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.

Professional. He treats what he can find. No unnecessary procedures to make a buck.

I fell and needed a kyphoplasty for a compression fracture and was referred to Dr Williams. His staff, PA, and Dr Williams treated me with great care and concern and the procedure went well. Dr Williams could see I was nervous and he prayed at my bedside before I was taken into the operating room. It gave me peace and I highly recommend this doctor and his staff. They all work together as a team.

My first time visiting after being involved in a car accident. He appears to come across as very cold and uncaring. His staff also comes across the same way and appear very unprofessional and uncouth. Just the thought of having to go in on today for a return visit, makes my skin crawl.
