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.

THE BEST!!!!
Simply put, Dr. Coker was the BEST! I had an ear problem that was really bothering me, and she not only fixed it, but did it quickly! For me, her warmth and friendliness were what really made it stand out! She possesses every attribute that makes a GREAT doctor, in my opinion! All of the staff members that I came in contact with were very pleasant & added to the wonderful experience!

This was my first visit with Dr. Coker, and I was pleasantly surprised by how personable and attentive she was. She genuinely cared about my concerns, taking the time to listen without making me feel rushed or dismissed—an experience that, unfortunately, is all too common with some doctors. Her warm demeanor, combined with a great sense of humor, made the appointment both comfortable and enjoyable. I left feeling heard, valued, and well cared for.
