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.

Best Doctor I Have Had
I have been going to Dr. Doherty for approximately 25 years. I have zero complaints. Great bedside manner, easy to talk to, gives very good advice, explains everything very clearly for me to understand and has always communicated very well with me via e-mails. Dr. Doherty also has prescribed the medications necessary to treat my illnesses. He definitely deserves an A plus.

When our 'family Doctor' of many years retired we were afraid of going into the 'Wellspan' system. We are both VERY HAPPY with this practice and have been amazed on the treatment, care and most importantly the time that Dr. Doherty devotes to us.

I've been a patient of Dr Doherty for some time. He has always listened to and considered my input and offered his own advice.He offers options and is thorough in his explanations. I have been satisfied with my care over the years.

When our family doctor left the practice my wife and I were told that we had to choose another doctor before we could make another appointmentt. We had to choose blindly. My wife and I do no care for Dr Doherty and the practice is making for us to choose the doctor of our choice. We inquired about two different doctors and were told that these doctors were not accepting new patients contrary to what their website shows.
