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 was taken to the emergency room after I had fallen and hit my head on the floor. I had a small cut above my right eye. After they had glued it together I was admitted to the hospital. I had a CT scan and it showed some old blood and some new blood on my brain. Dr. Carter ordered another Ct for the next morning. It was better and I was released from the hospital. He also reviewed my medication and he determined that I should not be taking one of them. He called me primary doctor and told her I needed to get off of them but I needed to be gradually taken off of them. He also called a neurosurgeon in Shreveport and made me an appointment for a follow up appointment. I came back to Bossier City that afternoon. I’m 79 years old and this was absolutely the best hospital visit I have ever had. All of the doctors and nurses were extremely good and I felt like they cared. I’m doing fine now and feeling much better since I no longer take the medication he warned me about.
