Your trust is our top concern.

We strive to keep reviews honest, trustworthy, and fair.

Doctors can not pay for good reviews, nor can they pay to have negative reviews removed.

We monitor all reviews to ensure they comply with our guidelines and don’t include personal information, profanity, libel, defamation, harassment, obscenity or fraud.

Any reviews that are deemed fraudulent or violate our guidelines will be removed immediately.

All reviews are confirmed and audited before publication, and community members have the ability to flag inappropriate content for further review by our team.

Brought my 87 y.o. Dad to the emergency room. His mouth was bleeding heavily from a tooth that was pulled a week ago. Dr. Tatford was very compassionate and made sure my dad was comfortable as he treated him and stopped the bleeding.

Went to ER for care on 2/18/2023. Dr. Tatford made sure I was as comfortable as possible knowing I was in extreme pain. He spoke very kindly, was very considerate, and clear with his instructions. I was very pleased he was there when I needed care.

Sorry excuse for a doctor. He is so arrogant and basically useless in the ED. I wish I could give him less than one star because he doesn't deserve that.

Horrible did a spinal tap on me. He had me too high and caused me to loose feeling in my leg. 20 years later this year. I still don’t have feeling in it.

Poor bedside mannor. Talks down to patients. Has bad rapport with fellow staff. (Never had a personal issue, but this is what I've witnessed working in the ER).
