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 Harris is a Top notch DR, His office staff is extremely helpful, professional and efficient. Wait times are VERY MINIMAL...As many reviews state, he is in and out like a hurricane ,However I can not agree that he does not take his time in answering patients questions, he always has time for his patients. It is true that he does not participate in small talk and he is all business, but he is Not Rude and unsympathetic. He is a surgeon who is Very knowledgeable...He is not there to socialize

Dr. was affable and professional. I had gone to several doctors and had many done his visit and tests were all basically OK. I had a terrible Practitioner ordered an MRI for my hips and back when I was in excruciating knee pain! I asked him to include knees to avail. The minute Dr. Harris saw my swollen hand, he said it was Rheumatoid Arthritis! Then go to the Rheumatologist. had PMR, a that presents itself as Rheumatoid Arthritis! Thank you Dr. Harris!

Don't go unless you need surgery. I went to him with an excruciating painful sprained ankle and he had no interest. Sent me on my way telling me it would be 4 to 6 weeks before my pain May be relieved by physical therapy. I had to call my primary doc to get a boot so the ankle is supported so it can heal and the pain is relieved. I had a similar experience with a hand I couldn't use it was so painful. I could go on - I have finally learned my lesson - I won't go back.

I was disappointed with my new-patient appointment with Dr. Harris. During my examination he did not clearly explain what condition I had or why it had occurred, when I asked to know more about my condition and how to prevent it he simply said I had hyper elasticity. As a new patient I expected to be seen for atleast fifteen minutes but it was five minutes long tops.
