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 absolutely trust Dr Dale’s medical advice and depend upon him to recommend any doctor that I might need for my medical care. Lynne Kerling

Best physician - so grateful I was referred to him
Dr. Dale was personable and kind, very thorough and focused on getting me an accurate diagnosis and treatment. He spent over one hour with me. He is very impressive, down-to-earth, and smart. I recommend him with no reservations. 5/5!

Awesome Doctor , Professional yet down to earth!
Seen Dr Dale cuz my Dr was out. He went over my current conditions and took his time with me and explained everything very clearly and in a way that I could understand . He also helped me with an issue that had nothing to do with my current issues and gave me a referral for a cyst in my chest that we’ve been monitoring for about a year or so now. Easy to talk to and very concerned yet down to earth and humorous when he needs to be which I like because it makes the visit a lot easier and less stressful! Also while he’s explaining showing visuals to me on the computer, which is helpful because “ I’m not a Dr.”! Thanks Dr D and hope to see you again in the future!!

Dr Dale spent the time to review my condition with me and make recommendations. He coordinated with my cardiologist.

Most thorough doctor…takes time to listen and does an excellent job with explanation of test results and proposed treatment plan. Meticulously reviews past medical history for correlation with current problems.

In Oct 2015, I had 3 pulmonary embolisms & pnemonia in my right lung discovered when I went to the hospital 5 days postpartum. I was so lucky to get Dr. Dale as my pulmonologist that day. He made sure that I & my family understood what was going on, walked up through verbally what he was seeing, then pulled up my xrays and scans as well as what a normal lung looks like. He was very concerned about my overall care and doing more than I should (he put me on complete bed rest), but he did it in a very compassionate way. He also made sure to take into my considerations for my concerns about the medications I would be on (breastfeeding for my new son since my milk had come in the day I went into the hosptial and I wanted to continue to breastfeed after I was released). My follow up appointments were the same type of care as I was given in the hospital. Friendly, kind, compassionate, extremely knowledgable. I refer everyone I know. He made sure I always understoond completely.

Dr. Dale diagnosed my sarcoma, guided the surgery and I am in full recovery one year later. I would recommend anytime and to anyone who wants the very best care. I am alive when i had been given a 20 percent survival chance, initially. The best!

Dr Dale exemplifies the excellence you would hope to have in all physicians. I had a sudden, very critical health care crisis and his office fit me in immediately. I am a new patient to him. He observed a lot of symptoms while we were talking and made sure he covered everything completely. He continued to order tests that other doctors should have been ordering until we finally reached all diagnoses, which were many, so that I could move forward and start treatment. I feel that he saved my life.
