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.

My husband has dealt with one health issue after another since June 2019. Seen many doctors. I have learned a lot. There are few doctors that I trust. I trust Dr. Felts. He is a doctor who REALLY CARES about his patient. He goes BEYOND what any other doctor does. He did surgery on my husband yesterday. Had nurse call me to let me know how things were going, because of this pandemic, I couldn't be at hospital. He cared about me. I am grateful for that. My husband is home today. Alive and well. Dr. Felts knows what he is doing. He explains EVERYTHING that will be done. And the things that could go wrong. He is a man of his word. If you want a Doctor you can trust. Talk to. Ask questions. Dr. Frank Felts is the doctor to see.
