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.

We are working on my left shoulder now. I won't go to any other shoulder specialist. And I've gone threw few.

Highly Recommend
Dr. Abeler was professional, knowledgeable, courteous and discussed resolution to the issue I have, immediate and future. Hope to feel 'more better' soon! His staff was just as awesome, appointment was in Russellville and my apprehension level decreased with each staff member I came in contact with.

Excellent Visit
Dr. Abeler is one of my favorite physicians. He has an excellent 'bedside manner'. He takes time to listen and understand the issue and then presents options very clearly. He drained a cyst on my hand today and it was much less painful than I expected.
