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 Cromwell has been my and my husbands doctor for many years and he was my parents doctor as well. He is wonderful, caring, through and listens well. He doesn't burden you with unnecessary tests and procedures. What a fine man and doctor! I recommend him whole heartedly.

Great Doctor, tells it straight.
Dr Cromwell has always listened to me and I have felt included in my health decisions. Super nice guy. Not afraid to go directly at something in order to take care or me. I’ve always liked his direct approach, just telling me like it is but at the same time being very encouraging. Will recommend him every time.

I think he’s great!
I’ve been seeing Dr. Cromwell for over 10 years and he’s always been both attentive and kind. I take good care of my health, but am a huge worrier, which he’s helped a lot with. He listens, takes my feelings and fears into consideration, runs tests when appropriate to relieve my concerns, and never over prescribe. That’s all I need in good PCP. His staff has also been kind.

Dr. Cromwell is a good doctor with excellent rapport. He read my test results and messaged me at 9:45pm to give good news. I trust and value his opinion. You usually do not reach a live person when you call his office but I’ve always had a return call and his app for the office is great.

I am a younger female with severe depression and anxiety. I called dr Cromwell in tears ready to end my life. I called and got voicemail but never once got a call back. I’m thankful to still be here! I called back a couple months later because I needed a check up and same thing. Left voicemail and been about 4 months and never got a call back. If you can’t answer for your patients then why have a practice? I think he is not a doc but a crock. If you have a serious condition I don’t recommend him

Dr Cromwell is a quitter. He twice gave us bad advice regarding a life threatening allergy condition which was clearly beyond his knowledge, expertise and experience. Failed to return multiple calls. His staff was rude and dismissive. Inattentive to our needs. Rude examination room manner. Dismissed my wife's visible allergic anaphylactic shock reactions by prescribing Xanax and recommending a psyche evaluation. Then removed himself from caring for my wife. What a fraud!
