Patient Reviews
Jul 08, 2023
I came to Dr Cottom with an open wound that I neglected. I became quite infected Dr Cottom saved my toe and helped me avoid the spread of the infection. He is informative, patient, meticulous and has an excellent bedside manner. The staff are all equally attentive, professional and knowledgeable.
