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. Estes has been following me for a couple of years and I couldn’t be more pleased with how he has managed my issues in a kind, thoughtful and compassionate manner. He’s the best!

He’s the Absolute Best
Dr. Estes did my surgery back in November 2009. He made me feel so comfortable and answered all my questions plus made sure I understand exactly what to expect after my surgery. He’s very patient and thorough. It’s very clear that he Loves his Profession. I’m currently driving from Baton Rouge to New Orleans just because I need surgery again and I only want and trust Him. May God Continue to Bless him!

He and his staff made me feel so comfortable and calm regarding my procedure, both during the office visit and right before the procedure, as well as after.

I went in to Dr. Estes office hurt and confused. My previous doctor handled my diagnosis very poorly and by the time I made it to him, I just wanted answers. Not only is his staff incredible, but the man himself is exactly what I needed in that situation. He took the time to explain the disagnosis, the treatment plan, and other possible scenarios. He even drew me a diagram of a procedure we discussed. He is highly knowledgeable, but listens to your needs and works with you. Best doctor on staff.

DR. Jacob Estes allowed his hands and mind to be used by GOD to save my life. God gave me a miracle and he used Jacob Estes to deliver that miracle to me. These type doctors are few and far between, and I had the privilege to have known this man as my physician and friend. Angela Kaye Catrett / UAB Patient
