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.

Wonderful bedside manner. Takes the wellness of his patients very seriously. Have had Dr. Butler for my heart problems for 20 years. I attribute my current wellness to his good care. Will miss him in his retirement. William J. Douglas

He has been my cardiologist for over 20 years. His treatments have always focused on what I want, and the trade-offs that I want to make for the quality of life I desire. He has always treats me with respect, compassion, and (unlike many doctors with elderly patients) speaks to me and not at me. His care and surgical skill have been top-notch in every way.

In the past 3 years I have had 3 stents placed in my heart all by Dr. Butler. He is the greatest! He found problems that did not show up on other tests and his service to his patients are beyond exceptional. Great bed-side manner, makes you feel comfortable. His entire staff at LPG are the best.
