Dr. Ashworth seems competent and reasonable but his office staff is rude and obnoxious and don't know their jobs very well.

I have been a patient of Dr. Ashworth for all of his 36 Years of practice. He is a very understanding Dr. and gives you the best of care. I guess you could say I will have a hard time finding another Dr. as good as he is. He is moving to a practice that may be to far for me to travel. Thank You for being my Dr. and Friend for so many years.

I have been going to Dr. Ashworth for several years now, and feel completely satisfied that he is serving my health needs completely. When issues came up beyond the scope of his practice, he has sent me to specialists that were able to address those problems.
