary on that same Monday at another location. He called me with results that SAME afternoon and then scheduled me for other necessary outpatient tests that same afternoon to be done within 48 hours at a local hospital. All of this in the wake of COVID when everything is moving at a slower pace except of course any medical practice. This level of service from Dr. Flippo and his staff is incredible. You will not find a better more caring physician.

Dr Flippo is very knowledgeable and has a talent for breaking medical terms down for anyone...I have been his patient for more than 2 decades and have never considered another physician I was a nursing supervisor in a nursing home that he was the attending physician years ago and when I saw how he treated patients, families and staff I was sure he was the one I would trust with my care! Head a great man and physician!

Love, compassion and attentiveness is what a patient receives from Dr Flippo. Dr Flippo will genuinely greet you when you walk in the office and spends every moment with you during your appointment time. Rather than staring at a lap top, he looks at you and listens. You have his full attention. One of the greatest callings in life is that of a servant Dr Flippo is humbled and honored to be your doctor. His care and support for his patients allows him to be part of your life.
