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.

horrible experience. cannot recommend
Saw Dr Sims at Horizons for maybe 15 years until he retired. Family and inlaws had seen same doctor for over 20 years. Dr Sims was the best doctor we ever had. After Dr Sims retired, saw Dr Williams a few times but I did not think he was listening to me, so I called Horizons, at some point, and asked if I could see the same doctor my wife was seeing at Horizons but they said no, that not allowed. Then someone different called me from Horizons and said I could not see Dr Williams ever again and that I was banned from seeing any doctor at Horizons. Dr Williams never called me or spoke with me about it, so still do not know why this happened. I thought I had a serious condition at the time and may still have, so this was scary, especially given that Columbus does not have a vast number of practices. Banned for life.

Had my first visit with dr. Williams. I take 19 different medications so we had alot to get through. I found him to be patient compassionate and through. I felt he really cared about me and my medical issues. This is not easy to find in this day and age when things are rush rush rush and see as many patients as you can. I look forward to having him as my doctor for years to come.

Dr. Williams attended for my grandmother while in Rehab. Her medications were changed to asinine dosages. Requesting assistance was a joke. He is just attending for the money. He does not show that he cares for the patient. He even prescribed a Rx that was NOT GOOD for her current dx.
