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.

Rude, condescending
Pushes the jab too much. Doesn’t listen to patient. Wait times average 2-3 hours and then he’s rushed!

Dr Powers is not educated on updated information of medical conditions our family faces. We knew more than he did. He also lacks compassion, is quick to judge, asks only a few questions and does not listen to the answers. He does not look to understand the patient.

Very attentive and thorough physician
Dr. Powers was recommended to me by other physicians and people in the medical field. Although I am generally not a huge fan of doctors, I am very pleased with Dr. Powers attentiveness and competency. As a post-50 year old, the doctor and undertaker are on an inverse scale of importance as I amble forward. I am very please I chose him and his staff to be my primary care physician. He is certainly the best GP that I have had in the last 30+ years.
