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.

I don't recommend if you want help
There has been a lot wrong with TTU Internal Medicine Clinic and Dr. Nugent in the way they have dealt with me. Dr. Nugent has been dishonest since my first visit. I've gone in a total of two times and each time he has falsified medical records and has gone out of his way to not treat. My condition is very serious and I have a feeling this is tied to a sepsis issue that I had in the hospital and that he is protecting the hospital. Either way, I won't go back to him. I am almost in crisis and instead of treating me, he is avoiding treatment.

Dr. Nugent has treated three members of my family.
He is intelligent, compassionate, thorough, concerned with putting every symptom together for the accurate diagnosis. TTUHSC is fortunate to have him. I trust him implicitly and his sense of humor helps with difficult situations. He truly cares.

Lung SPECIALIST!
Dr. Nugent may be a mild mannered doctor, but he is an outstanding Pulmonologist! I won’t trust my lungs to anyone else. Dr. Nugent covers my medical history, medicines and my concerns each and every appointment. Dr. Nugent is such a gentleman and even walks his patients to the checkout desk!
