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 still talk about Teter
I live in florida now but i still talk about dr teter. He had the absolute best sense of humor & I’ve never found another doctor that had better bedside manner. Truly a gem!

Dr Teter was my first on/gyn ever. Started seeing him right after I got married at 19. He’s an amazing dr treats you as family and always listens . He’s comforting and truly listens to you. Not may drs exist that you can feel love their job and want to help you. I’m now 52, and when he finally retires it will be hard to find someone to take over. So see him while you can..

Dr Teter has been my doctor for 30 years. He is a professional caring person. He has always been accessible for any questions and takes time to talk. He has treated myself and now my daughter. She also feels so comfortable with him and wishes he was still delivering babies! He’s the best! His nurses that have worked with him over the years have always been great too!

I have been a patient of Dr. Teter's for more than 20 years. He delivered my daughter. I adore him. It's strange, but I actually look forward to my GYN appointments because I enjoy catching up with him each time. And I ALWAYS feel like I am in the best possible hands in terms of care delivery.

Dr. Teter has been my doctor since 1985. He delivered our first child, performed my surgery to help us conceive our second child, helped me through a miscarriage of my third pregnancy, helped me navigate menopause, and continues to help me maintain my health in my post-menopausal time. I cannot give him enough praises for his care over the years. He truly cares about his patients’ overall health and well-being. He always takes as much time as you need in order to feel comfortable about your current situation and to understand your options. He is the BEST!!
