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.

A caring professional Dr is rare.
I’ve used Dr Palmer for 20 years and even though I’ve moved out of the area last year, I still make the trip to see him. Caring, friendly, professional, great at explaining what treatments are needed.If I don’t like a Dr I’m out ASAP, but once I find a good Dr, I stay with them.

Great doctor
My whole family goes to Dr. Palmer. He is the most caring, concerned Dr I've ever been to. He treats his patients with respect, kindness and always listens I would definitely recommend him as a doctor. But he has a receptionist that could learn manners, kindness and respect to patients. I believe they need to move her to the back so she doesn't have to deal with the patients. Other than that, Dr. Palmer is a wonderful doctor!

I called in May to get an appointment with Dr. Palmer or nurse practioner. The office told me that Dr. Palmer would not see me and to quit calling because I was a former patient of another doctor. The doctor was suppose to be the former doctor . She inform me also because I had Medicaid with Medicare Advantage[United Healthcare} he does not take it. The reason very that was my Medicaid was for overages and co pays. It is not full medicaid. The office manager was not listening and got upset with me. By the way Dr. Palmer was recommended to me as I was a former patient. I would recommend Dr. Palmer to any one but not the office manager as she was very rude.

I have been going to Dr Palmer for 30 years. He is the kindest, gentlest man I know. He always takes time to talk to you about your family etc. Always so friendly. He takes real good care of my family. Listens to you about your medical problems. Explains your medical issues and the medication he is prescribing. You can always get an appointment when you need it. His staff is courteous. His office is always clean. Wait time is usually 30 to 45 minutes. I highly recommend Dr Palmer. He is the best

Dr. Palmer is an outstanding PCP. He and Reatha have provided great care for my family for years and we feel blessed to have him as our Primary care provider. He has referred me to specialist when needed, all with great results. I trust his judgement and consider him a very good friend as well.

Me and my husband love Dr. Palmer...he's a great doctor and really nice to his patients and he's smart enough to send you to a specialist when he doesn't have all the answers.
