I feel lucky to have Dr. Houghton as my PCP. He is caring, thorough and listens to what I tell him.

Dr. Houghton and his PA Jessica and his staff are all excellent. I have always received excellent care and patience from their office. I highly recommend them.

I have been seeing Dr Houghton for a little over a year, after relocating to SD. At the beginning his office staff was going through some changes, but my experience with him has always been excellent. He is professional, caring and truly collaborates with me as a patient to assist me reach my health goals while addressing my concerns. Dr. Houghton is one of the best doctors I have the pleasure to be treated by. I truly trust his clinical judgment and feel heard and cared for. His bedside manner is excellent and the way he relates to me as a patient is something it’s rarely experienced in today’s bottom line, business medical settings.I highly recommend him!

Dr Houghton and staff are very detail oriented, compassionate, and experienced. They’ve helped me overcome many challenges with confidence. Can’t recommend then enough!!

Dr. Houghton is genuinely interested in my best health.

I’m a relatively new patient to this practice and I have had nothing but issues that I have previously let slide. The office staff is probably the most incompetent group of individuals I have ever had to deal with. They called me the day of my appointment to reschedule from a Tuesday to a Thursday at same time of the same week, no problem. Then about an hour later I get another call telling me that they need to reschedule my upcoming appointment. I told them that it was already taken care of earlier and that I had a new appointment already rescheduled. They could not confirm my rescheduled appointment as apparently the previous person did not in fact schedule me correctly, and wanted me to push out my appointment for blood work for another week. Aside from constantly canceling appointments, the medical assistant sent a completely different medication to my pharmacy to be filled and it was like an act of congress to get it corrected after multiple attempts to reach the doctor’s office.

I've had a number of doctors in my life and I've been seeing Dr Houghton for about 4 years now. If you're looking for a doctor you wouldn't be able to find better. I've never had someone care so much about my individual health then he does. He's a kind of doctor that you actually make an appointment looking forward to seeing. All you have to do is see him for the first time and you not only have great doctor, but you have a new friend.

I wish I could give zero stars to this establishment. My husband made an appointment there because he needed a physical and certain shots in order to file paperwork regarding his permanent residency. He went, had the flu shot etc, and paid the $120. After the appointment, he was told to wait a few days for the results, and to come back and at that time, the doctor would fill out the forms required. My husband went back a few days later, only to be told the doctor wasn't there, and to come back t
