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.

Excellent physician: caring, and effective
I was in a bad car accident a year and a half ago, hit by a drunk driver. I finally saw Dr. Gentry after being recommended to him by a friend. I had an agonizing year of constant treatments , including PT, chiro, acupuncture, etc.--none of which gave lasting results. I tried it all. I had 2 herniated disks in my neck and he treated that with stem cell injections. I wish I hadn't waited so long. I can't believe it. I'm 2 months out, and my pain is GONE. I am finally getting my life back. I'm only 39...I need my spine for some more decades. I got a CTM injection in my hand that was 'permanently damaged' by the accident. Pain is now zero, and I've regained function in my right hand. I was told by the hand surgeon that the damage was 'irreversible.' It's now back to normal. After so long being in agony and really suffering, I am enormously grateful to Dr. Gentry. He's kind and caring, encouraging, but also he does not over-promise. I highly recommend him.

Seems as he didn’t want to deal with me. Immediately started talking bad about my insurance. Then ask me questions and when I was answering he interrupted, he asked again in a different way and I said I was answering you and you interrupted, then he said I interrupted him. So I said let’s start over. Left there and decided not to go back. I would never go to him again.

Dr. Gentry is truly an amazing doctor. He actually listens to his patients and uses a variety of modalities geared towards the elimination of pain and improving your quality of life. After trying pain meds etc, he recommended & performed an injection - he definitely hit the exact area causing my pain and I have felt great since the injection! I waited a few weeks before giving my review to make sure I would continue pain free. I'm a nurse that worked in surgery - so I was very hesitant about having injections on myself and I am extremely happy with Dr. Gentry and his entire staff. While in preop, I heard him communicating with a new hire at the surgery center and being helpful to the new hire - you typically do not see that in busy doctors and I thought it was truly exceptional and shows his outstanding & caring character too. He's a great person and talented physician.

I was initially apprehensive about going to another pain management doctor, since a previous injection did not help. Dr. Gentry was recommended to me by another doctor because I had continual pain in my back that was getting worse. He determined what was causing my pain. I agreed to have injections in my back. WOW!!! This changed my life!!! Most importantly Dr. Gentry is extremely skilled and knowledgeable. But, he is also very kind, funny, and down to earth. He is so caring and empathic and spends time explaining your situation. It is rare to find a doctor like this. He is a busy guy, because he is so good -- but he always makes you feel important.

In spite of the reviews being positive , I would not recommend Dr. Gentry to anyone . He made me feel like I was an addict looking for drugs . I live in chronic pain and thought I had found someone who would listen to me and help me.. why did he assume that I was coming to him for drugs ? I am looking for pain management . I left in tears and I would never ever go back . Total waste of my $160. He’s an arrogant , pompous man

Dr. Gentry, his office staff, his PA Xavier, and medical assistant Monica, are all very professional, knowledgeable, and kind. I have rarely had to wait even 10 minutes before being called to the treatment area then less than 5 min. to see Dr. G. He is honest, very educational, thorough, and personalizes your treatment plan. Whenever I have had an outpatient procedure by him, he is extremely good hearted, encouraging, and reassuring. Thanks Dr. Gentry & staff! ??

He's a great doctor but don't call them no one answers just some stupid automated system if you leave a message you can forget about ever having someone call you back. even though the whole staff is extremely friendly no one knows how to answer the phone or return calls. If you miss your appointment you get charged if you miss a procedure you get overcharged but yet there's no way to cancel them because nobody can ever answer the stupid phones

Dr Gentry and his assistant was absolutely great. Spent all the time needed to make sure we had a plan for me. I have spent weeks looking for a new Dr and praise the Lord I have my life back! His office staff is extremely professional. And was great to see they don’t over book, even though it’s the day before thanksgiving I had 0 wait time. She took me back as soon as I was finished with my paperwork.

Dr. Gentry and his entire staff are absolutely wonderful! I was suffering with low back pain, so much so that a simple trip to the mall was miserable. I was determined not to take any pain medication. My chiropractor recommended that I meet with Dr. Gentry to discuss some options. I am now PAIN FREE! I feel like Dr. Gentry has given me my life back.

Dr. Gentry is an amazing doctor. I would highly recommend him to anyone who has chronic pain. He and his staff are wonderful! I've never had any issues with him or anyone in his office. From someone who has Tricare insurance, we don't always get the best care when not living on or near a military installation. I can honestly say that Dr. Gentry is one of, if not the best physician that takes Tricare. I am so glad that I found him!!!
