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.

Dr Patterson is very kind and patient. I was impressed my how well he described my options, taking the time to explain risks, recovery time and activities allowed after surgery. I did not feel rushed or that Dr. Patterson was in a hurry. Very nice man.

Exceptional results
Dr Patterson cares about you his patient. He asked if I had pain after eating chicken wings or any other fried food since surgery. He warned me that I may still not be able to eat that type of food. I followed the soft food diet for first week after surgery, gradually adding normal foods. I had my wings and first time in quite a while I enjoyed them and had no issues afterwards! A great relief. I normally eat a more healthy diet but do allow myself a treat occasionally. He examined my incision and was pleased. Warned me about NOT lifting anything over 15 lbs for a month to avoid a hernia. Very pleased with Dr Patterson and my surgery.

One of the best doctors I ever had
he treats you like a human being and explains what is going on in terms. You can understand where is most actors act like a robot and think you’re supposed to understand what they are talking about. I have never had a doctor like him, explained everything clearly and makes you feel like he actually wants to help you. I would recommend him even over my. Personal doctor. I have had two surgeries done by him, and if I had to have anymore, I would go back to him. I have never had a doctor with a bedside manner as he has.

I didn't feel rushed. He took his time to explain.
He was very thorough in explaining my test results and how the gallbladder is supposed to function. He used a chart for better visualization. I had no questions because he covered everything. He is very personable. I felt very comfortable as if I was conversing with a friend or family member.

Friendly & professional. Took the time to listen to my symptoms and then we devised a way forward together. He did not force the surgical option. He also explained what to watch for which would indicate further action was needed. Everyone was just great!!
