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.

Dr Porter is just a great doctor is listen to you.

Caring & Knowledgeable
Due to an unfortunate açcidental encounter with a boulder in my front yard, I substantially hurt my right shoulder while trying to break my fall. Dr. Porter provided some immediate pain relief. And outlined possible options for the future. I felt heard & understood during the appointment. Thanks, Dr. Porter & Staff, Larry M.

I understood my diagnosis
Came back for a MRI follow up. Dr Porter let me know the results. I ask for a more detailed explanation and he took the time to do just that. I'm off with a shot and follow up physical therapy. Couldn't be more happy.

Pleased patient
Dr Porter explained the issue clearly, encouraged my questions and did not pressure me to make decisions. My therapist is delighted with the summary he sent. She said it addressed issues in the MRI that were extremely important and most often overlooked.

Bedside Manner
Dr. Porter is the epitome of what bedside manner SHOULD be like from a physician! He is patient, kind, I did not feel rushed, nor did I feel “dumb” for needing further explanations. As an avid runner, my knees are my life! I would definitely place them in the hands of Dr. Porter!
