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.

Awesome!
New patient - he had a comforting way about him, listened, explained , and really focused on me and my areas of concern, not rushing me and running off to the next appointment as they were running behind- BUT I always factor that in to and Ob/GYN visit - babies arrive on their timeline! Would definitely recommend based on initial visit and follow ups scheduled!

Dr. Howell has been my OBGYN for about 7 years and recently was my doctor for the pregnancy of my first son. I have never met someone who cares about his patients like Dr. Howell. He has the best bed side manner and there is no one else I would rather have deliver my children.

Dr. Howell is the absolute BEST doctor EVER!! He took care of all my needs/concerns for my 1st pregnancy and delivered my son. And he also helped me through my 2nd pregnancy but 1st miscarriage at 9 wks. I've never had a doc that is SO real, down to earth, professional, and genuinely excited to help you bring your baby into the world, and genuinely saddened for you throughout a miscarriage. I trust and value his advice 100%! He is so caring and the ultimate best doc ever!!

I REALLY liked Dr. Howell. However, the office staff there were terrible. They never sent over the right paperwork to the insurance. Every single transaction I had to call back and forth between my insurance and Howell's Billing Department. My insurance was great (surprisingly) but Howell's office staff lectured me, were rude to me and acted like I was an idiot. This was my first pregnancy so of course I was clueless BUT I do know when I'm being overcharged and WILL do what is right for me.

Dr. Howell is really great about listening to questions and answering them with objectiveness and compassion. He has put many of my fears at ease as he is trustworthy and knowledgeable. He truly cares about each one of his patients and brings encouragement and hope even in a difficult situation rather than judgment. I never feel like I am asking a stupid question. I am grateful to be in his care.
