Will as well he's very sweet and ask all the right questions and is very patient especially with someone like me with high adhd he takes his time and doesn't get frustrated with me and always as a smile. They all do. From getting my monthly test done and blood work for prEp and all they are always there to let me know it's going to be okay and if i have any questions. It's okay to ask 100 or more and they will be right there to answer

Dr. Crofoot has got to be best and most informed doctor on the planet. He and his staff are great! I hate hospitals and dr's offices and going to his office is a breeze. I can even get bloodwork sitting up now without passing out LOL(I always got woozy or passed out unless lying down), thanks to his amazing and caring staff! I have recently become uninsured but will most certainly be back once I am covered under an insurance plan again! Top Notch Office! Dr. Crofoot, Maggie, Felix, and Armando, are all great! Can't wait to be back and out of the endless pit I have to go to now for medical care...

Customer testimonials

I have been a patient at Crofoot MD Clinic and Research Center for the last three years, and I truly cannot thank each and everyone that works there enough for the excellent, professional, humane care they have provided me with during this time. They have provided me with a safe space and helped live my life as a healthy, happy member of Houston's LGBT+ community. Thank you, thank you, thank you!

Francisco Andres Sierra Munoz

Derek Smith and the whole crew are not only professional but make you feel super comfortable. From the front desk to the clinic everyone is super sweet and amazing. I love that it’s a one stop shop from pharmacy to bloodwork.

Duffy Iorio

Very friendly staff! Cold water available. Such a queer positive space...I was absolutely in love with this doctors office. You can have lab work done here and there’s even a pharmacy onsite. How convenient!

Michelle Bryant

Clean, welcoming, very professional.Plenty of parking. Everyone is friendly and welcoming. Even tho I arrived 30 minutes early to my appointment, I wanted less than 5 minutes before being seen by the doctor.The person (forgot his name) who drew blood was by far the best!!! Felt nothing. If you’re afraid of needles, he’s your man!I didn’t feel rushed by the doctor.

Tiberiu Levente

They do a great job figuring out insurance issues and have very patiently helped with pre auth and coverage errors. The adjacent pharmacy is ultra convenient. They can get you in and out super fast for a simple blood work appointment, but you can expect great and respectful longer conversations for your first appointments or as you need with your doctor.

Claude Durand

Love this place. The lobby is ALWAYS LIT in terms of lights and music. Receptionists are always in a good mood it’s almost scary. Also, Derek Smith > Any other PCP (in the whole state probably)Man’s is like a guardian angel in scrubs. If he ever quits I might follow him to his next practice. Been in his care for 5 years now, & he’s always on top of things with a genuine smile on his face. From last minute televisits to Monkeypox treatment, and many more occurrences - so yeah I trust his judgement more than my own at this point lmao

Francisco Gutierrez-Garcia

I don’t usually write reviews for healthcare providers but I must say how great my first experience was with this clinic. From the moment David answered the phone to schedule my appointment to the experience with the provider, Donald Harvey, I have been treated with dignity and respect the whole way. I’ve never had a PCP who’s offered culturally competent care to me as a queer man, and who offered me full support for my identity and validated my experiences. It was a place of no judgement, no squeamishness about the care I need as a gay man and a focus on encouragement and health. Thanks for that experience.

If you need care as an LGBTQ person, I strongly recommend you visit CrofootMD.
