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.

It's not that he is a bad doctor, he just shouldn't be practicing medicine. It seems the nurse just tell him where to go and what to say, while he seems to be on autopilot. Absolutely no critical thinking from the doctor I once loved and now it seems his solutions are just to ask the nurse, throw a pill or ask if you want him to give up and be sent somewhere else. No, I just want you to go back to being the doctor who cared and owned his career. I don't want a doctor in name and title only, who takes orders and advice from nurses and makes medical decisions after speaking with his clinic manager. Be a doctor, or retire. It's better than the road you are going down now.

Very bad. Dr Cotton treated us really bad. He is hardly ever in his office. We went to him for approximately 7 years. He put my husband who is a disabled veteran on a medication and refused to give us a script. We went and spoke to the person name Johnathan that is over all doctors at southwestern and then the office manager called us the next day and said Dr Cotton would not be seeing us again and told us we would be getting a letter telling us he would not see us again. Sure enough we got the letter the next day. Now we have no doctor and we are senior citizens. The office manager is so rude and dumb. Don’t know how she got that job. My advise. Don’t go to this doctor or use Southwester hospital. They have no feeling for anyone.

avoid this clinic, one of the worst in town, they never have your meds on time, and come up with excuses why they didn't do it like Dr not in, fax machine broke, nurse not in, every month they have a new excuse , went there for 5 years and saw Dr Cotten 1 time , always saw a PA .
