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.

My family chose Dr. Earman to perform hip surgery on my 93 year old mother after a fall. This was a traumatic experience for all of us. I am very far away and the incident itself had traumatized me to the core. Dr. Earman was very honest about my mother's prognosis. It could go either way but felt the surgery was the most hopeful option for my mother. He is very skilled and worked quickly. My mother pulled through and we are very thankful that he was willing to take the risk as well. She may not be around much longer or she might ( this type of accident in elders can be fatal), but at least we have some extra time. Dr. Earman may God bless you.

Dr Earman treats my 89 year old mother with such care and respect. He is not only a good doctor but a good man.

Dr Earman did surgery on both of my knees one around three months ago and one three years ago. I am very happy with the results. He is a very kind doctor and takes time to listen to everything you have to say. I would definitely use him again if needed

Did only one of my disks in my back and missed the other one somehow. His reason being was that the other one didn't look like it was causing you pain so I left it alone.

I make appointments to see Dr. Earman and although he is in a Nurse Practioner comes in to see you instead of the doctor. I'm not paying for that knowledge. There should be an option. My other doctors if there not in you have an option of seeing a NP. For simple things yes, but for more involved medical care I don't want to see a NP. My ratings are based only on the times I got to see the doctor.

I have been going to Dr Earman for approximately 9 years. He explains procedures in detail and that's important to me.
