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.

Best Doctor
My wife and I have been going to Dr Hartman over ten years and she is the best. Of course you can’t please everyone but she is a ten in my book. Her staff is very caring and she always answer questions online when needed. Dr. Hartman is very thorough when problems arise.

Great Doctor
I really respect and appreciate Dr. Hartman. She’s been my PCP choice for 8 plus years. My appointments are never rushed. She takes time to listen to my issues and when a referral is needed she’s recommended top specialists. I moved from Waco 2 years ago but I commute to see Dr. Hartman and my specialists as I don’t want to change doctors. Any communications with her office are quickly answered. I have nothing but good things to say about Dr Hartman and her staff (reception, nurses, lab).

Totally unprofessional. Been seeing this Doctor for 6 years at an appointment this morning. To come in for yearly, work found out that I'm not a patient anymore. And it's because one of her nurses cross the line and called another doctor that I found when I did not give them permission when she was only supposed to make me an appointment with doctor hartman to talk about my m r I. This is one of those places where the nurses and doctors cover each other's behind's. To protect the good name of the office beware , find another place that actually cares about you. I've been having to go get shots in my hips for pain. Doctor Hartman never wants in the years that I've seen her recommended that I go and get it. It's something I did on my own for her nurse to go out a line and call that Doctor there was no reason for that. They didn't even ask if it was okay if they did it. That is crossing the line in a business profession.. I wish I could submit a picture

I’ve been going to Dr. Hartman for 2 years now and always feel well taken care of during and afterwards. She’s thorough and knows her stuff and will quickly refer me to a specialist if she doesn’t specialize in it.

Not so good
The notes from the visit implied that we had discussed several conditions which were only mentioned briefly in passing. No action was taken. Earwax buildup was noted and I mentioned that home remedies were ineffective. I was told that the nurse would clean it out but it didn't happen.

Dr. Hartman truly listens.
When so many doctors just seem to rush in and out of the exam room, only half listening and not letting you finish talking, she listens. She cares and you can hear it, not just in the words she says, but in her tone of voice and see it in her face. Dr. Hartman is a wonderful doctor and I recommend her to my friends and family. Several of my family members are now patients of her's.
