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. Cole is nice & well trained in this field. He was extremely quick in his diagnosis but very minimal with his explanation of the procedure. (A whirlwind appointment) I had minimal pain during & after the procedure. It did take me much longer to heal than he suggested. His office and staff were super about checking & following up with me. They are all friendly & helpful. The follow up was disappointing, with the visit being MAYBE 2 minutes! I paid full price for a visit & not a drive by!

I will NEVER again recommend this doctor nor this practice. I made the mistake of going back to this practice after I swore I would never after they denied my husband treatment but due to emergency needs - when my issues arose, I agreed to go back, thinking surely they had changed. They took my money, did some tests then referred me to a physical therapist for evaluation. The PT made recommendations however now this doctor will not follow what the PT suggested.
