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've been a patient of Dr. Hughes since 2013. His beside manner is the best I've ever experienced with any provider. He quickly puts you at ease prior to procedures. He's very direct in a caring way about your care. He answers every single question whether it be in office or if you message him online. I've recommended people to him who were having trouble carrying a pregnancy past 1st trimester and I'm happy to say that they had there very first baby this year after receiving treatment from him before conceiving again.

When I first began going to Dr. Hughes I thought he was a great doctor, that was probably about 7 years ago. Lately though I've been very disappointed. He recommended a hormone therapy that could've placed by health at great risk post Pulmonary Embolisms. Something has changed with him, he doesn't seem to be as focused as he used to be. I had to leave after that, he now worries me.

Cannot say enough AMAZING things about Dr. Hughes. I have been his patient for over 25 years. He delivered both of my children - providing the best care through both pregnancies.I had the unfortunate opportunity to find out I had cancer from Dr. Hughes. I could not have received that horrendous news from anyone more compassionate and proactive. He has always been "in my corner". He is honest, straightforward, gentle and always helpful!
