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.

5 star doctor
Dr Korley is very smart, even by doctor standards. Very well read in the medical literature. Always polite. Very thorough. Always orders blood work for my biannual visits. Always goes over my blood work, explaining any abnormal results and telling me if it’s a “big deal” or “not a big deal.” Dr Korley always asks me if I have any questions, always asks me if there is anything else that I want to go over and he always listens to me. I am very happy that Dr Korley is my primary care physician.

If you can get to Dr. Korley, he is a lovely caring doctor. His front staff is pleasant but useless. I’ve called 4 times with an issue and left messages that went unanswered. I was also locked out of the patient portal. There is no good way to access the doctor. I had to eventually go to urgent care because of lack of communication. He never used to have this issue. It isn’t him, it is his staff. If I were just rating him, I would give him 5 stars.

Dr. Korley is a rare gem! He listens, truly listens to his patients and responds with thorough explanations. Due to his commitment to listening, he is able to identify that which numerous others have missed - possibly due to the volume of patients they treat. Kind, patient, thorough, and stays current with medical breakthroughs. He is not allowed to retire until I am gone:)

Dr Korley has been my doctor for about 15 years and I couldn’t ask for a better doctor! He has helped me through some of the hardest times in my life, not only medically but emotionally! I highly recommend Dr Korley to everyone, I consider myself very fortunate to have found him when I did.

I have been a patient of Dr. Korley for many years and have always known that he always has my concerns and health needs were addressed. He and his staff are excellent and if there's any mishaps he personally addresses them. Would recommend to anyone, including my family, friends, colleagues.

I selected Dr. Korley based on his credentials. Very seldom get to see him and have had to endure significant.difficulties medically due to too many other doctors involved with poor medical skills.

Called to schedule an appointment for a routine physical. Found that I need to have two appointments with the first being an audition for a physical. I'm not a fan of insurance companies and understand how they beat down physician's costs to maximize their profits but is double billing and wasting my time the answer? If I'm having open heart surgery, let's approach it carefully but a physical? I used to have them in high school for free in 10 minutes and now I have to enroll in a program.
