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.

Great Doctor
Dr. Skinner takes her patient’s health very seriously. I would be very passive about my health if not for her. She has been my doctor for a very long time now. I knew right away she was the right doctor for me because she holds me accountable. She cares. She is the best!

Amazing Dr.
I have never felt this cared for and in good hands before.She is amazing and listens to you. When she does see you, you don’t feel rushed and that is so important so that the doctor gets to hear your concerns. I blessed to have her as a doctor.

The BEST DOC ever!
I don't know WHY Dr. Skinner is receiving negative reviews, however, everyone has their own opinion. My experience has been absolutely wonderful working with Dr. Skinner. While in search for a doctor for my mom several years ago, I was desperate to find a family doctor that could treat her myraid of health issues. I showed up without an appointment at the end of the day and this lady took my mom in, evaluated her condition and have been treating her for the past six years! She calls me at home to check up on her after hours sometimes, and very recently took the time to send me an encouragement card when she found out I was also taking care of my husband due to a stroke. What doctor does that??? She is thorough, caring, and extremely attentive. If I could give her 10 stars I would.

The kindness, smartest most compassionate doctor I have ever met. I’m so fortunate to have her in my life. She spends as much time as she can with each patient. It’s a busy practice and she always responds to emails ASAP. I love Dr Skinner!

Dr. Skinner works with her patients to find the safest and most effective treatments available. She worked with me to transition off of military prescribed narcotics and onto medicines that have multiple benefits to my overall health without the probability for addiction. Dr. Skinner also offered various alternative, homeopathic, and newly researched non-Rx methods to supplement Rx medication. She promotes physical fitness and mental wellbeing and will recommend trusted and experienced specialists. Dr. Skinner and her team are very responsive to phone calls and patient portal requests/questions. She took the time to listen to me, identify with me, and speak to me at my level about health concerns.

As a fellow healthcare professional, I have the utmost respect for Dr. Skinner. I would recommend her in a heartbeat to anyone who is looking for a new pcp. She listens well, looks at the whole picture (which is what I love about DO’s), thorough, caring, easy to talk to and down to earth. She isn’t quick to give medications which I appreciate. She is responsive and replies to you herself in a timely manner.

I don't think she does enough for her patients. She is very flakey and not very thorough. She is a little to pill happy instead of working on other ways to resolve issues. Not responsive when contacted

A new patient appointment was difficult to get as she is very busy and quite frankly she doesn't want to overbook her patients. Once in, appointments are easy. She is very attentive to your needs, condition, etc., She spends plenty of time with you during an appointment - I have never felt rushed. She is direct and to the point and doesn't sugar coat. I look for honesty and integrity in a doctor and I feel I have it here. If you only want sunshine and rainbows you may want to go somewhere else.

Not a nice doctor and not very good to work with as she is not open to new methods of medical care, wellness methods of care, insulting comments about patients written in their chart, and does not listen to her patients for adequate outcomes. It's her way or the highway, she is quick to get you out the door, and if you have any type of urgent issues and need help, she won't help you, and will have the staff do her dirty work. Patients are just a number and a dollar.

Absolutely ridiculous. Dr. advertises taking new patients, call to get an appointment first available March 2018!!! How is that taking new patients. They need to get off the website and stop advertising and wasting peoples time until they are ready to book new patients in a timely manner. No excuse for this.

By far the best physician I have ever had! Dr Skinner got my health on track and I feel better then I have in over 10 years. She spends a lot of time with me during my visits, addresses all of my concerns and I never feel rushed. I have already recommended her to 3 people who have changed to her practice as well.

Dr. Skinner is by far the best primary care physician I've seen. She listens intently, provides her feedback in a supportive way, and is incredibly knowledgeable. She's exactly what you hope to find in a primary care physician, and unfortunately that is all too rare these days. I now have my husband seeing her as well and look forward to being her patient for many years to come. 5 stars all around for demeanor, communication, wait time, scheduling, etc. Highly, highly recommend!

Experience with Dr. Skinner has been great. She is patient and listens. She inquires and suggests as a physician should. You feel very comfortable discussing your concerns. But calling the office to ask a simple question on your care, a nightmare! I always have to hold my breath praying for a nice person to get on the phone, greeting but they won't answer. Inpatient and nasty to me especially after giving my name. Tammy for one. Am I not qualified to use this practice? Is she only used to a type
