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.

Very professional doctor. Courteous and highly knowledgeable.

Excellent. This a man who cares about his patients and it shows. Things are a bit chaotic in the office, but it IS during a pandemic and we were there at lunch time when there was less staff. We did receive new patient paperwork in advance via email, so not quite sure what other reviewers were criticizing.

Does not communicate well and staff makes mistakes like ordering the wrong prescriptions. Very unhappy with this doctor and his staff and I will not be going back.

Dr Everett seems to be a great doctor, however his office practices responsibility and interaction with his clients is horrible. I am having to change doctors just because of his office policies and personnel. It's a shame that he appears to have great talents but his office personnel make it very undesirable. They cancelled my appointment without notifying me and when I showed up they refused to let him treat me.

He's fine. His staff is very rude when questioned or crossed. Pretend to be pious and will cancel your appointment without a thought.

Have tried twice to set an appointment as a new patient. Both times have had to leave a message for Cindy. Don't understand the importance of sending out a questionnaire before seeing some one that is ill, or why it must be faxed or mailed only. With technology, I would think it could me emailed in order to help the patient . Not a good first impression. Moving on!

my visit with Dr Everett was terrible. he made me do this whole work up, only to tell me I needed to go on a diet. keep in mind I'm not even 100 pounds. also, I had to pay out of pocket for X-rays, and I never got my results from their office. their customer service is terrible, the ladies at the desk is terrible and it's seriously the worst doctors experience I've ever had. and I work in the health care field so I know how to treat patients the CORRECT way. don't waste your time or money here!!

Can't even see him thanks to his secretary that NEVER answers the phone! Doesn't do any good to leave a message either. She never returns your call.
