Top-notch experience with Dr. Deters. He fully explained what he was doing during my visit. His thoughtful and thorough answers to my questions indicated that he was listening to my concerns very carefully. He gave me useful advice and educated me.

I have been a long time patient of Dr. Robert Deters. He is a consummate professional, listens to and works with his patients, and is a good guy. Would highly recommend to anyone.

I had an appointment today with Dr. Deters and found him to be professional and pleasant in his approach. He took the time to explain the nature of the EMG test I took and each of the steps of the test.

Dr. Deters had a serious lack of knowledge, along with an attitude. He was uncaring and did not answer questions. He told me to "live with it."

He was very unprofessional. He did not greet me or introduce himself. He questioned me why i was there and was completely rude especially in front of my daughter. He grabbed my wrist and put his body in my path so i couldn't walk out the door because i questioned him where he got his license from.
