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.

Take my word, just keep looking..
Maybe it is different for others, but every visit I have had so far with Dr. Scott he has been icy and condescending. I try to be kind with him, but he never smiles and struck me as quite spiteful even, taking subtle digs that don't relate to my health whatsoever.. On my way out of the office wondering "what he meant by that", I overheard his (rather kind) staff mentioning how he is losing many patients. If you've found yourself here, please heed these red flags.

Dr. Scott does not really listen to patients well and it may be due to his ADD. He seldom went over test results with patients and misdiagnosed on more than one occasion. He is good about sending for tests or P.T. if the situation calls for it. If he had a very detail oriented nurse who called patients back with results and didn't accept nurse practitioners for specialist physicians whom Dr. Scott referred to, it might have bailed him out on some of the issues.

Dr. Scott is an outstanding physician who cares for his patients and he goes out of his way and beyond expectation to help them. His assistant Heather is always friendly and helpful and they form a great team.

Worst doc ever. Not only did he almost let my 56 year old husband die after missing a heart issue while seeing him every 3 months for 5 years. He also bragged at the end of the day about how much money he had made that day and what he could do to make more, stated by a few of his previous staff. Sad that the money was more important than his patients.

Dr. Scott was a great listener during my appointment. I did not have to wait any more than 5 minutes for my appointment. Highly recommend Dr. Scott as a doctor who really cares!
