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.

My back
I saw Dr Braswell over a year ago. I had several injections at a Drs office for my back. Then was sent to another Dr. Was put to sleep, had another injection which did not help at all. Finally my back pain was so bad I could hardly walk. I took it upon my self to make an appointment at the office in Zachary. I saw Dr Braswell. He took his time explaining to me exactly what the problems were with my back, which none of the other Drs did. He explained his procedure in detail. I was put to sleep, he injected my back, January of 2022. With his help and that of the good Lord i have had very little back pain since. Dr Braswell was very patient, kind and understanding. I would and have recomment him very highly

was great now hates his patients
promising doctor in his early years. now, patient needs are not a factor. only reducing personal risk, driving up cost, and keeping an "easy, profitable herd" matter.

I’ve been seeing Dr. Braswell for twenty+ years and I love him to pieces. He’s very personable and easy to talk to. The ONLY negative about going to see him is the majority of the staff. They are rude, disrespectful & unprofessional and good luck getting someone to return your calls.

Have been seeing him for several years. Really like him. He takes his time with me never rushes. I do feel the very large case load negatively affects the overall experience.

I have been seeing him for over 6 years. He has greatly helped me in managing my pain. He is thorough, knowledgable, and a very pleasant personality. Dr Braswell I trust to do what is best. The only issue I have is getting messages to him. Believe it is staff oriented.
