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.

I had been dealing with GI issues for over a year, increasing with episodes and pain leading up to my referral to Dr Matlock February 2013. He was/is one of a handful of providers who took earnest time to evaluate my situation. I have been a patient of his since. He continues to be honest with me about the circumstances around my unique condition (no fix, but symptoms can be managed)and providing honest empathetic care. I am beyond grateful

I highly recommend Dr. Matlock. He took the time to listen and cared about my problems. He was the first Doctor in 20 months that found my intestinal problems. He ordered the proper tests to find my problem. He made me feel that my concerns mattered and he was going to help me. Thank You Dr. Matlock.

A colonoscopy is supposed to be one of the things in life that gives a person some piece of mind. Unfortunately, my latest colonoscopy was the worst experience of my life. I have had a colonoscopy before so I knew what to expect. Some unpleasant prep work followed by some mild discomfort. I got through the prep work with no problem but the actual procedure resulted in excruciating pain. I did not feel completely sedated.
