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.

Staff is very nice,Dr.Patterson is awsome!!

Horrible!. Completely violated my medical privacy and the medical privacy of other patients. When I was leaving I approached him the hallway and explained how disturbed I was to hear him dictate a summary of my office visit for all other patients and staff to hear. He replied, "Well it's clear we're not going to work out. I will be glad to refer you to another doctor. No charge for today's visit.. Take care." Then he left. Completely unprofessional and unethical.

His staff was nice. I drive an hour and a half to see him. He spent five minutes with me. All of which he spent lecturing me about smoking. Never once did he ask me. How long I have been hurting? How I'm feeling now? How I've been treating my pain? All questions a Dr should ask their patients. I feel like I was just another pay day for him.

Dr. Patterson recommended 3 disc fusion on my neck. Telling he and his nurse I was expecting a grand child at any moment, I would get back with them later. His nurse left the room and came back with the appointment for surgery. "No! I want to wait!!" The next day I received a phone call from his office requesting a LARGE down payment before surgery. Getting a second opinion in Jackson, the doctor and his partner told me "you've got to be kidding". He sent me to therapy. 2 years later I'm good.
