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 Joyner is very professional and caring….. very important attributes for a healthcare provider!

Great experience!
Wait time was minimal. The nurse took me into a room, took my vitals then told me someone would take me for x-rays. Almost immediately I was taken around the corner for those. When I got back to the room, Dr. Joyner came in, showed me the x-rays, and explained everything. He allowed me plenty of time to voice my concerns, and we agreed on a plan of treatment together. I really appreciate a doctor who listens. It was a really great experience from beginning to end!!!

Very caring Dr.
I was referred to Dr Joyner by another Dr. Doctor Joyner was very kind, and very patient as I explained my situation. He was very easy to talk with as he explained my situation to me. He explained things so as I could easily understand what was going on with my hand. His staff was very sweet and nice as well. I’d definitely recommend him to others that need an orthopedic Dr.

Happy with the outcome of my appointment
I went in to have an issue with my hand checked out and ended up having it taken care of during the appointment. Dr Joyner let me know what the treatment options were, how the procedure I chose would go, and what to expect after leaving his office. Good communication- if I have any hand issues in the future, I will be returning.
