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.

Second opinion!
If you get a recommendation for this doctor, you better make sure you get a second opinion. I’ve never seen such greed and lies within women’s health. I vet every single physician that I set up an appointment with ever since my experience. Keep in mind a lot of these doctors refer their patients to one another and do unwarranted procedures. Beware!

Super Doc
The visit was great. He is kind and patient and on top of things. My greatest praise is that he saw something in my routine CT Scan which put into action the finding of an endoscopic mass which is on light speed to treatment! I bless him with all my heart!

Best in Texas!
Dr. Loar is caring and takes time to listen to your issues. His staff is also the best. You won't find a better doctor in Texas - and possibly the states! I've already referred many people to him via friends and family. He is agressive in treating cancer so that you - hopefully - don't have to go through it again. Mine did return and he tackled it once again. It was right before Covid lockdowns hit and a second opinion doctor told me I should wait. I went right back to Dr. Loar who got the cancer out and began treatment. That was 4 years ago and I'm no evidence of disease as of now. I know not everyone has my story, but for the best chance, Dr. Loar is your guy!

I would have NO other Gynecologic Oncologist
In the face of aggressive ovarian cancer threatening to take me out, Dr. Paul Loar III saved my life. His team kept me going. He is exceptional. He cares very deeply about his patients and the quality of care they receive at his hands and at the hands of his team. He expertly performed a Da Vinci machine-assisted hysterectomy/salpingo-oophorectomy/omentectomy on me from which I recovered fast and well, no complications. The surgery resulted in optimal removal of stage 3(c) high grade serous ovarian carcinoma, which allowed me to enter chemotherapy treatment and come out the other side with no evidence of disease. Dr. Loar is the ultimate medical professional who relates to his patients compassionately and personally... he has my utmost respect forever.

I find Dr. Loar to be a very caring and compassionate person. He took the time to listen to my concerns and the visits were not rushed as they often are when visiting one’s physician. At the end of my visit I was left with a great feeling of hope and encouragement that I would survive no matter what.

Dr. Paul Loar lll, has been my oncologist since 2013. He performed an extensive radical hysterectomy at that time and has lead my chemotherapy treatment. Under his kind expertise, I have been able to have almost 6 years of remission and good quality of life even during many chemotherapy treatments. Initially diagnosed with stage 4 uterine cancer, gratitude for extending my life for nearly 10 years can't be expressed in words. Dr. Loar's has a crack team and with the new addition of a case manager, response time and communication are exceptional. I would recommend Dr. Paul Loar lll to any woman who has a gynological cancer. My family members consider him as a friend and expert in his field.
