Patient Reviews
Dec 27, 2023
I went to him around 2010 for a minor issue, and he had a student with him. It was a little uncomfortable having some young kid with him looking at my butt, but that is their chosen specialty. I am a nurse, and I kept reminding myself that we all have to learn somehow. This is how great doctors like him are made. Ten years later, I went to him for a routine colonoscopy. I wasn't having any problems. Afterwards, he was very honest and direct and caring when he told me he found a large tumor. He got me in for surgery in just a few weeks. He called to check on me afterwards and took the time to answer all my questions, pray with me and fill out my FMLA paperwork. His wonderful nurse Amy has been with him a long time--which says much about him and the practice as a whole. You can tell he takes his practice very seriously, but I don't need warm fuzzies from my doctor. I need to know he got all the cancer removed. So far so good. My follow-up tests have been negative for 3 years.

What’s a board certification and why is it important that my provider has one?

A board certification represents a provider’s dedication to ongoing training in one or more specialties, including the completion of intensive exams.
