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 accompanied my father to his appointment with Dr. Powers, whom he was seeing for a second opinion. I left the office feeling comfortable and confident in Dr.Powers diagnosis and forward care plan. He took his time to explain the reasoning behind diagnosis and prognosis which helped relieve anxiety I had been having. While I am a Charleston resident, my father is not but will be traveling up to continue care with Dr.Powers. Thank you!
