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 receptionists, screw up appointments wasting peoples time and don't even apologize. Bathroom dirty every time gone there, always afraid to catch something. Parking always a pain at west end location. The doctor just brushes things off to go to next patient&seemed annoyed with questions like some sort of insult. There's better offices&gynecologists, not going back there.

I've been a patient of Dr.Gowell's for almost 20 years. He saved mine and my daughter's life when I was pregnant. Aside from that he has a wonderful bedside manner. He takes his time, answers any and all questions you have. He is by far the best doctor I've ever seen.

Dr. Gowell has performed 3 surgeries on me: a myomectomy in 2009, a c-section in 2012, and a hysterectomy in 2019. All 3 surgeries went very well and had minimal recovery time. He has a wonderful bedside manner and seems genuinely concerned about my well being while I am under his care. He takes time to answer questions and explains what he is doing without leaving the patient feeling confused or unsure. I would recommend Dr. Gowell without hesitation. He is the best around!!
