I have seen Dr. Norris for over 25 years, he delivered both of my children and I have the utmost faith in him. I love that he is my doctor.

I am looking at these old t=ratings and cant believe some of the negative comments. The last thing Dr.Norris thinks about is money. He takes so much time with his patients. He is a doctor that thinks out of the box. He is very conservative and does not go straight to surgery. He calls to find out if you are OK. He is extremely knowledgeable, Harvard trained. You are in the best of care. I had an IUD put in too and it did not cost me $1700.00. I had to pay for the IUD because insurance did not but insurance paid for his service.

A doctor in the traditional sense. Spends as much time as is require. Will call to make sure an issue has been resolved. I've been a patient for 25+ years.

My wife has had four different Ob Gyn's in the past 20 years. Without question, Dr. Norris is the best of the best. His compassion, patience and professionalism is second to none. He just makes you feel so comfortable with all the steps you take, whether it's child birth, fibroid surgery or any other procedure, he connects with his patients and family members. I recommend very highly!

Wow, I can't believe the last comments. I have been patient of Dr. Norris for 20 years. I have had 2 IUD's insertions with absolutely no problem at all. The insertion and the IUD are both very expensive by nature but the last thing Dr. Norris thinks about is money. He is so knowledgeable,compassionate, and a critical thinker. He has helped me though a few difficult medical problems.There is not another doctor that I would trust. His referrals have also been stellar. He is a conservative doctor. Not fast with the knife. There are no unnecessary testing or procedures in his office. His goal is to make his patients informed and he spends a lot of time explaining what you may not understand. He is the BEST!!

Doctor Norris is incompetent and cares more about money than treating his patients. He had to check on the leaflet instructions before installing my IUD.I had pain and he didn't care. At the end, his assistant said go home and relax. I received 3 days later a bill of $1700.Just don't go, you will save money and stress.

Dr. Norris is one of the finest doctors around. He really takes his time with you and does not rush you out. You may have to wait but he takes his time with everyone that needs it. He saved my life! His exams are so thorough. No other GYN ever checked my thyroid and he did, found a cancer and saved my life! He even gives his cell phone number to his pregnant patients. He is very wise and these other comments surprise me. They had to leave out some important information, something didn't make sense. Of course if you think a doctor doesn't need to see previous records you don't know what you are talking about.He does not give up until he has the answers. Maybe a personality conflict. I assure you, you are in excellent hands with Dr. Norris!!

At first I was charmed by his "old school" demeanor and extensive questions, and conservative approach to diagnosis. However after a serious health scare in which he was unable to diagnose me and to which he could not answer my questions, I regretted going to him in the first place. And while he was proven wrong, he continued to be condescending with my reasonable questions. I went on my own to the ER to get an accurate diagnosis, relief, and the crucial medication, thank god. Probably great for routine work, but not for unusual cases.

I've been a patient of Dr. Norris for over 3o years. He might be one of the last 'great' caring doctors left. He is an above and beyond the call of duty person and has kept me healthy a very long time. I feel lucky to have found such a caring, professional, kind, sensitive, approachable Doctor. He is not beyond asking for second opinions, because he cares about the patient more than his ego (so rare today). So how do I feel about Dr. Norris....he is simply one of the very best Doctors, in his field, around today.

Dr. Norris is an amazing doctor. He is experienced and friendly. The first time I met him he was a little rude, but once you are his patient he is super caring and will do everything in his power to make you feel great. I would recommend him to everyone of my friends and family! He did a surgery for me a couple of months ago. His receptionist is very friendly and always helped me with any questions I had. Dont let the other comment confuse you, Dr. Norris is a very good doctor. Better than Bess or Preys.
