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.

Great doctor!
Dr. Maier was able to diagnose my condition, which turned out to be the shingles virus, with just an exam. This was after I had been admitted to 2 different hospitals near my boyfriend's house during the previous week. They had no idea what was wrong with me as I was suffering from shooting pains in my right abdomen. One hospital did a CT Scan to check for appendicitis and the other an ultrasound scan to check my gallbladder. I left both times from the hospitals without a diagnosis, and still in a lot of pain. Once I returned home several days later and saw Dr. Maier, he knew exactly what was wrong and prescribed an anti viral medication to help fight the virus. I wish there were more doctors in the area like Dr. Maier.

My wife and I have been patients for several years. He listens and explains tests and procedures thoroughly. Although we have moved 60 miles away, the drive is well worth it. Staff are caring, efficient, and willing to go the extra mile. -Bill

Dr maier didnt not fill out my disability extention for out correctly, causing me to have to wait a month to get paid. I talk to disability insurance and they tell me he is signed up to do everything on there website rather then mail. He tellls me he does not do it. Because of that i have to wait a week to get another extension form mailed to me to have him fill out. Being his fault he says it will take him 3 days to fill out. Which would take him 5 minutes in reality. He really does not care.

I am shocked at some of the reviews. I have been going to Dr. Maier since the first of the year, and have found Dr. Maier and his Staff to be friendly, courteous, and always anxious to assist in any way. The Staff is one of the nicest group of ladies I have had the pleasure of meeting, and I intend to continue to recommend Dr. Maier and his office to anyone in need of a great Doctor.

Staff is rude and indifferent, had a blood test done for A1C to get insulin doctor never looked at the tests or did any follow up. I ended up in emergency room with phlebitis from the test and can't get past the screener at his office doctor doesn't write anything for pain according to the person at the front desk. Blood pressure meds he prescribed had all the side effects and again no follow up appt. to even see if they were working. Severe stomach pain now and little use of my left arm.

Although the doctor is very pleasant and easy to work with, his office staff is so terrible rude that I am compelled to warn others that they will be personally insulted and made to feel inconsequential every single encounter. The staff is VERY rude and cannot remember my name after giving it to them 3 times in one 5 minute phone call. They are snippy and will tell you that you they will not help you with very simple things. Don't expect a call back on any matter they promise.
