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.

has the rep of having the l nurse around
Dr. does not do what he states... and charges insurance additional fees even when you never see him. Don't trust his nurse to follow up and do anything that the Dr said that she will have her do. Was reading and found out that his nurse he has now has a bad rep with other offices, hospital, and other patients of not following through and doing her job.

Longest wait time of any doctor I have been to in 70 years. I will not be back. Did not warn me of possible side effects of second pneumonia innoculation which put me in the bed for 3 days.

Hubby and I recently retired and moved to the area to be with our kids. Not knowing any doctors here, we feel very fortunate to have found Internal Medicine Associates, especially Dr. Gunter and NP Ashley Blair. They are kind, thorough and professional, and go out of their way to make you feel comfortable. Both Ashley and Dr. Gunter take time to answer all of your questions and address all your concerns. I highly recommend Dr. Gunter and his team to anyone in need of excellent medical care.
