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.

More like the care you got in thr 80s and if you weren't around then, it was complete and personal. I guess that is another benefit to living in a small town. 5 *****

I love my doctor! I have been seeing him for years! He always takes the time to listen and explain things. He is never rushed to get out of the room and is always friendly.

Up until now we have been very pleased with Dr Nolen, but my wife has been treated for 6 weeks for severe pain from shingles. Now he has set her up for a pain block and is leaving it to the pain clinic for any more pain meds. only problem, they wont see her for a month which means she will have nothing for pain until then. Not too sure about him right now.
