Always a pleasure seeing Dr. Porter. Great demeanor and takes the time to fully listen and explain his thoughts.
Dr. Porter bed side manner is 5 stars 🌟. He cares about you ask questions and shows the problem in an understandable manner. The best!!
Waited over an hour to be seen, Someone should have came and told me the is running late or something!!! Not cool at all!!!
Very professional. Reviewed issue and explained so I could understand. The shot didn't hurt at all...LOL
Amazing. Very patient, takes time to explain everything and make sure you’re comfortable and informed.
Great Doctor Calm, informative and concerned.
Dr. Porter does a great job, but the wait in the small medical room should be shorter. I think the patient should be kept in the general front area until the doctor is ready.
Very caring and knowledgeable
Besides being very experienced, he was very gentle and respectful... took the time to listen and gave me options for my shoulder. If the PT does not work, he's my doc for the procedure.
