Dr. Johnson delivered both of my children and I would not have wanted anybody else. She’s the best.!

Review for Dr. Johnson

Such a good caring Doctor who takes the time for each patient and has the knowledge it takes to keep us at our optimum. Such a blessing to have her makes getting sick much easier.

Review for Dr. Abadilla

Excellent. He is caring, always smiling, has the best bedside manner of any physician I have seen in my 88 years. I would trust him with my life. He has been my attending physician for more than 20 years and as long as he is in practice in Hazard, I would t think of changing.

Review for Dr. Ratliff

Dr. Constantine is VERY thorough! He was able to find and treat conditions for me and my husband that no other doctor did. We were so very impressed with him and hate that Dr. Constantine is no longer in our area. We miss him so much.
