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.

Love his professionalism
I have absolutely nothing but good things to say about Doctor Watkin. He was my QME evaluation physician in my workers comp case, and his report carried more than enough weight to get my claim approved. He even overrode the workers comp doctor I was assigned to, when he continuously tried to send me back to work, injured! I truly appreciate everything Dr. Watkin has done for me.

Watkin in gave me a 50% preexisting condition of osteoarthritis in shoulder after looking at a two-year-old MRI of the injury after complaining to several doctors about my shoulder following my accident none of the doctor's included my shoulder in their reports Watkin states I tore the tendons in my shoulder using a cane part-time. QUACK!!

Dr. Watkin is a bully. His demeanor is pompous and he talks to you like you're a child. He's nothing but a hippie in a doctor's lab coat. He makes assumptions without asking clarifying questions. Doesn't take the time to get to know the patient just judges you based on assumptions. I would not choose this man as my doctor on a permanent basis. Will not go back to him in the future. The rest of the staff members were nice, accommodating and treated me kindly and professionally.
