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.

The best urologist surgeon, period
Dr Terrell is a fantastic urologist. I've been seeing him for years. He always listens to what you say & helps any way he can. He does not push for unnecessary procedures. He answers every question. He has a great bedside manner. He's simply the best you can hope for in a urologist. He's absolutely the only doctor & surgeon I will trust for prostate & bladder problems.

Also good with interstitial cystitis
Great bedside manner, very compassionate and knowledgeable. Doesn't push medicine on you, and really is attentive. I was on a medicine for a few years and it started messing with my hair and he noticed right away and pulled me off. I actually feel like a person and a patient when I see him. You don't find doctors like that anymore.
