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.

I love Dr Priest! He has been my primary care physician for over 10 years and I would highly recommend him to anyone who is looking for an excellent doctor. He is always highly attentive, very thorough, and even though I talk a lot, and I do mean a lot, he has never once interrupted me! He obviously knows his business and my family and I hold him and his staff in the highest regard.

Worst office I've ever been to-EVER! Staff does not help at all. I called office several times and was never called back. Finally I got ahold of her after 2 weeks and she said she hadn't found out about my meds so she hadn't called me back! After I finally was able to obtain my meds - by myself with no help from them at all-Had Dr. Priest give me my injection and asked him a question and he said "They told me you were just here for a shot-no questions". I wanted to ask about a DexaScan which was why I was taking the meds. Totally appropriate question. Changed doctors immediately-My new doctor - who is excellent said to call Dr. Priest's office and have them send over my records as it's the same medical group and she refused. Said I'd have to go back to my new Dr. and fill out a form! Unbelievable! I'd give this office Zero stars if I could!

Dr Priest should not be practicing medicine. I will be filing a complaint to the medical board regarding serious negligence in follow up care for my elderly father. My father had severe diarrhea for months, and ended up in the ER with Colitis and small bowel obstruction. He quite literally could have had the intestines breach and gotten sepsis had I not rushed him to the hospital TWICE. Despite direction from the hospital that my father receive GI follow up care, Dr. Priest "forgot" to refer him and instead kept prescribing meds to treat symptoms instead of the life threatening underlying problem.

As a new patient I called to make an appointment to be seen due to a severe pain in my ankle that may have been caused by an ankle roll or gout. The soonest they were going to make an appointment for me was almost a month from today. They would not accept a walk-in or any earlier appointments. This is ridiculous and unacceptable. To make matters worse the office assistant was rude. As far as customer service is concerned I would score them at a 0 if possible.
