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.

This Dr. Katkuri has been one of the best Dr.'s my family. His way of keeping us happy and well is absolutely what we was looking for after a 14year Doctor Change. His staff and nurses and front office are friendly and feel like home with them all!

Experience was absolutely horrible. I had an appt set at 3:15 on 8/3/17, was there over an hour with 1 patient in the entire building. I asked the receptionist about the delay, she said they were having problems. I then asked her why I was not informed since I was there because my 3yr old was sick, her answer was that they were having problems (Smyrna office). I then went to the Edmonson pk office, arrived at 4:30 but the office was closed, but the sign says 5:00, pitiful... (FAM CARE OF MID TN)

I think he is very concerned with patients health and tries to get to thw root of the problem instead of just throwing pills at the symptoms.
