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.

Great Doc!!
Polite and complete explanations. A lot of experience to share with our community.

Dr. Tucker is bright, caring and thorough. I rate him EXEMPLARY! I have done Performance Assessments for many years. Dr. Tucker consistently is a good listener, very perceptive, polite and professional. He is one of the main reasons I have great health. At the age of seventy-eight, my blood pressure reading was 120/64 with no history of heart medication. Hooray!

Office Managment
After our primary care doctor got sick with Covid and had to close down his practice we were referred to Dr Tucker. After several visits and appointments booked months in advance we were forced to seek help from another doctor because of immediate health concerns. When we went back to Dr Tucker we were referred to another doctor in the office because of no available appointments. We were able to see another doctor with a wait of two weeks. The day before our appointments we were notified that our appointments were cancelled because by seeing another doctor outside Providence we could no longer continue treatment with any doctor in the office. A one time needed visit with another doctor outside of Providence organization terminated us from seeking healthcare . We were informed the day before our visit by a rude condescending person who works in the office. We are shocked by the lack of empathy and professionalism by this group practice.

Dr. Tucker is great at explaining issues to you. And he writes down his suggestions and what to do in regards to those issues. He takes as much time as he needs and is friendly and personable. I recommend him to everyone.

A bottom-shelf physician that gives every patient he sees, 10 hours to blab about everything thats wrong with them. Which in turn, inconveniences everyone that has to sit in the waiting room while the octogenarians go on for days about their health problems. This guy wouldnt last a day in a triage environment. After i expressed my discontent with his methodology he suggested i find a new doctor. Thanks for the advice bruce, i will do that.

I've been seeing Dr. Tucker for about 20 years. He very attentive and takes the time to explain what is taking place during his examination. He isn't quick to prescribe meds or treatments without letting the body heal itself first which I like.
