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. Tourtelot's visit went smoothly. Dr. Tourtelot was able to assess my progress, review my labs and change my medication routine. My thyroid condition needs constant monitoring since it is very unstable.

Dr. Tourtelot is great!! He takes his time to go over everything and clearly explains my treatment. I feel he is right there with me. In addition to being a super doctor, he is really a good man. My trust in him is such that I would not want any other doctor to monitor and treat my condition.

Dr Tourtelot has been my physician since I was diagnosed with thyroid cancer. I can’t say enough kind words about him. He’s both very caring, kind and knowledgeable. He explains everything in detail and takes as much time as needed explaining and listening. I highly recommend him and his PA.

Dr. Tourtelot, along with Nurse Kelly Levine, and the entire support staff at Moffitt Cancer Center have been amazing. I have always felt informed, supported, and cared for with a high level of professionalism. I have lived through having cancer and have become a more aware and overall better human being because of this diagnosis and I need to thank all persons involved for not only their medical expertise but for their positive energy which helped foster a whole new outlook on life.

Dr. Tourtelot has done a wonderful job as my endocrinologist. He's attentive, available (so much so that he gives out his cell to patients), and informative. He cares about how you're doing emotionally, not just physically. He always remembers to ask about my family. He's cautious with his patients and makes sure they are safe. When numbers start to go up, he order labs and/or imaging. I can't say it's great having cancer but I can say that I've never felt more comfortable as a patient than I do with him.

Dr Tourtelot saved my live he was in the Navy and I was Army. He has always been my Endo Dr. I have never had to fight to see him. Today I am very sadden to say his staff does not care about who I am how I know him or that he Diagnosed me himself. They will not let me make and Appt. They will not let me speak with my Dear Friend and Dr. It is truly sad. God Bless you Dr Tourtelot. I am so so sorry I have tried to see you but your staff said no way. There is nothing I can do about.

Worst front desk experience of my life. Useless, condescending & rude. I called to make an appt. and was told to figure out which labs I need with a Prim. Dr before he will see you. I said I wouldn't be calling if I knew what I needed. Guidance from him? My primary care wasn't helping. I feel horrible Moffit Dr's do not see anyone until they do the labs and I am not a nurse but probably need an ultrasound as well. He is booked until summer, so you have timeI understand policy-not the point!

Hands down one of the best Dr's I have been to. He is very thorough and caring of his patients. He asks questions and makes sure he has a full understanding of your medical issues. He goes above and beyond to figure out the best treatment for his patients.
