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.

My favorite doctor
Dr. Adams has been my doctor for over 20 years. He cares about his patients and takes all the time you need to get answers.When he moved I did not know what to expect. The staff are great and SIHF is pretty remarkable. They are definitely a one stop shop.

Found a good one.
I find he is late to some appointments because he takes his read from the patient. If he can help he takes his time. If he can’t he will send you to who can.If the problem is out of his experience he is always quick with a specialist who will help.Had a doctor who only wanted to prescribe opiates for my back and after 20 years of pain, he is the reason we found out what was wrong and i am great full. Will stay with him and follow him. The office staff are crabby, that I will give you.

Highly Recommended
I have been a patient of Dr. Adams for close to 5 years and have no complaints. Yes, there are wait times that go beyond 30 minutes at times, however, Dr Adams has a great bed-side manner (exam table). He always listens to my questions and provides great feedback. Very professional.

I made an appointment with him because my insurance said he was accepting new pts. The appointment was confirmed 3 times. the evening before the appt. they called to cancel because he doesn't take new pts. I can't change my PCP until the first of the month. I am now with out a dr.. Needless to say his office is a disaster. Zero stars are not an option or I would have given that rating.

I asked the nurse if the dr. could come see his patient in the hospital today for a bit, and I was told he doesn't go to the hospital to see his patients.

Wait time is horrible. Quickest I've ever got in was about 45 minutes and the longest was over 2 hours not counting the times he no showed me. He a little pretentious and has no care about the patient. Get them in and out. I won't be back, and I've been going there for over 3 years. If I could give a half star I would. Most of the staff is OK, but some are VERY RUDE. It's like your doing them a favor for going there. He doesn't listen to what's wrong with you and maybe spends 5 minutes with you

Dr. Adams has been taking care of myself and my husband for nearly 25 years. I adore him and his bedside manner. Most doctors are right to the point the minute they come through the door, with a " what numbers Next" attitude. Not Dr. Adams. He always has a smile and a joke or something witty to say, which always helps break the ice. Beyond that,he is very thourogh about getting to the reason you are there and what can be done to make you feel better. I feel like a person, not just a patient.
