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.

Dr. Flesher is a great doctor.
Dr. Flesher always takes time to explain my medical issues and allows me time to ask questions. Sometimes it's a little bit of a wait to see him but the time he gives me is totally worth the wait. I highly recommend him to my friends and family. His office staff is friendly too.

Figured out some of my chronic symptoms might be an atypical presentation of an allergic reaction. Got tested on his recommendation and it turns out I’m allergic to cats, and I have three! Treating the allergy has really helped.

He prescribed anti-depressants when I came in with a weight-loss, nausea, and stomach pain issue which resulted in 20 lbs lost over 4 weeks (10% of body weight.) Not a problem in itself as nausea subsided and I was able to eat again, the issue is that he didn't ask close to enough questions to determine if I was someone who should be taking psychotropic drugs. It was determined a month later by a psychologist that I have a bipolar disorder and should never have been placed on those drugs as it causes MANIA!!! Yeah, he literally made me go crazy for a month and refused to entertain the idea that the pharmaceuticals weren't for me because I wasn't on them long enough. During this time it got so bad that I was concerned I might injure myself, which was new as I'd never had these thoughts before, but at that time I couldn't stop thinking that way. He is also full condescending anecdotes & attempts to overcome his self-confidence issues by talking over most patients' heads.

Dr Flesher like to listen to himself talk about nonsense and when you need your prescriptions refilled he takes weeks to respond to the pharmacy. Even after multiple attempts to get him to respond. His Nurse Kristine is no better and i would never recommend anyone go to this team for healthcare.
