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 cannot say enough about Dr. Carothers. I was looking for a Doctor that would actually listen to me and work to help me. His care is excellent. He will take the time to actually see what is going on with you and what's the best options are. You can tell he truly cares.

Thursday was my first visit to Dr. Carothers and it was excellent. I was impressed by his friendly and cordial bedside manner. I did not feel rushed. He was recommended by another doctor and he did not disappoint. I needed a PCP and he was my great find. The nurse was very friendly and professional.

Dr. Carothers AND his staff are very professional, respectful and discreet. But they are on the same time honestly caring and listen to any problem you have. I recommend this Family Clinic to young and old, they can handle it.

I cannot say enough about Dr. Carothers. I have searched for a long time for a Doctor that would actually listen to me and work to help me. His bedside manner is exceptional. He will take the time to actually see what is going on with you and what the best options are. You can tell he truly cares about his patients. I have referred a few friends to his practice and they are completely satisfied with his service. I am so thankful for Dr. Carothers and his office. They are GREAT!!!!!!

Dr. Carothers has a very warm bedside manner. He is thorough and takes time to listen to my concerns. I moved several times while he was my doctor, and I am willing to travel any distance to see him. Office staff is very sweet, and they treat me with compassion, even when I am being difficult. I always leave the office with a smile, and trust them fully. Dr. Carothers is the best doctor I have ever met, and stays abreast on all phases of my healthcare.

Dr. Carothers does like most doctor's do when they can't pinpoint a particular problem, they insult the patient's intelligence by telling them their problem is only stress and/or anxiety. After having a host of symptoms for over a month, this doctor didn't give me one blood test. I complained of chest pains, he offered no x-rays. He was basically unconcerned and even chuckled when I told him I've had a low-grade fever for months. The appt. was a waste of time and money.
