brought my granddaughter in to see Dr. Carter and liked his approach. When I found something that needed to be checked out, I went to him and was very happy with the treatment. Thank you, Donna Glenn

Knowledgeable staff, transparent with processes and procedures and information. Attuned and focused, highly professional while being compassionate at the same time. Glad for the outcome and hopefully never see him again, but readily do so if needed again.

Good experience. Had to wait too long before the doctor came in. If I had known how long it would be, I could have stayed dressed until right before.
