In patients' words

"What I did not like and this happened a few times, would be when they tell you you will get a call back. It would be fine if they actually called back ... I waited 3 days for a call back and never got it."

"Whatever you do, stay away from this medical practice. Dr. Eklum was dismissive at my appointment and the office manager was dismissive of my concerns..."

Healthgrades user review

"Dr. BARTHOLOMEW is the BEST! He is direct and not afraid to tell you when you are not doing yourself any good. He is working very hard to keep you healthy..."
