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.

I would highly recommend Dr Wolcott as a neurologist . My mom took me to multiple different drs/hospitals until I was around 5 years old (2000-2005) because she thought I was having seizures. The doctors told her I was fine and what she thought was seizures was really a temper tantrum. In 2009, 28 days before giving birth to my sister, I went to work with her bc I didn't feel right. While I was napping behind her desk she seen movement out of the corner of her eye. I was having a grand mal seizure. Paramedics arrived and took me to Saint Elizabeth a few blocks away. That is when we finally got some answers thanks to Dr Wolcott. I was then diagnosed epileptic and started medication that controlled my seizures. He was always leaving smiles on our faces no matter the test results. There was always a warm friendly energy in his presence and he'd never forget a story you told him. I would highly recommend him as a neurologist to anybody wanting answers.

Dr. Wolcott is the BEST pediatric neurologist hands down!! I've gotten migraines for over 30 years and have unfortunately passed them onto both of my young sons. Dr. Wolcott has their migraines under control & is always patient when addressing any & all of my concerns during their visits. This man is truly an angel and I'm so thankful we found him!!

Dr Wolcott is very Kind. He is a great doctor and very thorough he takes his time with his patients to make sure that they feel comfortable. He explained everything to the child and to the parents. He is straightforward and he answers every question that I have ever had. If I don't understand then he goes and death to make sure that I understand some of the larger Medical terminology. I would recommend him to everyone. He does Great work!! Keep it up!
