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 Turner is one of the best Doctors I have had he has time to set down and talk to his Patients and he tell you everything that you should know I would highly recommended anyone to him he the best Doctor to have.

Doctor Turner is a doctor who takes his time with each and every one of his patients. He cares, he's thorough, he doesn't rush you. Everyone complains about the wait time but I for one would rather wait on a good Dr. Who genuinely cares for you, than to get in and out quickly and risk them missing some minor detail that could be fatal. I have been seeing this doctor for at least 5 years and will continue to see him.

dr. Turner is a good doctor takes time with you and that is why his office wait is so long. the problem is I can no longer get treatment because they no longer accept Medicaid. I have been there for years and now can no longer continue my treatment with my doctor and have to find somebody that may not be the same. I would recommend because of the long wait to go elsewhere unless you don't mind waiting he is a good doctor. But the staff and the office inner workings are not completely competent.
