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.

Very pleasant and easy to talk to.
Quite nervous at first not knowing what to expect, but Dr. Hightower eased my fears quickly and put at ease very quickly. No double talk or much in the way of medical jargon. I can’t wait to get started with my treatments.

The perfect doctor for handling my prostate cancer
Knows his science: was able to explain the pros and cons of the treatment in such a way as to calm my panic. I was surprised how much time he spent with my wife and I explaining what was coming next and what obstacles we had to overcome. He obviously had studied my case in detail because he was familiar with the facts and history and could speak about them: how we got to where we are and where we were going with the radiation therapy. Highly highly recommended. Coordinated very well with my urologist. Dr. Hightower's admin staff is very professional and helpful.

Fabulous!
I was sent to Dr Hightower’s office after my laryngectomy in 2017. He and His staff were top rate, bar none. I received radiation five days a week, for just about six weeks. I had next to NO problems (other than my own worries and angst), or adverse reactions during or after my treatment time. I recommend Dr Hightower 1,000 percent. Wish every Doctor and their staff were as kind, thorough, professional and caring. Dr Hightower should become a professor, when He retires from Radiaology. I can not thank them enough, for EVERYTHING. mrw

I was diagnosed with stage 2 breast cancer and was treated by Dr. Hightower with radiation. He is a caring and compassionate physician who spends the time needed to discuss your concerns and the procedure that will be followed. I cannot recommend him highly enough. He was always available for questions any day or time. He is very professional, knowledge, and efficient. His staff is also very focused, friendly and courtesy.

I was (radiation) treated by Dr. Hightower August 2006 for prostate cancer. Have been doing great since then. Dr. Hightower was recommended to me by a neighbor. I am highly recommending him if treatment is needed. A wonderful Doctor and gentleman as well.

My mother was diagnosed with a stage 4 cancer that was not curable and was treated by Dr. Hightower for 1 yr. I feel blessed that Dr.Hightower was her Oncologist. He is a caring and compassionate physician who spends the time needed to discuss the concerns and welfare of the patient and family. I cannot recommend highly him enough. When I needed to speak with him, he returned my call even on a weekend, and reassured me. His staff maintains the same high standard of efficiency and courtesy.
