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 would recommend him now that I need his expertise again after approximately 43 years have gone bye. Especially after learning that he and Mrs.Pelton share the same faith as I.

Dr. Pelton is a master and the best!!! He’s meticulous, unhurried, personable and listens. One feels calm in his presence and visible. I have been his patient for over 40 years and am grateful he continues to see patients. Very best wishes to this extraordinary gentleman, physician and healer!

My husband and I have had an excellent experience with Dr. Pelton. He takes his time, is not an alarmist and does what's necessary but not more. We are very pleased with the practice.

I have seen Dr. Pelton for years and brought my children and my mother to see him as well. He is a caring, compassionate physician that takes time to listen to me during my visits. I have had several spots removed including a skin cancer on my face- he did a beautiful job and hid the scar right in a smile line! I recommend him to all of my friends and family.

I was very dissatisfied with my visit to Dr. Pelton over the summer. He was very vague, didn't exactly answer my questions, gave me two botched mole removals (they look awful), and didn't disclose how much I would owe (over $600, including a bill from the lab). I will not be going back.
