I was basically told I was fat and needed birth control for a GENERAL VISIT. Unprofessional.

Review for Dr. Church
WILLIAM MARTIN is corrupt. Not only is he prejudiced and discriminatory against people facing mental health conditions and disorders, he is a LIAR. He has lied in my chart to make me appear as a patient that demanded medication and became agitated and combative when he refused to treat me. LIES....

Review for Dr. Martin
Due to PSVT, an echo and stress test was ordered and completed in early February 2024. I have emailed his office and have left messages twice asking where we go from here, and I have not had a response yet as of March 18, 2024. I'm very disappointed in Dr. Coly's lack of concern and follow-up.
