Dr. Doty has been my family's doctor for over 30 years. He is more like a family member. He has shared tears and laughter with us. He is extremely compassionate and takes time to listen. He never makes us feel rushed. He is truly the best!

Dr.Walter Dotty and his nurse Amber are the Best Physician Team I have had the pleasure to be under the care of. They see to my needs promptly and have brought me back from almost dying. I thank God for putting them over my care, and they have a great bedside manner which is hard to find these days. Trust me Ive been to several doctors far and wide and these are great.

Really seems to be concerned about the physical aspect as well as the mental state.

Dr. Doty has been my doctor for the last 20 years. He has always been so kind, caring and competent. He listens to me and responds to my needs. My husband has had some issues for the past 2 years and Dr. Doty has always found his problem and he is so open to calling in other specialists when needed. I have always been able to get to him for myself or my husband. I appreciate him and his staff so much.
