    I have been treating with Dr. Colton for several years. He's a great physician! It's a challenge to get an appointment, but I assume that he's extremely busy. I've not had to make an emergency appointment with him so I'm not sure if he's able to get you in quickly if needed. However, he's always on time with my appointments and he takes time to know his patients and understand my situation. He's very detailed in visits and takes time to discuss and review my condition, symptoms and all treatment options etc to assure that I have a good understanding prior to making any decisions with health care treatments. I've seen several other doctors over the years and Dr. Colton is the first one that truly listened to me and actually acknowledged me and my concerns. He's the best!!!

    I had my first appointment with Dr. Colton, and immediately knew my previous care was sub par. Dr. Colton walked me through the various treatment options for my Ulcerative Colitis, explained the tests he was ordering, and I had received test results within a week. He also noted that the previous doctor I had had put me on a sub therapeutic dose of a steroid, which was why it wasn't working. I have never received care as quickly and honest as I did from Dr. Colton, and I am excited to move forward with him and hopefully get my illness under control.
