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.

Beware... this office is incompetent
I was a patient at Dr. Starbird's office for more then 15 years. I need only 1 prescription drug. It was time to reorder. My pharmacy had no record of Dr. Starbird's office calling in my prescription. Come to find out, Dr. Starbird or his staff called into the wrong pharmacy. A pharmacy that I haven't used in 12 years. Then when I get upset, I am the bad guy.

Dr. Starbird is a great doctor! He takes time with you and makes you feel like you are important. He takes wonderful care of our family! Our son has a TBI from an auto accident and I believe Dr. Starbird is his favorite doctor because he talks with him and doesn’t ignore him as many doctors have been known to do. I would highly recommend Dr. Starbird to anyone looking for a doctor who truly cares about his patients. If we need to see a specialist Dr. Starbird’s office finds the best doctors

Dr. Starbird is by far The Best doctor I have had in the last 35 years! He is caring, compassionate, and patient. His bedside manner, the time he takes to explain things to me so that I understand, mean so much to me. They are clean and concise and knowledgeable of medical information. He fits my criteria of what it means to be an outstanding doctor. He is determined and is willing to listen to me and work with me and be exactly what I need for my personal care and overall well being.
