Very unprofessional and no bedside manner. He doesn't have his patients best interest at heart and lacks compassion. I think he only stays is business because he is in a remote area and many of his patients are senior citizens. read more

Dr. Hooper is very knowledgeable and professional. He isn't for everyone-he is loud and has quite a sense of humor, but once you are his patient he will go out of his way to help you. I have been his patient for 5 or 6 years and will continue to be! read more

If you want to spend the day in a waiting room Dr Hoopers office is your place. I am more than pretty sure they are double booking appointments because getting more than 2 hours behind schedule should not happen under normal circumstances. There is an obvious lack of respect for the patients time by all members of staff as well as the doctor himself. Never did I hear even an apology for he wait. I gave 2 stars instead of 1 because Dr. Hooper seemed like a nice enough guy. read more

I've been with Dr. Hooper for about 7 years. I've got many issues such as chronic pain, diabetes, and COPD. His style of Medicine is tempered with common sense, a bit of humor, and the ability to listen to his patients inputs. It's very important to me that a doctor listens to his patients. Being on Medicare, I must have referrals to see a specialist. I have never had a problem getting a referal to see any specialist. His staff is friendly, and makes visiting his office a little more pleasurable. If you're looking for a doctor that will listen to your needs, give him a try. he just maybe the doctor you've been looking for. I HIGHLY RECOMMEND HIM. read more

Dr. Hooper is an articulate, brilliant and compassionate doctor. I am 65 years old and have been a patient of his for over 2 years. He has listened to me, given me useful advise and diagnosed a heart condition that had been overlooked for years. He is knowledgeable in multiple areas. I would never consider going to another family doctor. read more

If I could give a no star rating I would. He is very rude and tries to cover it up with humor. One of the reviews on here said it felt like her dad was on a witness stand and that is extremely accurate. I left there in tears and will be reporting him to my insurance company. He has no business being a family doctor. read more

I have been seeing Dr Hooper for a few years now. He went from being someone I went to see for an acute problem to electing to have him as a primary care doc. Since then, he has treated me for broken bones, sprains, back problems, and more. He has seen me for many things and the more I see him, the more I trust him. Other reviewers have commented on his wonderful sense of humor, his annoying :) bluntness, and his gift for knowing how to treat my problems. They have commented on his kindness, and I have to agree, this man is the real deal. All of the positive comments are true. I too, had a nightmare experience with another dr and had decided that most drs were greedy quacks and I did not want to have anything else to do with them. Dr Hooper has restored my faith, at least in him because I still don't trust most others and with good reason. Dr Hooper is a GREAT Dr. If you are looking for someone who can heal, this is the guy. If you are looking for someone to be your drugstore, you should keep looking, because this office knows how to treat addiction. In other words, you may not get what you were looking for. But you might get what you need. read more

The first time I met Dr Hooper he was working in Prompt Care on Forest Rd. My son was very young and had an ongoing rash. We had been to prompt care and his pediatrician for this rash already. At my wits end I went back to Promt Care, Dr pulls the lighted magnifying thing off the wall looks at the rash and starts counting, totally weirded out I ask what he is doing? He reply's wait a second. He finished counting to six, looks at me and says your son has scabies. He said he likes to find six live ones for a definitive diagnosis. I was hooked, I asked if he had a practice in town to which he said no but was working on it. As soon as I heard he opened one I became a patient with no regrets to this day! Tho continue, I was recently hospitalized over a weekend, the hospitality was in contact with Dr Hooper on his weekend to discuss my case with. The day I was discharged I called the office and They got me in the next day to follow up! Dr Hooper is very thorough with every patient every time. On occasion this can cause back up in the waiting room. For me I just try to be patient and remember when it's my turn I will get the same respect. I am a "pain management" patient due to migraines. Because of the state of not only this county but changing laws, Dr Hooper is very serious about the contract you sign and management of your case. If this offends you you then You are the problem. These two stories alone should be enough to prove Dr Hoopers loyalty to his patients. I have had many others stories in between and could go on and on, but I'll just say that I have no intentions of ever leaving him. read more

I have been seeing Dr. Hooper for a while now and always get complete, effective service. The staff is efficient and conscientious and always willing to help. The doctor always asks a lot of questions with the goal of treating the whole person rather than just the injury. Waits have gotten better and it is worth it for the kind of accessibility and attention to detail Dr. Hooper offers. read more

I read the reviews on Dr. Hooper and decided to try him as my primary care dr. His staff is very friendly & helpful - I was able to get in for a new patient appointment in about a week, I was seen on time (no wait) - I have a couple chronic type issues (not pain related) - He LISTENED to me - TALKED to me and EXPLAINED things - We were able to DISCUSS my treatment... I didn't feel rushed - in fact, he tried to get more details... I found him very friendly & easy going - very knowledgeable I was spoiled by my doctors back east - I was dreading finding someone to replace their excellent care - I was totally impressed by Dr. Hooper & his staff. He prescribed both traditional medicine - and suggested for my anxiety things like aromatherapy & told me how to try that & why it helps - And he wanted to see me back in 2 weeks, rather than making me wait a month - to see how things work for me :) It did take about a day to get all my prescriptions called in - but now that it's in their system I'm sure it won't be a hassle again :) read more

