Dr. Dotson is a very thorough Doctor. He listens to what you have to say and really cares about your health. He is a "blood hound" and follows the test very carefully!! I have never felt that he didn't care about my and my family's well-being. He is great at what he does. His staff is unmatchable and if you are having issues he is the best doc to see. Thank you Doctor Dotson and staff for taking care of our family for over several years!!!!

More than 1 year agoAnthony S.Verified patient
It went faster than it has in the past. My biggest complaint is he talks too much of the news and stuff he has read on the internet. Which puts him behind schedule. I dont mind a 5 min off medical record but when it becomes 15 min or so non-medical that is when I have a problem. Love this doctor to pieces and I have been with him for a very long time. I trust this man with my life.

Dr. Dotson is the best family physician you can ask for. He really listens to me, and answers all my questions. I never feel rushed out the door in his office. He gets me any testing needed in a timely fashion. Thank you Dr. Dotson for your kindness and compassion. NEVER RETIRE LOL

August 27, 2018Melissa W.Verified patient
Dr. Dotson is very friendly and always goes above and beyond to make you feel comfortable. I have been a patient for 17 years and there is no better doctor! He always has a funny story to tell, and a genuine interest in his patients. He takes the time to go over everything with you no matter how small it may seem. He has a very caring bedside manner, and is great with kids! I would highly recommend choosing Dr. Dotson to anyone who is looking for a family doctor or to a single person looking for a primary care physician.
