Dr Bowers is the reason I am able to keep going. He listens very well and seeks to understand. He is highly intelligent and a sound practitioner. He makes accurate diagnoses with a caring spirit. He knows how to help, and he does.

I think he's a wonderful doctor. I've gone to him for many years. The only thing I don't like about the office is that SOME of the nurses are snooty and rude, but that does not depict the work of Dr. Bowers in any way. I highly would recommend!

Bowers is the worst excuse for a doctor I have ever been to. At my first appt, he walked in looking down his nose at me, didn't check my MRIs or injury history (I was hit with a utility truck while riding a skateboard), he looked at pain medication and proceeded to call me an addict and say there was nothing he could do for me. After defending myself against his wild accusations he refused care, then proceeded to systematically blacklist my name from receiving any care in the city of spfld.
