Testimonials

"Since I have moved a lot I’ve seen many doctors around the country. Although I’ve seen specialists in places like LA, Chicago, Dallas, Houston where you’d expect elite medical care—I can honestly say that I haven’t found anyone better than Dr. Godell. I’ll be honest—his practice is busy so you may have to wait for a scheduler or for an appointment. We are willing to wait for great restaurants or popular venues—why wouldn’t we expect the same for a truly world class doctor. Dr. Godell is extremely smart, caring, and willing to work hard for his patients. His staff is professional and helpful. Highly recommended." - VW (Healthgrades)

I have to say Dr. Godell is an amazing Dr. he does everything in his power to help people and most of all he has a caring heart. I would recommend him to everyone I know as a matter of fact several people I work with has gone to him. I couldn't ask for a better Dr." - Jackie (Google review)

"So many times we have good things to say about our doctor but don't get the opportunity. I want to share my thoughts as well as appreciation for Dr. Godell so that others can know there are still doctors who take the time to listen, address ones concerns, and talk 'to you' rather than 'at you'. That's exactly how Dr. Godell is and I consider myself blessed to have him as my physician. I would refer my friends and family to him in a 'heartbeat' . Thanks Dr. Godell for caring." - Roxanne (Google review)
