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.

Instant rapport
Dr Culberson’s engaging personality makes for not only a pleasant visit, but a more thorough and informative one. His willingness to spend the necessary time informing and explaining every aspect of an observation or diagnosis is a highly appreciated quality.

A doctor that understands what I say,and how I am.
He does not rush through his patients, his staff takes care of all the necessary pre stuff so he already knows what's wrong and has an idea for how to treat you.

I went to Dr. John Culberson on July 24th, 2020. I am 78 years old and I never have been treated with as much caring and professionalism as he showed me. Listening to each of my concerns and then covering each and everyone to my satisfaction. I would recommend him to anyone who is looking for an absolute outstanding physician.
