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.

Belittling and Dismissive
Met with Dr. Colby to talk about getting diagnosed with endometriosis, a condition that causes me extreme levels of pain during my monthly periods. A few weeks prior to said appointment, I was in the emergency room due to the pain and suspected that one of the endometriomas has burst. The emergency room doctor told me that I MUST see an OBGYN immediately, so I scheduled with Dr. Colby.Against the recommendation of my GP, my visit to the ER, my ultrasound and MRI results, Dr. Colby dismissed all my symptoms many which I’ve experienced for years and told me to either look into birth control or just take more pain medication. I was ignored when I told him that I’d unsuccessfully tried birth control and that the only high dose of pain meds that helped my pain were unsustainable. The ER doc threatened me within An inch of my life to NEVER take that dosage again.Please don’t visit this medical office!

He did an amazing job helping me through my twin pregnancy. He checked in on me in between appointments and checked in on me every morning of my hospital stay before going to the clinic. I’ve never felt so cared for.

I am a father and husband, I really like Dr. Colby he has a great attitude. He has delivered 2 of my children the first was normal and care free. the second the cord was around my sons neck did Dr. Colby panic or make me panic not in the least he was calm cool collected if we decided to have another one he would be the guy we go to. His staff is great to they are super nice and his doctor visits are fast and on time. I wish i would have meet him for the first 2 but 2 out of 4 aint bad. Thanks for the great care you rock.
