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.

He SAVED MY LIFE 20 yrs ago. Forever thankful!!!!!
Dr. Chris Cate saved my life performing a complex and delicate emergency surgery (Crohn’s Disease bowel resection). No mistakes can be made with this surgery. I was just 22 yrs old and on the verge of sepsis and death. A week prior, my GI doc unfortunately missed the signs of a perforated colon and I was soon rushed to the ER in agonizing pain. Two weeks later and after many painful diagnostic tests that showed nothing, I had to have emergency + exploratory surgery. My first time to meet Dr. Cate was just hours before my emergency surgery. He was calm, reassuring, listened, and truly cared. His skill no doubt saved my young life.I’m now 44, a wife and proud mother to an amazing daughter. All of which would not be possible without Dr. Cate. I would travel the world to have Dr. Chris Cate as my surgeon again, if I ever need. Do not hesitate to have him as your doctor or surgeon. I’m living proof that he is skilled, kind, and above all cares. He literally save my life.

At 91 y/o, my father had a parathyroid adenoma. We were referred to Dr. Chris Cate. Prior to surgery, Dr. Cate took every precaution to insure my father was medical sound to tolerate the procedure. Prior to surgery he prayed with us & was genuine with concern for my father during recovery & aftercare. My father had no complications & I attribute this to Dr. Cate. I'm a Family Nurse Practitioner & I refer patients to him without hesitation or reservation.
