Appointment started on time, saw Dr quickly, listened to my problem and started treatment immediately.
He was very patient with my son and listened to his problems with pain. He was very very good and it meant alot to my son. He explained everything to him and answered all questions. He would get a rate of 1000 from us.

Hay I have been a patient with Dr Carter's for years he is a very good doctor and a good surgeon for years.Thanks Dr Cater for every thing .
I was given some wrong information, I was told I could go straight the hospital while I was in Aiken. I did but was turned away because the doctor’s signature wasn’t on the form. Some one needs to tell Laura that she told me wrong!! I’ve tried calling the office manager but the phone keeps cutting me off! I was not a happy camper as I had to drive 45 minutes to get to the office and then a wasted trip to the hospital!! Dr Carter was very good to explain what the surgery is all about!
