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.

Real “Care” in Healthcare.
Dr. Connaughton has always taken the time to really listen to my health concerns as well as the time to explain what can be done about it and the pros and cons involved. Managed Healthcare as it is described in this day and age is neither managed nor healthcare in some cases. However, with Dr. Connaughton , you still get REAL managed healthcare.

Thank you Dr Connaughton
Your attention to detail as a patient saved my life! So grateful for your recognizing I needed emergency surgery. I had been in the hospital for 2 days and you saw my name merely by chance as a previous referal and came to visit me and made immediate diagonosis. Thanks for visiting every night after surgery, sometimes after midnight to see how I was doing. Thank you.

amazing doc
Dr. Connaughton has fixed my fistula several times over the last three years. He first fixed my fistula while I was in the hospital 6 months straight for another problem, and he brought me good news when I was only hearing bad news from my other health issue. I believe that by him fixing my fistula when I was going through medical hell, he brought me the hope that I needed to make it through that time. He has always been kind and made me feel comfort and comfortable when I really needed it. I am saddened by his departure, and I wish him well on his next chapter, truly.

He was my surgeon in Denton Texas. Could you please ask him if he knows a surgeon that removes Lymphocele? I respect his knowledge. I have been having trouble finding the correct Dr. Thank you, Cheryl Steele ( You are truly missed)

Dr. Connaughton told my husband he had to stop smoking or he was going to lose his hand. (Artery in hand clotted off) His talk was 13 years ago and my husband is still smoker free. I am forever thankful that he took the time to say this to his patient.

Dr. Connaughton and staff are very professional, compassionate and friendly. He spends all the time you need with him to answer questions and concerns and the nurses are quick to followup with prescription refills and scheduling of follow-up appointments. I highly recommend this practice to anyone needing top quality care.

Dr. Connaughton and his staff are my go-to folks for vascular issues. I was very impressed with Dr. Connaughton's knowledge, communication skills and the time he took to explain my situation and his recommendation for going forward. I have complete trust and peace going forward in our relationship. He and his staff are a blessing to me and my family.

Dr. Connaughton was wonderful. When my surgeon failed to take me seriously about complications, Dr. Connaughton did. His office worked me in quickly & were incredibly kind & helpful. Dr. Connaughton read my scans carefully & found the issue no one else did, & he took extra time out of his extremely busy day to explain exactly what he found. The contrast between my operating surgeon's treatment & Dr. Connaughton's is night & day; I wish I'd gone to Connaughton to begin with--and next time I will!
