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.

Dr. Porter performed an ablation on me May 20, 2021 at Silver Cross. The result was exceptionally good. The AFib is gone and my energy level is returning to normal day by day. I would strongly recommend placing your trust in his skills. You won't find a more caring physician to handle your needs.

Dr. Porter is knowledgeable, thorough and explains everything in a manner that is comforting and easily understandable. I was in pretty bad shape when I met him and he basically saved my life. I was under his care for 4 years and received optimal attention and care. Him and his staff were available to answer any questions I had any time of day and regularly checked up on me. He performed 2 ablations, did an ICD placement and an ICD battery replacement on me and every procedure was successful without any issues. I highly recommend him to anyone with cardiac needs.

I had a second opinion done with Dr. Porter. I would highly recommend Dr. Porter to my friends and family. Why? he presented me with options, was a "thinking persons" doctor and open to suggestions and ideas and willing to discuss. I felt that with Dr. Porter we were going to work towards the best solution for my health. Thanks Dr. Porter...I wish you a successful and happy future. Rich B.

He was one of the most caring physicians I have ever seen. His care in the hospital before and after surgery was unbelievable. I will travel from Nebraska to Denver to continue my care because of his excellent treatment to me and my family.
