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.

Knowledgeable Physician
I was referred to Dr. Carter by another neurologist for additional treatment. Dr. Carter reviewed my records, tested me, and diagnosed me. He explained my condition clearly and answered all my questions. In fact, he noticed and explained an issue that has affected me all my life. He is kind, considerate, and personable. I felt listened to and well cared for. I highly recommend him.

Dr. Carter was recommended to me for treatment of BPPV and dizziness by a Physical Therapist. He was thorough with his initial examination, tests and questions. I saw Dr. Carter twice for treatment. On my third visit I was free of vertigo. He performed a few more tests and was satisfied with my progress. I had suffered with vertigo for 9 months.

Dr. Nathaniel Carter did nothing for me in regards to my injuries & treatment. I saw him a few times to get a second opinion & he would just agree with my first neurologist diagnosis, treatment, prescriptions, etc. He had absolutely nothing new to offer. Office visits were rushed (consisting general routine checks) & then he would type on his computer our conversation detailing issues from the last visit. Charging my lawyer for copying fees that were ridiculously high for my medical chart/record was unprofessional & violation of HIPPA HITECH ACT. Even over charging me for a copy of my own chart. Reviewing my chart containing 2 years’ worth of office visits, they were filled w/medical errors & mistakes that needed amended before the deposition. After requesting an amendment w/giving the correct information, he refused in amending my chart & would not state the reason, which is also a violation of HIPAA & last straw in terminating our physician-patient treatment. I do not recommend.

I suffered from vestibular neuritis. Was an aweful experience. Dr. Carter was highly recomended by my ENT and a physical therapist who specialize in these disorders. Dr. Carter helped to guide me through this; and did so with compassion, truly taking an interest in me and my condition.

Dr. Carter was thorough in his tests for an neuro-opt problem. Within a few weeks, he was able to determine the issue and prescribe the solution. I have been seeing double for years and suffered through migraines. I feel like I've got my life back!

Dr. Carter is totally involved with my condition. I have recommended him to my sister and she has become his patient as well. He takes his time with each of us and explains everything. He has called me at my home several times and remained there for me when I need him. After seeing him for another matter, and finding his knowledge valuable concerning my M.S., I requested he be my Neurologist. Am glad I did!!!!
