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.
Excellent service in Lakeview ER.

Dr. Benton treated my husband in the ER at Lakeview Hospital. He took the time to talk to me explaining my husband’s condition and helping me to understand everything. I was able to ask any questions that I had. He was very thorough, compassionate and understanding.

I went into the emergency room and never had a great experience like I did on 3/13/2017. It did take a while for me to be seen from the emergency room, but once I got past the waiting room Dr. Benton was perfect. He was very patient and personable with me. He went above and beyond explained everything that needed to be done and he did it quickly. I would recommend anyone to him. He gives doctors a great name. I normally never write reviews, but that is how satisfied I was with my visit.

What can I say this doctor is nothing but the best. I have never had such an amazing ER dr as him. He took care of my sweet little girl. He made sure we were satisfied and above and beyond. I would love for him to have a private practice.

Dr. Benton is by far the best doctor I have ever seen. He was able to correctly identify my injury and get me on a correct path.
I wish he had a private practice because I would be a patient for sure.
Excellent doctor, skilled and mannered.

Dr. Benton was extremely thorough in addressing my emergency health issue. I was frightened and very nervous but Dr. Benton put me at ease; he answered all of my health questions and I was able to relax. He came into the room frequently to check on my recovery. I felt so much better knowing that I was under the care of this dedicated and skilled individual.
