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 and kind doctor
I have received asthma treatment from Dr. Keltner for decades. When I have had difficulty with my condition and have contacted his office, he always has made time to see me or take a call from me so that I could get better as fast as possible. He listens well and shows genuine concern. I am so glad that he has been my doctor for all of these years. Due to his skill, my asthma has not worsened. I recommend him highly. Thank you, Dr. Keltner!

NOT AT ALL THOROUGH AND UNPROFESSIONAL SHOULD BE INVESTIGATED DOCTOR KELTNER PASSED OUT DURING MY FIRST VISIT WITH HIM HE CAN BE RUDE AND OBNOXIOUS AND DOES NOT LIKE TO LISTEN OR PERFORM CERTAIN ASPECTS OF HIS DUTIES AS A PROVIDER SUCH AS PROVIDING THE PATIENT WITH NECESSARY SERVICES EVEN WHEN HE ACKNOWLEDGES THEIR NEED FOR IT. I THINK HE EXPECTS THE PATIENT TO DO HIS JOB FOR HIM. HIS OFFICE STAFF CAN ALSO ACT THE SAME.AND WORSE HIS RECEPTIONIST SCREAMING AT PATIENTS AND MAKING THEM FEEL UNWORTHY OF QUALITY CARE THE OFFICE IS ALSO NOT VERY CLEAN . SOME OF THE FURNITURE WAS RIPPED IN ONE OF THE EXAMINING ROOMS AND ITEMS STREWN ABOUT IN THE WAITING ROOM LOOKED LIKE THEY WERE HAVING A YARD SALE ALTHOUGH IT SAID FREE STUFF I HAD ANOTHER DOCTOR WHO WAS WHO WAS CONSIDERATE AND KIND TO HIS PATIENTS AND YOUR OPINION MATTERED WITH HIM NOT YOUR INSURANCE OR HOW MUCH MONEY LIKE THIS ONE UNFORTUNATELY HE RETIRED OH WELL LOOKS LIKE I MAY BE LOOKING FOR ANOTHER DOCTOR .
