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.

Wonderful doctor with phenomenal bedside manner
Hands down the best doctor I’ve ever had. I’ve been seeing him for 15+ years and has never let me down. I’ve seen him countless times throughout the years and he’s been committed to keeping me in good health.

Thorough, Compassionate and Skilled
The decision to make Dr. Vargas my primary care doctor was one of the best decisions I've ever made. Not only is he a wonderful listener, he is genuinely engaged in my appointments. Not appearing to be distracted or hurried. On top of that, Dr. Vargas is thorough in his evaluations of my health, with an attention to detail that is often hard to find these days. He is a true diagnostician. I have utmost confidence in him and trust his judgement without reservation. I believe you will too.

Dr. Vargas is our family provider for our health care needs and we could not have found a better doctor and staff than at Sterling. We are a small family but have a spread in years and he always asks us about different family members, he cares. I would recommend him to ny one.

I have been a patient of Dr. Vargas for over 15 years. He has never failed to treat me or see me any time there was a need. He has called after hours to follow up to make sure I was doing ok. When he felt a need to send me to a specialist he quickly did so and I have to say to the very best vascular surgeon in the southeast. That decision along with the skillful hands of Dr Patrick Ryan and the grace of God, actually saved saved amputation of both legs from a blockage in my heart causing no blood flow to my lower body and ultimately saved my life. I give thanks every day for his attentiveness and his genuine caring for his patients. He is very highly recommended as a primary care physician in Nashville.