I think Dr. Hooper and staff are great! I'm so grateful he took me as his patient. He's brilliant, kind and funny. You won't be disappointed! read more

My dad went there for cronic pain, his primary doctor is retiring so he tried Dr. Hooper. His staff was wonderful but dealing with Dr. Hooper was a nightmare that I would never want to return to. My dad has actually been deppresed by his visit and refuses to return. The doctor was very rude. He asked many questions very fast and treated us like we were on the wittness stand. I do not recommend this Doctor to my worst enemy. read more

I choose Dr. Hooper due to pain and arthritis i have had nothing but unprofessional dealings. Was told he went over blood work which he didn't now hes found something which is contributing to my pain blows me off when i call. Gives me referral to have x-rays taken when i look at my paper work its not correct and now there trying to tell me i never brought this up. So people watch hes putting information in charts that never happened and picks what he thinks is important to put there. Very disappointed in him and staff. read more

Well let's see when did I first meet Dr Hooper how about a year ago I agree with Tiffany below he's very rude man and tries to cover it up with humor you got that one right he's sarcastic he thinks he knows it all and he knows hardly anything the man put me on 24 medications I have been so sick the last 2 weeks I've been in the hospital 3 times I have a new doctor and he attributes it all to the expert care I got from mr. Hooper I would never refer him and I would never go to him again three times they've accused me of being an alcoholic one time he walked in he said mrs. Dixon we've got to talk about your drinking funny I don't drink never have Okay I lied I buy a six-pack of Corona a year and it takes me a year to drink it but that wasn't one of the cases cuz I hadn't bought one in a year they call me a liar on more than one occasion he's walked out of the office in the middle of my consultation and went to another patient because he got mad at me I think he's a drinker in fact I know he's a recovering alcoholic or is he do yourselves a favor don't go to this quack and he claims it's a know-it-all and have you seen him lately he is in the worst shape probably has all kinds of heart problems to put it bluntly I don't like you dr. Hooper and in actuality you know doctor in my eyes read more

I was recommended to Dr. Hooper by a friend who likes him. I was a refugee from a horrible experience with a truly incompetent and uncaring primary care doctor. I read a couple of negative reviews about him and almost didn't go, but as his specialty is pain management and I have severe and constant arthritis pain, I decided to check him out for myself. I'm so glad I did! The office is a little daunting, with signs all around about the rules, but Dr. Hooper has some challenging patients (I assume) and he is dealing with drugs. The staff is very friendly and helpful. I was very happily surprised. I can't speak to the experiences of others, but I had a great experience with him. I found Dr. Hooper to be caring, very knowledgeable, with a terrific sense of humor and a clearly genuine desire to help me. At 65, I have found that many doctors don't like dealing with old ladies. But there was nothing like that with Dr. Hooper. He treated me with respect and consideration and professionalism. I have recommended him to two of my friends. I've had one appointment subsequent to my original appointment, and he continues to be the doctor I had hoped to find. It really took a load of my mind to finally have a doctor I can trust, who actually listens. Also, he spent about 25 minutes with me, which is unusual in doctors these days who want to jam as many patients into their day as possible, with a result of substandard medical care. I highly recommend Dr.Hooper. read more

Dr. Hooper has treated our entire family. His staff was really professional.. The wait times are long and aggravating, but once inside we were given his full undivided attention. Some say he is an oodball, If you want politically correct go find another doctor. His diagnosis are always on the money. I trust him with my kids he has never let them down... read more

My family and I have had many visits with Dr. Hooper, even visits outside the office for emergencies. He is a very knowledgeable and experienced doctor, always great with his diagnosis/help. He is the best general practitioner in the area, which is probably why his office waits are long; but so are every good doctor's. Very attentive to your health situation, and won't disappoint. He is very blunt and to the point (which I guess some reviewers can't handle), but I would consider this to be a great attribute to his work. Wouldn't go anywhere else for a health emergency/problem unless I was out of the area. read more

I have been a patient of Dr. Hooper for several years. He is attentive to my needs, concerns and illnesses. He takes his time with the patient and you do not feel rushed. He is knowledgeable in most cases. Has a very nice staff. The only negative is at times there can be a long wait in the office, although many times my wait in the office is short. read more

My husband and I have been patients of Dr Hooper for approximately 3 years. He has always been a professional, caring, thoughtful doctor. Doctor Hooper has also offered us alternative natural Herbal solutions for many of our health issues. His staff is beyond helpful. We have full confidence that refills and referrals will be done in a timely manner. Thank you Dr Hooper and staff. You are appreciated... read more

My family and I have had many visits with Dr. Hooper, as well as visits outside the office for emergencies. He is a great, very knowledgeable and experienced doctor. The best general practitioner in the area; which is most likely the reason he has a wait at his office (I wouldn't consider this a bad sign). He is very attentive to your medical problem/emergency, and his diagnoses are always spot on. Seems to have a sixth sense for medicine, and also a great sense of humor. Blunt and straight forward, (some people/reviewers can't handle that) but I think its a great trait all doctors should have. Wouldn't go anywhere else unless I was far out of the area in an emergency. read more
