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 staff was excellent. They showed sincere concern about the pain I was In. Asked loads of questions about my pain level and how I coped with It. Made suggestions as to other methods of pain relief. I was very Impressed.

Always seems rushed. Told me certain things could noy be fixed. Did not explain why. These things are very painful. I will be in considerable pain even after surgery. I have been a patient of this provider for many years, and I think he is an excellent doctor. Maybe just to heavily scheduled.

Provider would receive a higher score than 3 if he was not part of the OU medical network. He's an excellent doctor. This is due to the terrible Covid-19 policies in place during Covid. My family was treated terrible. Not allowed to be in buildings during a surgeryI had in 2021, IN Feb. During one of the coldest winters on record! Then treated almost as a criminal when she tried to enter recovery room building. This WILL NOT be forgotten. SO I can not score recommend more highly not because of him, but because of the system.

Great Dr
Dr Puckett took time to listen and never rushed. He explained my condition well and my options. He performed my long spinal fusion and took great care to keep me safe for a difficult medical condition. I couldn't recommend him more, great Dr!

After surgery I was in far more pain than I was told I would be. I had issues with the doctors office getting pain medication from the pharmacy because they did not fill out the prescription properly more than once. Calling for the refills I was met with poor customer service and a lack of concern. The doctors office staff seems unable to comprehend that they are the only way to get the needed pain medication and they are in no way concerned with the issue. My last appointment I waited over 30 minutes after my appointment time and left without being seen. Save yourself pain, stress and frustration and choose another provider.

Dr. Puckett has a great bedside manner but he didn't listen very well. I ended up with complications and he blew them off. I never fully recovered and had to go on disability. I don't blame him for that but when I filed for SSD I found that his medical records about my case were incomplete (they didn't mention blood loss during surgery that required 4 transfusions) and other items were outright lies (Said I refused to go back to work when in actuality I couldn't walk without falling and was in a wheelchair). I'm not sure if that was due to him or his incompetent nurse but either way he was responsible. I'm glad others had positive experiences because in my case he was incompetent.
