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.

Very prompt, professional, competent, patient, positive. I couldn't have been more at ease and comfortable with the doctor and with his assistant as well. I would highly recommend them.

Visited him twice because of hoarseness that would not go away. He first diagnosed a sinus infection and on the second visit chalked it up to acid reflux. I went to another specialist and found out my problem was a paralyzed vocal cord. Dr. Tidmore assured mt that my vocal cords looked fine. Dr. Tidmore ran a camera through my nose without any lubrication or deadening the first time. I asked for lubrication the second time and he seemed completely astonished at the request. He has no bedside manner and seems irritated if you ask question. I would not recommend him for any medical issue at all.

When I went into Dr. Tidmore's office for a throat infection, he hardly even looked at my throat. I came in without a referral because i have a PPO and this had been bothering me for months now. No longer than 5 minutes was he in the room. He tacked it to my throat healing after a bad infection. I even pointed out a puss pocket in my throat and brought that into question and he ignored it. That very same puss pocket has gotten worse and now I am being referred to another ENT to figure out what

Dr. Tidmore never made us feel very comfortable in his office. He was very brief in his answers to our questions and very monotone. If any of our other children have ear issues we would not see him again in the future.

After waiting to be seen for nearly an hour, he spent a total of 10 minutes with me, questioned that I had ever really had previous ENT surgeries, (yes, 5) and spoke to me like I was in 3rd grade. Total waste of my time. I've had chronic sinus infections my entire life...I know the drill. I left there with his solution of being told to buy OTC antihistamine and being made to feel like a idiot. I will drive 4+ hrs to see my old ENT before going back to Dr. Tidmore. Terrible experience!

He took lots of time with me, asked important questions, listened to the answers, and treated me kindly. He was very skilled and thorough, and I really liked him. My vertigo was gone when I left his office!
