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.

Hey listens and explains everything and detail. Takes his time with you!

Dr. Winters was my doctor for 40 years. He was very good, blunt but good. He has retired now. No complaints.

Dr. Winters has been my doctor over 20 years. He always takes plenty of time and explains things well. One thing I have always appreciated is if there is a problem and I have choices, he tells me what they are. If not, he lets you know that right away. When I need a referral, he sends me to the best. He makes sure I am up to date with any tests or shots I need. Never a problem scheduling. And it’s nice knowing his family is very important to him. He keeps current pictures around. He used to go to Africa every Christmas to offer medical care, and not a lot of doctors do that. He’s the best.

He's been my doctor for over thirty years, even though he's not very close to my work. Dr. Winters is an excellent doctor with a no-nonsense attitude, tons of medical knowledge and enough time spent as a volunteer doctor in Africa to really put health issues into proper perspective. He always listens closely and has a pretty good idea of what needs further discussion or investigation due to his experience and knowledge. Not sure if he's taking new patients but if so, I highly recommend him. On the other hand, if you value your doctor's ability to protect your feelings more than your doctor's ability to protect your health, you may want to look elsewhere. He's never been less than friendly to me but he has a direct, no-nonsense, to the point manner which apparently rubs some people the wrong way. Personally I like it and enjoy running into him outside the office - he's a great guy and a great doctor. I don't mind waiting, he always gives me whatever time I need without rushing.

This dr was on call when I called in concerned over accidentally taking 2 blood pressure pills. He laughed and said “well, it’s too late to vomit them now. You did it to yourself.” He went on to tell me I could definitely die. He was very rude and obviously ignorant as well. The ER dr confirmed his ignorance. I would NEVER recommend him

- bedside manners, time spent, or appropriate follow up are below par - does not remember your specific complaints & ailments are or what your medical history looks like - just focused on entering an extensive list of questions and responses into his PC - office problems: incorrect allocation of ‘reason for visit’, incorrect billing, not returning phone calls - problems with records: nurses are allowed to update and alter patient files without supervision or an appropriate verification/approval

I have been a patient of Dr. Winters since around 1997-2001. He is upfront with me and straight forward. I am very confident in his treatment of everything he treats and his recommendations on health care. James Michael Carter (Mike)
