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.

Urgent care visit
Dr Lowry was fantastic with my 4yo dx with flu and strep. He did a very thorough assessment. Talked to her in a way that made her feel comfortable and got her treated and out the door. He made sure we had everything we needed. Not how we wanted to spend Christmas day but could not say enough about the top notch care given by Dr Lowry.

Wouldn’t give the care I hoped for
The guy had a very lackadaisical attitude towards my severe back pain. When my wife and I told him that I’ve had previous treatment and told him what I’d need to help me, he flat out ignored it and gave some weird, whimsy response. I left in the same condition and feeling I came with. He would’ve even take the time to go over my chart which he would’ve clearly seen I’ve been treated for the exact same problem. I absolutely would not recommend him as a provider.

He's a smart butt and is out of the medical field in his personality. I would not recommend him to my poor fur baby, he was extremely rude to my husband
