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 was referred to Dr Harris for lower leg and knee area pain which had been going on for weeks. I had gone to emergency room twice because of the pain.. He basically did nothing. He did not even examine my knee area or test my knee or even touch my leg. He just said he didn’t know why I was referred to him, there was nothing he could do since sonogram showed no blood clot in my leg and then he left.A completely unconcerned attitude and a waste of time and hope. My knee area still is very painful and I guess I’m destined to live with it.

He is a pompous arrogant person. No visit before surgery or after. My follow up appointment - appointment was for 9.-:30A.M., and I was there early. Finally at 12:30 P.M. I was taken to a room. After waiting a young PA came into the room. I asked for Dr. Harrison, but he wasn't in the office. He left to attend another office out of town.

WHAT A KIND, PROFESSIONAL. I KNEW WHEN I FIRST TOOK MY MOTHER TO THIS OFFICE THAT WE WOULD BE GREATLY SATISFIED. EVERYONE IN THIS OFFICE ARE ALWAYS EXTREMELY NICE AND GREETS US WITH A SMILE. ANY QUESTION OR CONCERN THAT WE HAVE HAD, HAS ALWAYS BEEN DEALT WITH PROMPTLY. DR HARRISON HAS EASED MANY FEARS THAT HAVE RISEN FOR US AND WE ARE FOREVER GRATEFUL. I WOULD RECOMMEND THIS OFFICE TO ANY ONE I KNOW THAT WILL NEED VASCULAR SERVICES.
