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.

Doc Wilder is a rarity
Dr. Wilder is a very thorough and caring physician. He asks all the right questions and gets to the problem. He's friendly and has a wonderful bedside manner. It takes a lot to fill the shoes of Dr. Arthur Primeaux but I have to admit, Dr. Wilder is sure stepping in to them when I thought nobody could. I highly recommend him to young and old alike.

Dr. Wilder is amazing! He is a extremely Very down to earth Doctor. He listens and asks lots of questions to get to the bottom of your concerns. I hated when I had to change Dr.’s due to insurance issues.

I called Dr. Wilder because my insurance picked him as my PCP and I called for an appointment. Little did I know that he has to "approve" you as a patient before he takes you on as a patient and it could take up to a week. When I asked the receptionist why did he have to approve me, she was kind of snotty to me and really didn't have an answer. If he didn't want to take on new patients, that's all they needed to tell me.

No Thanks. – Jun 10, 2021

Dr. Wilder is such a thorough and caring physician. Exactly who I need to 'watch' my health. I'm very excited that he accepted me as a patient since I'm nearly 60 years old and my physician recently passed away. He is very intelligent and I love the fact that he takes time to listen and also to explain. I highly recommend Dr. Wilder if you need a really attentive physician in your life.

It is my personal opinion that Dr E. Wilder is an unordinary physician. I feel privileged to have been accepted as a patient. Firstly, from the minute he enters the exam room he knows who you are. He is cognizant of your history even when it is exasperatingly detailed. Dr Wilder’s presence is with his patient and not focused on a keyboard. Not only does he ask but he answers questions clearly. Not only is he knowledgeable he is also compassionate. There are times I feel not only have I had an appt with my Dr -but with a counselor or friend. I trust him, period. I have to say, also, his nurse (NP?) Angie is just as fabulous. She is always so helpful and thorough and kind. I would not choose another practice. All other nurses and office staff are exceptional as well. If you are considering this physician, look no further. As I stated in my first sentence... I find this practice to be UN-ordinary. Like none other

He seems to be a genuinely compassionate doctor, he's thorough and friendly. He inquires into your overall health, not just what you're there to see him for.
