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. Villaret is wonderful
Dr. Villaret is a great doctor! He was very thorough and explained things so well. He made me feel very comfortable with the upcoming surgery I need. His nurse, Heather is also spectacular. I like that she carried on great conversation and never made me feel rushed.

Physician is good but billing practices are not
Billing office for this practice uses extremely aggressive and harmful collection process. Sending to collections before bill is even due and after they were notified that the claim needed to be corrected and resubmitted to insurance for payment. No respect for patient

Dr. Villaret is wonderful
Dr. Villaret is wonderful! He is so thorough and picks up details that others miss. He is really smart and really listens. His staff is also excellent, especially his assistant Dee. She is so helpful and kind. I never feel like I am a number with them. I feel like I'm an individual getting the best care from people who really care.

Dr. Villaret is the best of the best.
I cannot say enough good and positive about Dr. Doug Villaret and his team in Pineville, NC. Dee, his nurse, is wonderful, too. Dr. Villaret is kind, caring, patient, professional, hard-working, and a champion, in my book. I had a difficult situation that had me feeling lousy for several years. I almost gave up hope. He stuck by me with referrals, tests, surgeries, etc. Two days ago, Dr. Villaret operated and gave me my life back. I’m forever grateful.

Dr Vilarette has performed multiple surgeries on me, including a full laryngectomy. Not for Dr and his devotion as well as staff, I probably would not be here to write this. He pulled me through 2 separate mouth, throat general area cancers. Thank you.
