Patient Reviews
Jul 11, 2023
Dr. Sides was my primary care physician since I was in my teens. I am now nearing 50 and having a hard time finding a doctor in my new area. I never had a problem with Dr. Sides listening or asking about my health. He was always professional and joked a lot, if I did seeing some of the negative reviews surprised me because I had a positive experience every time I visited his office
