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. Stockton
Everyone was quick efficient and personally friendly to me and listened to my back issues and treated me with kindness and put me on a recovery plan. Dr. Stockton is number one to me for showing genuine compassion and concern!!

Very fast.
I have enjoyed my visits with Dr Stockton. However , this visit was for a second injection and he swept in and out without an opportunity to ask questions. The radiology and office staff with the exception of the check out person were extraordinarily kind !

Absolutely phenomenal
I broke my ankle in 3 places at midnight. The ER made an error and incorrectly reduced my fracture, but Dr Stockton caught it and had them call me back to fix it. Every appointment thereafter, including surgery, couldn’t have been easier or more comforting. Dr. Stockton is knowledgeable, confident, and reassuring throughout the entire process. He answered all my questions and never made it seem like they were silly. I had my 6-month post-fracture appointment this week and my ankle is better than I ever thought it would be. I have regained almost all my range of motion and am back to my very active lifestyle, including going to the gym and riding my horses. I trust my ankle because I trust Dr. Stockton, and I’m back to everything that’s important to me because of him. I could not recommend a physician or a surgeon any more thoroughly or with greater praise.

Dr Stockton is competent and willing to discuss my condition clearly. He is not ready to recommend surgery and wants my feedback to what he is telling me. There is no pressure. He was interested in my feelings re surgery. He discussed the pros and cons and what surgery could or could not do
