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.

Went in for an annual check up that shpuld have been part of my no charge preventative care. Dr. Bell came in asked me if I had any questions. I said I tend to have anxiety and if there's anything I should know or could do. He offered to do lab work which I declined because I have a baby on the way and all finances are going towards that. Dr. Bell changed my visit to a wellness visit and I now have a $230 Bill. All for spending literally 5 minutes talking about lab work options. I will not go bk

He's kind, listening rather than waiting to talk, easy to speak to. Most docs seemed to looked down on me, and meant to make me feel stupid. i had the crazy idea i knew more about exactly how I was feeling and my symptoms, than docs I've known for hours. sorry for the rant, but what I'm getting at is that Dr. Bell never made me feel stupid or a burden. he's receptive to my thoughts, though rarely agrees lol. but i feel i have a bit of dignity when i leave. I've referred a friend who's a patient
