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.

Treatment with Dr. Cooper
Dr. Cooper is great a diagnosing your illness. He is also great with the right dose and right medication. He is kind, quirky and makes you very company. He has always been listed in top docs and there is good reason for that! I highly recommend Dr. Cooper.

I visited Dr. Bryon Cooper's office in 8/21 when I was prescribed medication and given the wrong dosage. After taking the medicine three times a day as prescribed in writing, I began to experience serious side effects which prompted me to contact Dr Cooper's office. After discussing my symptoms with Dr Cooper and sharing that the medicine was too strong, he then inquired how much I was taking. I told him that I was taking the meds three times a day as he prescribed. He apologized immediately and told me I should have only taken it once a day. I was highly disappointed and vowed never to go back.

Instead of treating my husband, Dr. Cooper spent 28 minutes lecturing him and belittling him for not taking the Covid-19 vaccine, not once skimming through his medical chart to find out why he cannot take it. He ended the appointment without any treatment and no plans for follow up.
