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.

Fantastic young physician!
My visit for him was quite by default as my primary care doc was booked. He was by far one of the most compassionate, caring, attentive and knowledgeable doctors I’ve been seen by. Bar none. One old review read him as “arrogant” and “self-centered.” I’m not quite sure what planet they are on. His compassion and thoroughness were appreciated (I was in emergency medicine for 18 years). His care felt genuine not like is what just his profession but his passion! If Dr. Bendezu wasn’t my guy over 8 years and likewise as great Wortman, M.D. would be my new guy! He has nowhere to go but up! Thank you doc for making feel human and not like cattle!

Dr Wortman is the most arrogant self important medical "professional" i have ever encountered. He lacks compassion, interpersonal skills, common sense, and courtesy. He abruptly terminated my status as a patient after having inherited me as part of a practice he assumed when replacing my previous doctor because I would not transfer other portions of my medical treatment to his practice. He, on multiple occasions, accused me of getting more medication than he prescribed from other sources which was not true, a fact he came to realize after further examination of his electronic records. I would recommend that no one trust this man with their health and well being.

I have been a nurse 37 years. Most of those years acute care, thus I have dealt with physician's most of my life. Dr wortman. Is one of the greats! He truly treats you like his own family. His care and compassion far exceeds most physicians as does his knowlege. He is never afraid to take extra time to think outside the box. He is a rare jewel.

I have been a nurse for 37 years. Acute care 34 years. I have dealt with Dr's pretty much my whole life. He is by far one of the out knowledgeable and truly caring and compassionate. He listens to his patients and treats them like his own family. He never hurries anyone. He thinks outside the box which is rare now days!

Nice bedside manner and comes into room obviously refreshed on your medical history and prepared to discuss, answer questions, make referrals (if needed) and treat you.

I can't recommend Dr Wortman enough. He's incredibly knowledgeable but his bed side manor is what really sets him apart. He truly cares and personally follows up on things. With some doctors you feel like a number but with him it feels like you actually matter.
