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.

Kind, knowledgeable, and caring
Doctor Porter took care of me 16 years ago for my first son, thanks to him I carried along a perfectly healthy pregnancy, he helped me be held accountable for the nutrition and habits I was having with the pregnancy, thanks to that I made the effort to not eat junk and exercise more, I maintained a healthy weight. At the time of the birth, he was there on time! Very supportive, and coached me. I so wished I had him for my second pregnancy. I will forever remember him as the best OBGYN that ever took care of me. Thank you so much Doctor Porter, God bless you always!

Highly recommend him
Dr. Porter was the one to deliver my three children and few times I've met a doctor that is at least as concerned, profesional, and human as Dr. Porter. You'd be at the best that OBGYN has to offer. Can't say enough. I've known him for about 50 yrs and he is still my go to for any issues, questions, advise, even though I haven't had children for a while. You can't go wrong with him

Unprofessional & creepy. Asked me to pull down my mask to "see my whole face so he can recognize me." Unsafe, unsanitary & unprofessional. Then pointed to his family tree photos on the wall and asked if I "recognized the handsome young man" that was him. Made up an excuse to leave before having an exam because I was so uncomfortable. Do not go here.
