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.

Don't try and see him, he's too busy!
Truth! I 'have' a medical problem. I called his office, he's too busy try the clinic. Access Health. They gave me drugs and a chest Xray. When I tried to get the results from the clinic, they said call your PCP. I called the PCP office, and they said, call the clinic?? They didn't want to tell me the x-ray showed 'pulminary edema' which is life threatening!! To this day, NO ONE has called me about it. Access Health and Dr? Robert Hartzell need to be destroyed.

Doesn't return calls
That describes the issue. Although Dr. Hartzell has good reviews, I have to differ. For the last week I've been calling him about a health issue I have. His office staff (which should have 0 stars) keep telling me he will call when he's through with his last patient, which in my opinion is poor quality of care, and I don't get a call. I've been calling since Wednesday, September 21 to no avail. He did give me a return call on Friday at 3:30pm which I was unable to answer. He also left a message but today, Monday I'm in the same situation. Today, after his office closed I called my insurance and filed a grievance. I am also looking for another doctor. Just because some ratings are good, it doesn't mean he's a good doctor. I'll be following up on this review.

I’ll keep this simple. Dr. Hartzell is the best Dr. I’ve ever had by a long shot. I actually look forward to my visits. I always leave feeling so much better in every way. I’ll never use anyone else for me and my family. If you need a great Dr. to help you with your health and wellness do yourself a favor and meet this man.

Doctor Hartzell is one of the most caring doctors I have had the pleasure of having. His staff is no different and will go the length to make sure all is well. His even helped assist me with others in the family. He does not rush you in and out, expect a wait because he takes time with his patients and actually listens. Seriously not a typical doctor, he is a good man.
