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.

Best Doctor I've ever had.
Ive been with Dr Tucker for 20+ years. I love him and his staff. He is very personable and listens to what you need. I've also seen Linda a few times and she is also good. Nothing bad can ever be said about Dr.Tucker or his staff!

As a new patient, they entered my birthday into the system incorrectly, even AFTER I corrected them on what the date was. This totally screwed me with billing, referrals, etc. After trying to get them to correct everything, and them not doing so, my only choice was to find another PCP.

IF YOU ARE LOOKING FOR A FAMILY DOCTOR LOOK ELSEWHERE ! Worthless Physician If You Have Anything More Serious Than A Runny Nose Or A Cough. My Dogs Veterinarian Has More Compassion And Will Treat My Dog More Like A Human Than Dr Tucker’s Office Will Treat You. Prepare Your Self For Long Waits In The Waiting Room Delayed Prescription Refills Delays In Retuning Phone Calls If You Have An Urgent Problem Listen To His Voice Mail CALL 911 Because At Least They Will Answer Your Call. Best Of Luck Choosing A Family Care Physician But I Suggest You Stay Away From This One. I did not take my time to write this for no reason.

Dr. Tucker and his staff are professional and efficient. I don't know why some people gave bad reviews. Tara is friendly and calls back in a timely manner. The girls up front are very friendly. I schedule my appointments early in the day so maybe my experiences are different than those later in the day ? Not sure why the difference but I like Tucker Fam. Practice.

Dr Tucker has been my family's primary physician for 20+ years. He puts you at ease, is funny & is kind. His nurse practitioner is fabulous. His staff is now more professional, accept Karen...feigned politeness when she's being inflexible...moody, great on a good day. Medication refills are timely (Tara) but getting the medication line is difficult because its only available around 9:30-12 and 2-4. You can't get it through voicemail or a message with the answering service. 12/12/16

I've know Dr. Tucker nearly my whole life as he is my mother's PCP as well. I recently put off regular doctor visits for some time and was easily able to schedule to be seen by Tucker's P.A., Linda. At first, I insisted on seeing Dr. Tucker because I trust him thoroughly but I was amazed by the level of care, time and depth Dr. Linda took in getting my full health profile. She helped me with EVERYTHING and ordered blood work that the hospitals had been neglecting for years. HIGHLY RECOMMEND.
