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.

Most of the time you wont see Dr. Waits youll see a nurse practioner.

This guy here is FANTASTIC. He is another Dr. that does absolutely everything in his power to find the answer or solution to your issue. If he doesn't know, he finds it. If that doesn't work, he keeps going. He spends a fantastic amount of time with us every time, answers all questions and if we want to see only him every time we go, when we set our appointment, we make sure to tell them. If he happens to not be available, his other Dr.'s are just as qualified and wonderful.

They are building a business not a practice. Lack of treatment, doesn't follow up unless you come in, unnecessary office visits (things could be done in single visit), never able to see the same Dr, to busy politicking. Should effectively treat patients instead of driving them through like livestock. Front desk says you can only get test results if you make an appointment. It not just this Dr it's all in this practice. Appears to be management and policy related.
