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.

Wonderful surgeon
Developed a hernia and torn stomach muscles on an intense hike. Dr. Watters was able to determine the issues within minutes of meeting with me and performed surgery shortly afterwards. He was professional and did an amazing job. Just two weeks post op and I’m already walking around without pain. Can’t wait to start hiking again! I was even able to speak directly to him on the phone after my surgery when I had a question. You will be in good hands with Dr. Watters. Highly recommend.

Dr Watters is the BEST.
He did my surgery expertly....exceeding expectations! Though I'm a SENIOR citizen, he took time to explain everything to me (he even drew pictures). He is comforting and funny....a really great bedside manner! This young man is my all time FAVORITE doctor! And yes, at my age, I've known quite a few (:-)
