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.

Best PCP
I’ve been a patient of Dr Sanders for 6 years now. After a sudden mystery illness, he took me as a consult with his NP early one morning before his practice opened because he already had a full schedule. He is patient and really listens and cares. His empathy is unmatched. Understandably, he moved to a concierge model to be able to spend more one-on-one time with patients instead of shuffling through them like cattle (my words, not his). He is prompt and thorough. I’ve contacted him on many occasions after hours via text or call and he is always kind and quick to respond. I would also follow him to the moon as another patient wrote.

Left all his patients hanging! Poor character!
Dr Sanders left for a more lucrative practice and abandoned his patients to find a new doctor. TriStar staff was unwilling to help and in general were rude and dismissive. Dr Sanders had committed to transfer our records to another doctor in his office but did not follow through. Appointments that had been made were not honored and no notice was given. Dr Sanders has not shown any concern for former patients, he fired them!

The staff was pleasant and professional. With Covid-19 at the forefront, I felt comfortable and safe during my wellness visit last week. The safety protocols in place far exceeded my expectations. I would highly recommend Doctor Sanders, his professionalism, and communication skills are right on point.

I have been seeing Dr. Sanders for years and he has always treated me with kindness, professionalism, and competence. He listens and spends. As much time as necessary to resolve any concerns. He has a wonderful staff and I am always seen promptly. His nurse practitioner Alyssa is a jewel and also takes wonderful care of me.
