I would highly recommend Dr. Babb to anyone in need of an outstanding family doctor who genuinely cares for each one of his patients. He has so many years experience in treating patients, yet listens carefully to each of us. I will keep this review short, simply by saying, that Dr. Babb is “at the top of his field in medicine and as nice and kind of a man that has ever lived!”

AAA+ Health Provider
My visit consisted of an annual checkup along with one other health question that dealt with my weight loss. He thoroughly explains the reasons for my symptoms that have come upon my road to weight loss. He is a wonderful, kind, smart, clean Physician and has an answer for ever health question i have for him. I like the fact that his nursing staff are outgoing and friendly too. He is a Christian based Dr that takes his practice seriously and prays with me after ever appointment to help with my health on getting back to normal. I recommend Him for anyone looking for a Dr to take good care of them while under his care. He is a wonderful man!

Best Dr I’ve Ever Had
Where do I start? Dr Babb listens to my concerns and works with me to explore all the available options for treatment. He thinks outside of the box, thoroughly examining all applicable test results to decide the best treatment plan. He does not jump to the “standard protocol” automatically but treats me as an individual, not a test subject. He carefully listens to and considers my input and desires for any course of action. He has even caught several serious medical issues on my radiology tests before any specialist reports had been received. He cares about his patients and does not rush you out the door. I would most highly recommend Dr Babb and have done so for several friends.

Great doctor! Great person! Spends quality time with his patients and addresses everything. His office staff is wonderful. Wait times are a little lengthy, but when you realize it is because he will not rush his patients, it is worth it.
