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.

On two separate occasions, I have gone to Dr. Carter with complaints of a concussion, and both times he ignored the head injury and instead performed various tests that were almost completely unrelated. During my second head trauma based visit, he ignored me telling him three times that I had hit my head and suspected I might have a concussion, and after three hours in the emergency room and chest x-ray, he asked if I had recently fallen and hit my head, as his staff reported concussion symptoms

Dr. Carter is rude and does not appear to know what he is talking about. He is not afraid to discuss your reason for visiting the emergency room loudly enough for the whole department and all the other patients to hear. He also ignores your medical history when determining what is wrong with you, and will take medical custody of your children even when child services does not see reason for the parents to lose custody. He doesn't acknowledge your reason for visiting and instead does ransom tests
