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.

Uncaring and Honestly Just Not A Good Doctor
I was told to go to Dr. Gentry for help with my ADHD that was previously diagnosed by another doctor in this same office. Long story short, I saw his nurse for 5 minutes, his medical student for 10 and then Gentry himself for 2. He did not ask my any questions, he just came in with a plan that wasn't even a right fit for me. The medication he wanted me to try was not for ADHD and would go against what another medication I take helps with. It just showed me he didn't even look at my file to see if this medication would have any complications with any of my current meds.I used their online portal to try and talk with him or see if there was another option... over two months I got LITERALLY NO RESPONSE FROM HIM. He called once, I called back. After that, crickets. Really made me feel unimportant and looked-over.I do not recommend this office in general, but especially this doctor. Even more so if you are a female.

Dr. Gentry could be a counselor! My whole family goes to him and we all feel like we can talk to him about everything. He is very knowledgeable and is always willing to find us the right answer. We would recommend him to anyone!!
