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.

I was prediabetic and he never told me. I took initiative this year to figure out my health for myself, but it would’ve been nice to know I was in the prediabetic range. I even called back and asked about my results and no one mentioned it and I’ve been to him twice this year. Absolutely terrible , especially as a man of color himself, he should’ve atleast told me and I’m highly disappointed. I saw him in January and it’s December and I’m just learning I was in that range then.

Doctor seems fine. Receptionist not helpful.
I scheduled my last appointment online. I used their website, but they somehow couldn't find my appointment in THEIR system. Just kept repeating that they didn't see the appointment, even when I showed them my confirmation email. And asked me to state the reasons for the visit OUT LOUD in the public reception area. No apologies. No "he's not here, but nurse so-and-so can see you". No other semi-solutions. Nothing except scheduling me for a visit an entire MONTH in the future when I asked for the next availability.

Outstanding Practice
I have been a patient of Dr. Peebles for approximately 4 years, and have always received excellent service from the entire staff. Dr. Peebles does never rushed through my visits and asked questions about my health, as well as answering all of my questions completely. His office staff are always professional, courteous and available to answer questions when I call. I would highly recommend Dr. Peebles to anyone looking for a quality healthcare professional.

My appointment was scheduled for 1pm. When I got there the office was on lunch. I had no problem waiting. I saw the receptionist and another colleague walk in at 1:02pm. I tried to open the door but it still was locked. I remained patient. Finally at 1:08pm I become impatient and knocked on the door. The receptionist came to the door and I made her aware that I had an appointment at 1:00 she told me they had been trying to contact me to let me know that the doctor wasn’t in and that my appointment was canceled. They called a cellphone that was no longer mine but I updated on the site when I made the appointment. I then walked to the front desk to verify my information. The other receptionist stated she called my home number and someone hung up which I know wasn’t true I was extremely disappointed because normally if that was extremely disappointed that no second call was made to leave a voicemail. I was suppose to be a first patient I am extremely disappointed

It started off rocky at the front desk. I know with covid precautions. But the front desk dint even give me a chance to explain I’m my mom representative. She just went into she can’t be in here talking about my child. I thought it would be someone for her to sit in the hall but it was not. Next time we will bring folding chairs. I’m not one to leave my children with anyone because of personal reason. But after we got to the back with the nurse my mom was in the system and he old information prefilled. But we explain and I just moved past that part because I understand. I made a choice not to left that bother me. Once we got in met the doctor. Blew our minds away. It’s hard finding a good doctor that listen to patients. My mom gets Medicare and some doctors don’t care about the quality of care giving to those patients. He look myself and my mom in the eyes entire time, then came up with a plan so see what we need to do and work on for her. So he can either take away or add to her trea

As usual, the appointment went well. But, the office didn't forward my lab results to my other provider. I did fill out the required paperwork.

Dr. Peebles is very thorough and knowledgeable. His bedside manner is exceptional. You can tell he genuinely cares about your health and well being. He is very professional, at the same time makes you feel comfortable in talking with him about any health issues. I travel from No. VA to RVA for his services. His staff works with my schedule too. His follow up is remarkable!
