I just love this doctor and his bedside manner!

Apr 10, 2026
Was great, I felt like he listened to me and carried out his examination with a light-hearted yet professional demeanor. He confirmed my suspicions that I had a small umbilical hernia and gave me some helpful tips for the future. The blood test he suggested also led to me discovering that I have high cholesterol levels and the clinic offered to recommend a dietitian for extra help.

Let me first ensure that you know this physician's name is Brian Scott, not Scott Brian! Again, he is the best doctor I have ever had, and my husband, our son, and our son's daughter all agree Dr. Scott is everything anyone would ever want in a doctor. We are so thankful he is here in Ankeny.

Feb 26, 2026
As I say, best Dr I’ve ever had in my life. He’s knowledgeable and kind, it’s been hard going through testing and diagnoses but I can truly say I have the best Dr for it.

Dr Scott is top notch by far

Feb 19, 2026
He is the best physician I have had in my 84 years.

Feb 18, 2026
Unfortunately we were late my fault. I put it in my calendar wrong it is very difficult to get the patient out to appointments walking limited ability to get in and out of a vehicle limited have to also load and unload a wheelchair. Can't go to appointments in the morning he will faint has to be after lunch when he has had 2 of his meds for orthostatic hypotension. He has to have eaten and had his insulin and his blood sugars in a acceptable range per his dexcom. So thankful doctor was able to make the apt work.

Feb 18, 2026
I feel that Dr. Scott really listens to, and cares about his patients. He always provides excellent care, and he always answers all of my questions.

Love being able to see photos from around the world while waiting!
