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.

Absolutely rude; I had a closed lock of my jaw and all he did was push on my chin and said it was in line… AND YET I STILL CANT OPEN MY MOUTH And he refused to do anything for pain… not just opioids but he wouldn’t even do a nerve block!!! And the worse part was you could tell the resident wanted to help me but his hands were completely tied

I broke a tooth, had no appt., called Dr. Tucker's office and explained my situation. They( his staff ) agreed to see me that afternoon. Within 1.5 hours my problem was solved. What a great experience, and what a friendly staff. Everyone there made me feel like we had been friends for years. Dr. Tucker and staff explained to me exactly what to expect later that night. Yes and later that night Dr. Tucker called my home to see how I was doing......Wow
