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.

Dr Watkins was very impatient. He was uninteresting in hearing my concerns. The appointment was very rushed and a complete waste of my time.

When I first met Dr Watkins for a consult on my daughter'foot, I could tell right away he was very compassionate and caring towards his patients and his professionalism reflected his love for his career. He talked to my daughter (14) directly and answered any of her questions she may of had about the surgery and the recovery. He then spoke to me and reassured the nervous mom! His staff is SUPER amazing and friendly. When Dr Watkins saw the smile my daughter had from the results of her surgery, I knew at that point her reaction truly meant something to him. I especially liked that he took his time at the appointments and we never felt rushed. He explained things in a manner we both could understand. I was so impressed with Dr Watkins, I came back to him 2 years later for my surgery. I Highly recommend Dr Watkins and his staff for all ages
