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.

Rarely get regular prescriptions filled on time! I would not recommend him he disregards most of what you tell him he acts like he doesn’t want to be there or that you are just complaining! My family and I are switching family physicians as soon as possible. “ not reliable and acts as if he doesn’t care !

Great in the first few months. Then it becomes a battle to get refills on meds. Apparently allowing patients to go through withdrawals from meds is normal for Dr Brister. I think it's very irresponsible and harmful. Go to anyone but this guy! Staff follows his lead; office manager doesn't return calls.
