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.

Caring and thorough
Dr. Dayton combines compassion and professionalism. I felt my concerns were heard and addressed. He is both a skilled and experienced physician, and a kind and caring person.

From sign in to sign out, my experience was smooth and efficient. Dr. Dayton answered all of my questions and discussed renewal of any medications and provided the Rx's. He was attentive and caring.

I highly recommend Dr Dayton. He is an experience and knowledgeable doctor. He discusses the procedure with the patient (me) before its been done and during the examination. Dr Dayton or someone in his office will contact the patient, either by phone or by mail with the result.

Dr. Dayton has been my obgyn for many years. He is kind, compassionate and takes his time to explain any questions or procedures. He is very knowledgeable in his field. I trust him completely. He listens and is not in a hurry to get you out of the office.

I was very pleased with Dr. Dayton. He made me feel comfortable in an office setting that is not usually a comfortable visit for me. He communicated very well and answered my questions. I did not feel rushed. I did not have to wait long to be brought back and the staff worked well and efficiently. Very pleased.

Worst doctor ever ! Gives medications that no other doctors prescribe because the side effects are so lethal! He also yells at patients and defends his incompetent staff over the patient. Be forwarned and don't believe every fabulous review you read!

Dr Dayton has been my ob/gyn since 1981. Three daughters, two miscarriages and a surgery later, I can't recommend Dr. Dayton highly enough. He is compassionate, kind and knowledgeable. We know how busy doctors are and I never felt like a number. With one of my miscarriages, my husband hasn't made it to the hospital yet and I was understandably upset. He didn't leave until my husband arrived. I will never forget his kindness.
