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.

Dr Taylor is very caring and knowledgeable. Explained the procedure, what to expect, and what the outcome would be. Met with me every week during radiation and ask how things were going and if I had any questions. Very thankful that he was my doctor.

I was very pleased with my experience with Dr Taylor and his associates. I was treated with radiation for a spot on my lung and the treatment was successful. The entire staff was exceptional, working like a well lubricated machine, with a healthy dose of compassion.

I was diagnosed with prostate cancer in March 2020. My visits with Dr. Taylor, the staff and treatments were top notch. Very friendly and caring staff. Dr. Taylor met with me once a week to go over my treatments and discuss any concerns I may have. I completed my radiation treatments in December 2020 and have follow up visits with Dr. Taylor every 3 months. I feel great!! I am very pleased with everything at Texas Oncology and would recommend their services.

Dr. Bill Taylor is an excellent Radiation Oncologist with years of experience and a bedside manner that is unmatched. I'm writing this review on behalf of my husband and our experience with Dr. Taylor guiding us through his pancreatic cancer. Pancreatic cancer is unforgiving, leaving no one behind. Dr. Taylor made our journey one of peace. His voice calmed our fears of what was to come. He was always there, returning our calls despite the hour. These day's you can rarely get five minutes of a physicians' time, much less, a phone call. Dr. Taylor goes beyond the call of duty, truly loves practicing medicine, his staff, and his patients. We will always be thankful to him and Texas Oncology for getting us through the other side. God Bless both him and his family. It hurts, only because it was a relationship worth having.

I went to my first appt & they had me sign a paper stating that if I don't pay my bill by 60 days that they would call me everyday. Then I saw the Dr & he said to me "What school did you get your doctor licenses from?" because I refused to take Tamoxifen because I'm menopausal. I was making my first radiation appt the lady to my right ask to see my financial info, then my ins & said they have to know how I'd pay my bill before they would start any treatments! I'm just money to them not a person!
