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)
“Dr. Godell has been my Dr. for about 7 plus years now. He has also been a Dr. for my brother and mom. 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 have 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 one’s 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)
