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.

Dr. Overholt is very thorough, knowledgeable, and personable.

Dr. Overholt is very caring and attentive. After a thorough exam, he correctly diagnosed my problem and recommended a non-invasive treatment that solved the issue. One of the tests he ordered revealed an issue unrelated to my complaint. Dr. Overholt asked to see me in person to review the results and recommended a consultation with another doctor. I truly appreciated the time he took with me and his genuine concern for my well being.

Dr. S. Mark Overholt is an excellent surgeon! He explained my surgery very clearly to me, and answered all my questions. I knew what to expect for both the surgery and the recovery. He also has a very pleasant "bed-side" manner. He is relaxed but enthusiastic, and very personable. Dr. Overholt came highly recommended to me, and I in turn would highly recommend him to colleagues, friends and family.

I had an occasion to see him because I had a horrible attack of vertigo. I didn't know what to do as the whole world was spinning and I could hardly walk. It was horrible. He knew exactly what as wrong and how to fix it. He put me on a table and manipulated my body and my head different ways. He said the crystals in my ears were messed up and the manipulations would get them back where they needed to be. Two treatments was needed but he fixed me right up.
