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.

Let his religion get in the way of healing
Found myself in trouble in an almost deadly marriage which I was trying to escape. I don’t even know why I was made to undress and submit to an exam when I had never met him before and could have waited a few days for my regular doctor. At the point where most doctors would attempt to discuss options or offer to call women’s crisis to get a woman into a safer situation, this man left the room in a huff and didn’t come back leaving me confused and still needing help.

Dr Battey is a wonderful, capable and definitely qualified Dr. I have had 2 surgeries that he performed, and I have absolutely no complaints. He is warm, kind, asks questions and listens to my every concern. I wouldn't know what happened with the one person that left a horrible review on here, but there are two sides to every story. Personally speaking, I would highly recommend Dr Battey to anyone who is looking for a new gynecologist. You won't be disappointed.

He is a wonderful doctor. I trust him with my health and the birth of my children. He always went above and beyond, for any of my worries.

He butcherd my mother and left her on a wound vacc for 3 months, decaying from the inside out. 10/10 DO NOT RECOMMEND. The inappropriate behavior that was reported from previous patients should have been enough cause to NOT HIRE HIM. This is on multiple accounts, not just one time when you'd think someone would learn something. It is a disgusting waste of space. Sincerely, One Angry Daughter.

I’ve been seeing Dr Battey in Gold Beach for a while. He is always ready to listen and offer suggestions. After surgery, he called me several times to follow up and check my progress since I had many complications. He is wonderful.

It was hard for me to go to a new gynecologist after 20 or so years with Nurse Practitioner Paula Daystar in Medford. However, I do like Dr. Battey. Haven't had any illnesses or pregnancies with him, but have had exams with him for about three years. Since I've retired, it's nice to have a doctor in GP.
