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.

"Simply the best"
When I met Dr. Plante, I was literally knocking on deaths door; by all means feel free to ask him if you will....he took my situation seriously as others did NOT! I HAD been through roughly 7 ish doctors or so over several months to no avail. I am very Thankful to everyone at Dr. Plante's office; they treat everyone like family; I know I was a regular lol! You will thank yourself for trusting indra. Plante and family! Thank you Dr. P!

Every effort is made by Dr. Plante to find the cause and cure for your ailment. He takes his responsibility seriously and uses his experience and testing to help you regain wellness. Not part of the industry of medicine, he is purely involved in making you well. He spends time talking with you, noting what you say and then summarizes it to get your approval about his understanding. He has an excellent grasp of the real world, quoting drug prices at various retailers. He responds to your requests for appointments and help, as if you were his only patient. Dr. Plante is cordial and warm, and makes you feel comfortable. He is the real deal in medicine, a doctor that will solve issues that others have given up on. Very trustworthy.

Best doc I ever had when I lived in Columbia. Quickly fixed my high blood pressure that others doctors had not been able to fix. Caring and takes tons of time with patients.

Dr. Plante has been my primary physician for more than 25 years. He is professional yet personal. He listens to your concerns and recommends the best course of treatment. I have referred several acquaintances to his practice.

Frustrated with the staff. It has been 7 months and still no appointment. They took months to get records, schedule labs, and CT scans for both of us. I came in for a bone scan, was the only one waiting for the scan, and was kept waiting an hour past my appointment time because the tech. was looking at files??? I had to leave for work. I noted how rude they were about my time. Then the front desk girl told me I would never have an appointment (punishment) for not waiting longer.

Dr. Plante & his nurse are inept @ filing paperwork & his nurse does not return calls. Saw him in early April, diagnosis indicated I needed MRI. They lost my insurance information & miscoded my diagnosis, so MRI was denied twice. After multiple attempts to get MRI paperwork coded correctly, was told I had to get unnecessary X-ray first & he could do nothing further for me. I would think twice before using his practice. More concerned with his own health & his hunting jaunts than his patients.
