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.

Caring, wonderful, genuine, patient doctor!
I’ve been seeing Dr. Martin since I was pregnant with my first child back in 2018. He’s truly a wonderful doctor and I couldn’t imagine having anyone else as my doctor. My husband loves him as much as I do. Baby number two came early so Dr. Pinkard delivered her and was equally fantastic. Their nurses get back to me quickly and are so very caring.

Wonderful Doctor
Dr. Martin asks questions and wants to know about you! Genuinely concerned. He is knowledgeable and wants to do the best he can for you. Great sense of humor! He was very easy to talk too!

I would give this dr. 0 stars if I could. He was pushy, manipulative, and rude. I had a traumatic birth because of him.

I would leave 0 stars but have to leave 1. He was rude, racist and condescending. He went on to say people like me. What was he insinuating.

Dr. Martin and his entire staff are basically like family to me now. I had two babies 14 months apart and am so happy to have been with Dr. Martin during my higher risk pregnancies. They always made me feel at ease and listened to me when I called worried or wanted to ask a million questions. He came in the day after Thanksgiving to deliver my second baby on his day off when he certainly did not have to. I recommend him to anyone I can and I love them all! I will never see another OBGYN.

Dr. Martin is by far the best doctor I’ve ever encountered. His bedside manner is impeccable. He made me feel at home and safe. Ms. Susan and Ms. Wendy are a delight as well. I will never go to any other doctor.

Dr. Martin is fantastic! I had an IUD that needed replaced and went to at least 3-4 different obgyn's that told me they could not take mine out without surgery (which was going to cost me a pretty penny). Dr. Martin insisted he has never had an issue taking one out, and although I didn't think he could, I let him try. He took it out in literally 10 seconds. Aside from that, he listens well and I have never felt rushed out of his office. I'll never go anywhere else.

Words can not express what an amazing doctor Dr. Martin is. I switched to his practice at 24 weeks during my first pregnancy and honestly consider it the best move I have ever made medically speaking. He is so encouraging and has a wonderful "bed-side manner". But even more than that, he is a partner during your pregnancy, supportive and available. When I told him I wanted to go for an unmedicated/non-intervention birth, he was all for it. He instils confidence and comfort with every visit.

Dr. Martin is the single best doctor I've ever had. His staff is incredibly kind, professional, and caring. Dr. Martin never rushed me and was always empathetic and compassionate. He has a great sense of humor but was still always professional. My entire pregnancy was made easier and better because of his care and expertise. I had horrendous PPD/A after I gave birth, and Dr. Martin and his team basically saved my life. I will be forever grateful for Dr. Martin and his team.

Dr. Martin is absolutely amazing. He has delivered both of my children and has the best personality. He is easy to talk I have never felt rushed. My first pregnancy he spent 1.5 hours with me going over any questions I had. I refer everyone I know to him that is looking for an OB-GYN. :)

Extremely bad experience with Dr. Martin. He was unresponsive, inconsistent with his answers and unwilling to provide the minimal level of care to myself and my baby. He has made such an important and joyous time a complete nightmare. I would not recommmend him.

I had my first visit with Dr. Martin yesterday. It was just a routine exam and I don't think any woman is ever excited about those, but he was extremely personable and made the entire experience comfortable and as pleasant as possible. The staff and his nurse were all very nice and professional and he also had a pre-med student shadowing which I thought was great of him. (nurse told me in advance and made clear it was my choice if she could be present for my exam)

Dr. Martin genuinely cares about patients from a holistic perspective; he always asks me what's going on in my life and not just what is going on with my body. I also appreciate that he listens to me when I'm describing a problem or asking questions. He is non-judgmental and an all-around good person!

From the moment I called to schedule an appointment with Dr. Martin I knew I was making the right choice. The staff is very accommodating, patient and helpful with scheduling and once you go into the office. I have never felt more safe, comfortable and at home in a doctor's office. Dr. Martin took the time to get to know me and discuss all of my history and problems I was having. He explained everything so that I would understand and put me at ease. By the time I left, I felt like family.
