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.

Clean office environment. Very personable fellow, but sadly didn't listen well as evidenced by his post-visit summary wherein he stated, among other errors, my office visit was for a different extremity. Additionally, he told me someone would call me that very afternoon to schedule an appointment for further testing. FOURTEEN days later I received a voicemail letting me know they had gotten this test approved by my insurance provider and were ready to schedule my test! It is worth noting that after five days of not hearing from his office, I contacted another vascular surgeon and his office staff had my insurance provider's authorization, and testing scheduled BEFORE I left his office. Adventhealth should reconsider their relationship with him.

Excellent. He tells you “like it is” and gives you his opinion as well as other ways to analyze your problem. Talks a lot and gives relevant info-also listens. Wish I had seen him first before surgery I had for PAD. Works with patient in a partnership. Everyone may not relate well to him, but he’s my kind of doc.

This is a terrible doctor. Doesn't listen and is completely disrespectful. He is everything wrong with medical doctors in this country. Assembly line medicine at its best. Instead of trying to figure out why you feel as bad as you he completely discredits anything you say.

Dr. Armstrong tells you how it is. He is by far NOT rude, he simply cares about your health and well-being, and speaks the truth. We need more doctors like him; no cuddling the patient, but straight to the point and gives the full truth about one's condition. I definitely will be asking for him personally for myself or husband, if we ever have to return to the hospital.
