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.

First visit
I was very impressed with his bedside manor. As a new patient, he took time to listen and explains interesting ways. Very comfortable and easy going.

Odd
Very unsettling way he spoke to me, almost felt like he was talking to a child. I wont be going back. Had a 5 minute conversation which could have been accomplished over the phone. one of the last things he had said to me " Don't die on me, that's bad for business". A weird character.

First .... my husband was sent by ambulance to the ER and the he was the cardiologist on call that afternoon, unfortunately he had the most horrible attitude that I have ever encountered EVER. If it had not been for fear of what was happening to my husband I would have asked him why he was speaking so crudely and demeaning. Well, I made up my mind, that when we left there, I would be seeking out another cardiologist for my husband. Very condescending and arrogant

My husband is Dr. Davis's patient. I go with him to all his appointments. Dr. Davis has always treated us with kindness and patience. He makes us feel like we are very important to him and never rushes us. He believes in "less is better" in the prescription drug area, which we like. Only once have we had to wait longer than 10-15 minutes. I would highly recommend him to new patients.

I had an appointment with Dr. Davis at 11:15am. This was my second appointment with him as was in preparation for my shot to my back for spinal stenosis. My first appointment went well from a wait time but he spent almost 15 minutes lecturing me on my smoking habits. He finally said he would approve me for the shot and suggested that I get a nuclear scan to check out my heart for surgery. I asked him if his office would schedule it. He said they would. So far that has not been done. It took two phone calls to get them to fax the information to Dr. Rohan so he could schedule the shots. I finally got the shot. It only took two weeks to accomplish that. The second visit was to let me know how my heart was doing but no scan had been done. I arrived at his office 15 minutes early as it is my habit to do so. At 12:18 I was still in the waiting room and three patients were ahead of me. Needless to say I left as I figured it would be at least another 30 minutes before I would be seen.

On my first visit he seemed to speak to me like a child, so I just wrote it off as new patient mannerisms- over compensating to make a good impression. Second visit he was just down right insulting. I’ve been dealing with hypertensive heart problems & palpitation for myself for 30 years and handled medical care for two parents and my husband as well. I found Dr. Davis to be condescending and irritating in his communication with me. He also did not take my issue seriously enough in my opinion.

I am a retired RN of 40 years. I always look at the education of the doctor I am considering to be my physician. Dr Davis passed that test easily. I also consider the hospital he/she practices in, the location of their office and how professional it is managed. I am very please with all three. I enjoy my visits with Dr Davis, as he not only manages my current health needs, but he discusses the latest information in cardiology treatment. He was a great source for me in dietary choices.
