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 was kicked out her office...I still do know why
Dr. Lori (Lorelie) Fulton was terrible, from the time she walked in the door. Dr. Fulton came in with an attitude but I did not highlight it or acknowledge it. After her rude comments and cutting me off while speaking, I continued to maintain my posture. However, I knew something was wrong. Long story short, after kindly declining a medication that gave me negative side effects, her body language had become sharp and aggressive. I concernly asked, 'Are you okay?' (because I was no longer comfortable) and she yelled, flipped out, and stormed out of the room. I heard down the hall Dr. Fulton tell the nurse that I said that she had an attitude. That was not true. The nurse comes in and says, 'I don't believe you and Dr. Fulton will mesh well, and I believe you should be referred to another doctor and we will be declining to see you today. We will not charge you for your visit.' There is more to this altercation, but I'm limited by characters in this little box. I'm completely UNSATISFIED!

C-Section Queen of the South
Seems caring, respectful of birth plans but does not follow through! Literally everyone I know who has been an OB patient of Dr. Fulton has been subjected to a c-section.

Best GYN ever!
Dr. Fulton took her time to listen to my concerns. My first appointment with Dr. Fulton was the most thorough of any initial appointment with any medical specialist. She was determined to find the cause of my problem which other GYNs had been unable to solve. My problem did require surgery, which Dr. Fulton performed. My surgery went smoothly and I had little to no pain afterwards. If you need a GYN who is super compassionate, an expert in her field, and a gifted surgeon, I highly recommend Dr. Lori Fulton!

I moved back to MS from TX just to receive care from Dr. Fulton throughout my extremely high-risk, complicated pregnancy. That is a testament to the amount of faith and trust that I have in her abilities. I would trust NO ONE other than Lori Fulton with mine or my child’s life. She is a seasoned, gifted surgeon who can handle the complex cases that other OB’s cannot.

I’ve been a patient of Dr Fulton’s for 20 years. She has always listened to my concerns and questions and responded by explaining any options or procedures. I have always felt comfortable enough to talk with her. Love her! Her staff has always been as helpful as they can be.

Dr. Fulton isn't the doctor she once was. She's grown to be a cold, almost bitter old woman ! She doesn't explain procedures, nor care if you are ok... just go along nicely with her plan to experiment and try New procedures on you for pharmaceutical companies and her toto gain financially !!! Absolutely NO BED SIDE MANOR !!! OFFICE STAFF VERY INEFFICIENT & RUDE AS WELL !!!!!!!!

Dr. Fulton has been my doctor for many years. when I told her I was trying to get pregnant and that I suffer from bipolar disorder, instead of helping me by giving me suggestions, etc. She flipped out when she found out I had not stopped taking my medication. Then she exclaimed that I was in a manic state when I was not, when I started getting upset. She ended up triggering me so bad that I had a full blown panic attack in her office and I haven't tried to get pregnant since. It was horrible!??

Dr. Fulton is great at being a doctor although the bedside manners can come off condescending at times. She will get to the problem. The staff at the front desk was great however, the billing/patient accounts person treated us as if we had ruined his day by stopping by to pay or setting up a payment plan. He would not return calls and was rude when we called like it was a total inconvenience. Absolutely horrible people skills - not the entire office but enough to say bye bye!

I had a very bad experience with Dr. Fulton once I became pregnant. I began to experience severe pain. Her staff took it lightly and made rude comments like you can't sit down. Dr. Fulton did not even examine me to see what was the issue. I could not even sit down at my desk at work but they refused to take me off my job. I had to find another doctor who found out what was the issue and treated me with better respect.
