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 Bowers was friendly and cordial but happy I sought a second opinion after results from Colonsocopy. Found cancer from polyp removal and he wanted to do a partial colectomy. Went to Sloan Memorial (cancer specialists) for a 2nd and they differed on that plan and did not see reason for surgery at this time as their testing indicates surgery at this time would be needless. On aggressive surveillance and 3 years later and no change and all is well.

Met with Dr. Bowers for a consult. He was very patient and answered all of my questions and more. He had a good bedside manner and was very knowledgeable. Office staff were equally as kind and helpful.

I had a thrombosed hemorrhoid removed at this private practice with Doctor Daniel Bowers. It was the most torturous pain that I have ever experienced in my life and this doctor was inhumane to how I was feeling after the procedure. The sterile pad that I had put on the area to apply pressure like they instructed me too ended getting stuck on the area were they performed the procedure and stuck like glue to the point that any touch was excruciating pain that I had to see the doctor again In less

Dr Bowers & his associates have given excellent care to our mom who had colon cancer. She was hospilized for 3 months due to complications. His staff was professional, courteous to us and our mom which spoke very little english her native language is Italian. She cried felt discouraged everyday he'd stop by to give her encouragement, that's a true sign of humanity, respect for others. Thank you Dr Bowers and the white team who labored over mom thru infections & set backs. We salute you
