Dr. Jim Wade, MD

If I could give negative stars, I would! And here's why, my 76 yr old mother was referred to Dr. Wade by The Stephens County Hospital. Which by the way, provides stellar patient services & I highly recommend! Nonetheless with Dr. Wade & staff, the day before the scheduled appointment we get a call late in the afternoon from his office cancelling the appointment! I have a job, work full time. Spent the entire week before the appointment rescheduling my work load in order to be available to get my mother to the appointment Dr Wade's office had scheduled, 2 weeks prior. Long story short, save yourself the troubles involved with Dr. Wade's office & staff. Go somewhere else! Obviously, their time is much more valuable than their patients & family member's time & well being!!!

Dr. Wade does not follow up on his patients. Diagnosed my mother-in-law with septicemia and the only problem to be discovered, after the fact, was that his sorry nurse practitioner was and is prescribing the wrong meds without hisknowledge. Nearly kiled her. Stopped the incorrect meds only to have Charlotte try to prescribe the same meds 2 days later. We are now waiting for my aunt to die...apparently post-op patients always lose nearly 70 lbs without any concern until she is on her death bed.

My wife and I have been under his care since 2009. He diagnosed my wife's aortic valve problem and has guided her through two heart surgeries and myself after a serious bicycle accident in 2010. We count him as more than a dr but a caring friend. Very personal and professional beside manner. He is the perfect dr. To us.
