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.

Broken toe
Although every told me they do nothing for a broke toe. I didn't want it healing wrong cause I stand on my feet for a living.Went in and had it xrayed he showed me how to tape it to a buddy toe and didn't treat me like I was being ridiculous, like everyone made me feel. Answered all my questions and con concerns.

Had it. He's fired.
I've had truly wonderful treatment from every doctor in the Erlanger ecosystem - except this one. He is pleasant and polite and more or less timely (gets 2 stars for that), but he has had a lackadaisical 'it s*cks to be you' attitude towards my care from the minute I walked in his door. He has essentially done nothing in over a year except take some x-rays. A trained nurse can do that, so I wonder where he's earning his money, because it sure ain't on my watch. The only reason I stayed with him as long as I did was because he was marginally better than the first hand guy I saw and I really don't want to change specialists yet again. But he made another snotty little remark this last visit and I'm just done. I'm firing him because I don't feel in any way whatsoever like my injuries have EVER received the level of attention or standard of care I expect from a physician who is credentialed at Erlanger.

This was my 1st time meeting Dr. Garrett. I went in with a possible broke ankle. After they done more x-rays it was determined to be a severe class 2 sprain. He listened to me and addressed my concerns. He didn't look at it like most doctors do when it's a worker's comp claim.
