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.

Can not be Trusted to Follow Through
This is the most backwards ran office I've ever encountered. I called 4 times to request a referral be called into my insurance. I supplied all the information to them to make it as easy as possible and was kind and understanding each time I called even though they had no record of the previous calls, and I was getting increasingly annoyed. Each time I was told they would call it in for me. The receiving Dr. never received it so I contacted the insurance company to confirm, and there were never any referrals sent over for me. I ended up having to pay out of pocket for the necessary yearly screening because Dr. Sears office could handle calling in a referral, or even at the very least LET ME KNOW THEY WERENT GOING TO DO IT. Waste of my time and money on an insurance benefit I should be eligible for. I'm not sure if they don't care, or if the people running the office are incompetent, but either way, I won't be trusting them with my wellbeing and health.

Best Doctors in town
I gave been a patient with this clinic since I was a child. Both Sears' are very knowledgeable, compassionate, and have great bedside manner. They listen to your concerns and don't just address one ailment or concern but try to make sure everything is addressed. Dr. H is an amazing addition just as caring, compassionate, and knowledgeable.

OUTSTANDING DOCTOR SEARS
Dr. Sears is incredibly kind, patient, and skilled. His expertise is amazing, he's a true witness for The Lord, and he has the right procedures to effect healing. He's probably the best doctor we've ever contacted, and and we admire him and his practice immensely.

First, Christy the PA is incompetent. Then they have the nerve to charge $50 for copies of your medical records. That is absurd and unethical.
