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.

Outstanding Doctor

Caring and Professional
I haven’t seen Dr. Ball in a few years. She kind of scares me, lol. But she won’t lie to you, and I believe she truly wants the best for her patients. Make an appointment with her! She’s knowledgeable, and you won’t regret it!!

I completely trust Dr. Ball with any health concern I may have. She has been my Internist since she came to Willis Knighton. She’s through and explains any issues you may have concerns about. She is very knowledgeable regarding medications. I have no complaints.

NM
Dr Ball was very thourough. She took her time and It was a very good visit. But the hospital must have destroyedrecords because she had to go back and enter in all my dr records. But we went through everything as best we could. Why did the hospital do this? It shows no record of my past health. That doesn’t make sense. Why would the hospital do that? My doctors cannot get a clear picture easily.of their Patient now. Bc their history is gone.

A fabulous doctor!
I have been seeing Dr. Sally Ball now for 7 months. I have benefitted by her care a lot in this short period of time. She is direct and to the point but also kind and supportive. She LISTENS. I have been quite overweight my entire adult life. First Dr. Ball told me in no uncertain terms that I had to lose some weight to achieve health. She wasn’t being mean; it was factual. Then she recommended a book, Beck’s Weight Loss Solution. It is written by a psychologist who helps you identify and correct emotional eating. While I went through this workbook, I started on her “Dr. Ball’s Healthy Living” plan. It is a do -and-don’t list of foods and lifestyle instructions. IT IS GENIUS! And so is she. I recommend this doctor hands down. I’d give her 50 stars if that rating was available!

Annual physical exam
Friendly staff, clean environment. Wait time is about 30 min. Dr Ball is friendly & asks questions about health concerns, reviews lab results, recommends dietary changes, reviews current meds, recommends vaccines or discusses vaccines not necessary. Efficient & thorough. Would recommend & have recommended Dr Ball to family & friends.
