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. Pophal is one of the best doctor. He takes his time and explains everything. Everyone was so friendly. Larry is outstanding as well.

Most trusted doctor I have
Dr. Pophal's staff is efficient and friendly and keeps you moving so you're not waiting forever. Dr. Pophal himself is super friendly and explains everything he's doing. I wouldn't switch for anything!

I was very satisfied with the surgery and follow up services rendered by Dr. Pophal early in 2015. He was thorough and patient in answering my questions and allaying my fears and was also responsive in negotiating my particular medical preferences. I think competence is the most important quality in selecting one's physician, but bedside manner can make the experience much more palatable. I give this doctor high marks on both of these factors.

I took my 83 year old father for an appointment for a vision problem he was having. My father has been a patient for years. Dr. Pophal was abrupt and impatient with my father when asking him questions. I don't even feel that he addressed my father's vision problems. When I asked him questions, he seemed annoyed and put out! We will NOT be making any other appointments with this Dr.!
