Patient Reviews

Jul 05, 2023

The first thing that alerted me that I was in the right place on my first visit was I had no insurance and he refused to charge me for the visit. I have never had a doctor pay attention to detail like Dr. Cort. He took the time to answer all my questions and even though he had other patients waiting he didn't try to rush me out of his office,. He listens and does not talk over you, neither does he dismiss your concerns and fears. He takes the time to explain whatever he is prescribing for your and gives you the pros and the cons of the medication. I wouldn't trade the wait time to be anywhere else because this is a unique doctor that won't be found anywhere else. His bedside mannerism is above the board. He doesn't just rush in and rush out when he does his rounds, he finds out how you are doing and he LISTEN!!! He is a man of his word. If he says it, he does it. I pray he never retires!!!!
