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.

I highly recommend Dr. Templeton. Took the time to explain everything. I'm so glad we were referred to him.

Was referred to him because of kidney stones. Did not want to listen to anything I had to stay. His solution was “drink more water” I now need to see a new urologist and my nerves are terrible because I don’t want to be treated or brushed off like he done me.

I was seen by the doctor in the ER where I was rushed into having a shunt put in me and told I would be able to return to work the next day. I was unable to return to work the next day, have had to triple my pain medicate so I can function and his nurse refuses to return my calls. Guess I will be making a personal visit to their office on my lunch break tomorrow .

Dr. Templeton performed a radical prostatectomy on me because I had prostate cancer. The knowledge, care, and attention given to me and my family was outstanding. After the diagnosis, he laid out the options for treatment. I chose taking it out because of watching my dad die of the prostate cancer in 1981. Choosing Dr. Templeton as your urologist would be a wise choice. God used him to save my life and I am forever grateful.

I am very pleased with my visit and surgery performed by Dr. Templeton. He laid out my options, and allowed plenty of time to answer my questions. His staff was great, and I did not have a long wait to see him. My surgery went great. Thanks Dr. Templeton.

Did not like his attitude. Kept saying quit playing doctor when I was asking questions. And I only asked maybe two questions because he came in and out like the wind.
