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. Bolster has benn my husband's and and I Primary Care provider fir almost 20 years. He takes his time with his patients, doesn't overlook appointments and provides care beyond your visit. He personally responded to an after hours call fom us when we received news and confirmation of my husband's my lung Cancer. This was during a Hurricane Evacuation. He has never steered us wrong when providing referrals. The staff knows everyone by name. We've never waited more than 15 minutes tops to be called in for our appointment. His staff and nurses have always been accommodating, cheerful and courteous. He has seen both my husband and through medical and surgical issues and follows through on anything he discusses with you during your visit. He follows through on your care that he may need to refer you to a specialist for. I can't praise him and staff enough. I can't imagine ever having to change doctors... if it does happen, it will be a sad day9.

I've been with Dr Bolster ever since I've moved here which is almost 15 years. He will find the answer to your ailments or bring other professionals in. He and his office are the most sincere group I have to go to and unfortunately that's a lot.
