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 Booker
Dr. Booker listened to my issues with my back. Gave me recommendations on how to proceed with treatment. We’re taking a conservative route before jumping into surgery, which made sense to me. Dr Booker seems to be a good doctor. I’ve been to him twice now, for two different problems.

Quick and thorough
Dr. Booker's office was able to get me in at time of my appointment. The nurse was very kind and was quickly able to get me processed and ready to see Dr. Booker. Dr. Booker entered very familiar with my case, gave a thorough analysis, and answered our questions. We very satisfied for the care we received and the respect they had for our time.

Professional with a Personality
Dr Booker explained everything in a way that I could understand and didn't seem to mind at all answering my questions. I never felt rushed and that is something I always look for in a doctor. He gained a forever patient today.

What a caring place
My first appointment was this morning and my experience was delightful. From the front desk through the exam, everyone was friendly and helpful. I saw Laura the PA and she was great. She took her time and explained everything and I could tell she genuinely cared. She put me at ease as to what the treatment and options would be for me.
