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.

Love him. The best bedside manner ever. Excellent Dr.

Very Informative, Caring & Knowledgeable
Excellent! Was not sure what the diagnosis or action was a was just notified of some high counts concerning the liver. He addressed this first and foremost and explained what each level meant. He also went into detail of best- and worst-case scenarios and assured me that it was ranging in the best-case scenario but he would like to take more tests to be sure that he could devise a plan that they stayed that way. Excellent bed side manner!!!

Dr. Hood is one of the best & kindest doctors.
At. my consult, he was warm and spent quite a lot of time visiting with me, answering any questions I had and explaining all about the EGS I had come to him for. When I went in for the procedure, when I was wheeled into the operating room, Dr. Hood was there. He immediately came to the bed and because I was a bit nervous, he held my hand, smiling and talking to me. He held my hand until I fell asleep. When it was over, he came to my room and explained everything about any findings he found. I completely trust him.

Dr. Hood - colonoscopy
This was my 2nd colonoscopy with Dr. Hood. GSI and Dr. Hood were both very polite and professional. Every one was thorough in preparation, anesthesia and release from the clinic.

Dr. Hood came into my pre-op room and reviewed the colonoscopy I had 10 years ago and answered all my questions. Most professional and efficient doctors’ office.

Excellent Doctor/Excellent Care
I've been going to Dr. Hood for about 7 years. He is EXCELLENT at what he does and I completely trust his judgement. I've had a lot of gastric issues over the years, including 2 surgeries, and I have more confidence in him and his years of experience than I did the others. I highly recommend Dr. Hood.

Dr Hood has been my Doctor since I was diagnosed with breast cancer 28 years ago. He has seen me every 5 years and is what every doctor should aspire to be. Thorough and compassionate, explains everything and communicates with referring oncologist and family doctor. I have referred many family members & friends. Wouldn’t think of going anywhere else! I moved to Arkansas 20 years ago and come back to Tulsa without any hesitation because I know the care I will receive.

×Post a ResponseAre you Dr. Hood?
I went to Dr. Hood for right lower quadrant pain. He said a colonoscopy had to be done first before a capsule swallow could be done (which he said was what I actually needed). After my colonoscopy, he ordered a barium swallow and NOT a capsule swallow. Why does it matter? The barium swallow could have been done without the colonoscopy and for much cheaper. I believe he likes to order these minor procedures to run up patients' bills. BEWARE. Still no diagnosis and now he recommends surgery!
