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.

Competent, caring, compassionate, attentive, lovin
Dr. Cook has saved my life at least twice since 2009 & has followed me thru both crises & intermittent care episodes since. Has the highest regard, respect, care & love for his patients & will go the last mile of the way to assure his patients receive the highest level of care sacrificing his own personal plans if needed to provide the care needed. His person/patient centered care approach is also demonstrated by his Nurse Practioner Angie Stinson, other care team members & administrative staff in both his outpatient & surgery center. This is due to his expectations that his staff also provide the best of care & attention possible. Dr Cook’s professionalism & ethical practice includes his networking & collaboration with a wide range of other medical speciality care providers who may be needed to help with the evaluations & treatments of his patients. He quickly calls in other medical staff to help with expertise & decision making to assure the best of medical care for his patient

Dr Cook has been treating me for Celiac disease and other issues for years. He and is staff are very compassionate and caring. Even after moving out of state for 10 yrs I always drove back for my appointments. I could not ask for a better doctor for my issues.

Dr cook found cancer in my colon 6 years ago, I've never had a doctor so compassionate over my well being,he was visibility upset when he told me I had cancer,I consider him a friend. Sometimes I hear people in his waiting room complaining about how long they've been waiting, (Usually 20-30 minutes), I tell them "he's worth the wait,he saved my life!" I spend time with my family(and 3 grandkids) and I'm thankful.
