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.

Over Booked Appointments
I arrived 20 minutes early for a colonoscopy appointment that had been scheduled for almost 2 months. It was almost 2 hours after my scheduled appointment time before I saw Dr. Wooten. After an hour past my appointment time i inquired at the front desk if there had been an emergency that was causing a delay of my appointment and was advised he was running behind. It was clear that too many patients had been scheduled for the day.

Not great at all
At first he seemed to be okay, but when it came to follow up from the colonoscopy, I was unable to get in touch with him and his nurse was rude. It was like pulling teeth to get them to respond.

Uncaring
The least caring healthcare provider I have ever had. Do not expect to have a frank conversation about your medical condition because he really does not want to hear it.

I have received my last two colonoscopies from Dr. Wooten and found him and his staff to be very professional and knowledgeable in his areas of expertise. I've also seen him for some intestinal issues.

My husband and I have seen Dr. Wooten for the past few years. He is an excellent doctor and takes the time to ensure that you understand the procedure or the diagnosis. I would highly recommend him to everyone who are having issues with your stomach or liver.

Dr. Wooten is one of my favorite doctors. My daughter, husband and I both are his patients. She was ill for so long and he knew what was wrong and went to bat for her when other doctors disagreed with him. He is pleasant, upstanding doctor who you can trust with your health.
