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.

Nothing but excellence!
This is the first Dr that I’ve found, that will thoroughly examine the situations you’re facing and get down to the exact problem you’re having. He doesn’t run in and out like most without listening. Very knowledgeable and kind.

I had seen Dr. Otts' since I was fifteen, I an now turning 22 in one month. I have seen Dr. Chism since Otts' has retired. Chism is an awesome doctor. Of I have any questions about any part of my pregnancy, he has been there to provide any help he can. His staff is wonderful, I love joking around with them.

There's favortism at this office. The doctor will tell you one thing and the front desk will tell you different. When asked to follow up with the doctor the nurse and front desk has the final say not the doctor. The doctor will act as if he has no clue as to what's going on when you finally telling him at the appointment on the examinaction table. Customer service has really declined over the last 3 years. Find another doctor.
