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.

Dr. Welch is very attentive and knowledgeable about preventive maintenance and healing the human body. Best doc I've had in years!

Dr. Welch is no longer at Ventana. He practices at CHC on East Grand in AG. He is a what you'd want a dr. to be. He listens & explains, He seems thorough & he is a D.O. so he considers the entire body, not just the symptom. So far, so good.
