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.

Dr. McClendon is knowledgeable, professional, honest and caring. Of my whole cancer care team he has been the individual I most trusted and appreciated. I only wish he could manage all of the pieces of cancer treatment! I am in the process of reconstruction after bilateral mastectomy and went to MD Anderson in Houston for some other cancer care issues. The plastic surgeon at MD Anderson said my expanders were the best job she had seen. There isn’t much higher praise than that. His staff are also wonderful and caring people that I will forever be grateful to have met.

I am getter no ready to celebrate my 25th Anniversary of my mastectomy and the TRAM reconstruction performed by Dr. McLendon. I am so pleased with the results and receive many compliments from other doctors on the amazing job Dr .McLendon did. His personal care is above and beyond what others doctors do. He is the most caring doctor I have ever encountered. His personal assistant Charman is also the most caring and personable person I have ever met. They are the best team and I would highly recommend them to anyone. I moved a few years after my surgery and I have such confidence in him that I travel to Macon every year for an annual office visit

I am post facelift ( 1 month). Dr. McLendon did an excellent job. He is very skilled and is compassionate, understanding and explains procedures very well. He also has an excellent staff and his nurse Charmaine is an angel. I would do it again and have no regrets. I highly recommend him!

Dr. McClendon performed surgery on my daughter. The outcome is wonderful. His attention to her emotional and physical being went way above our expectations!

I used him for a rhinoplasty and was not happy with the results. The bridge of my nose (which needed repair) is fine, but he disfigured the tip of my nose (which was perfectly fine to begin with). Considering having a revision performed to repair the damage Dr. McLendon inflicted.
