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 Powell was great. Introduced himself, talked about med conditions and procedures. Explained thoroughly. Friendly, compassionate and professional.

Great experience!
I was seen quickly,
My procedure was explained and I was asked if I understood everything he explained to me and he asked me when he finished if I had any questions.
I’ve been to see a lot of doctors in my lifetime (I’m 66) and he is definitely at the top.

Dr. Powell himself is a very good doctor however, his office staff and nurse is horrendous at returning phone calls. I had active rectal bleeding and the office never called us back about it. Will never go to his office again.

In all the years my wife and I have been seeing him he has done very little to solve our problems. You get better advice from his assistance's. He even one time told me I was welcome to find another doctor - very professional.

Dr. Powell is simply the best!! His staff and the surgery center staff agree with me that he is a wonderful physician & person. I've had two procedures handled by him after using other Pensacola providers for 8 years. My family and I will never use any other now. May he never retire!

I have been visiting Dr. Powell for several years now. He saved my life in the early 1990's and I am thankful for his knowledge and capability every day. He has always taken my condition seriously and taken time to obtain the knowledge needed to deal with a very complicated condition. I would certainly recommend him and his office to anyone needing this kind of doctor. Thumbs up to Dr. Powell.
