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.

WORST
Visited the doctor with a sinus infection and ear infection on a Tuesday at 2:50. Office was crazy as usual and the doctor was running late, which is normal for him. I only took at appointment with him because I was desperate. He gave me prescription, I went to the pharmacy later and they said we do not have anything. I called, sent a note in the portal, and the after hours nurse said there are no notes of you being here. Waited till morning, felt 1000% worse, called the office and again, they said there are no notes in the system of anything. Thank the lord I was not dying.....still waiting for them to call me in a script at this time.

Dr. Stokes is an awesome doctor. I just love him. He listens and takes your concerns seriously. I don't go to the doctor very often and he knows when I come to take me seriously. He is so compassionate and it only took one day for him to call back with results for my physical and thyroid results. I can't say enough good things about Dr. Stokes. He is amazing. It's hard to find a doctor that truly listens and is caring. I actually look forward to seeing him when I have to schedule an appointment. Great doctor, great staff.
