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. Arcot saved my husband's life!
Dr. Arcot saved my husband's life! My husband and I currently live in Florida but did previously live in Tennessee where my husband was a patient of Dr. Arcot being treated for varicose veins. My husband had been having chest pains. We saw two cardiologist in Florida and after some tests were told he was fine. We made an appointment with Dr. Arcot in Memphis he ran some additional tests. We traveled back home to Florida and within two days we receive a call from Dr. Arcot's office asking how quick we could return back to Memphis. We took the next flight out . Dr. Arcot did a heart catherization and found a 94% calcium blockage in the left anterior descending artery. Dr. Arcot successfully cleared the blockage and placed a stent. If not for Dr. Arcot he may not have survived to see another Christmas. Dr. Arcot , Nurse Cathy worked diligently with the VA, and our insurance company to make things work. Dr. Arcot and his team at the Memphis Vein Center are remarkable!

Excellent, caring doctor and staff
The office is usually quite busy but Dr. Arcot and his staff are very caring and thoughtful. They took the time to answer all questions I had and never made me feel like I was imposing. The level of care I have received is excellent and I would recommend Dr. Arcot to anyone suffering from varicose veins, based on my own experience.

My husband had his 6 month check up with Dr. Arcot. After his check up, I told Dr. Arcot a about some issues told that I had been having. Dr. Arcot asked me if I would be able to stay and let him run some tests. After the tests, he came in and gave me the results. My husband has been a patient almost 20 years. We love Dr. Arcot and his staff. They are always so accommodating and helpful. We live about 50 miles from Memphis and appreciated not having to make another appointment and trip to Memphis!

Our experience was the worst experience with any doctor either my Dad or I have had. I took my Dad to get his Lymphodema checked and the doctor was incredibly rude to us. 1st we waited over 40 minutes in a crowded room during the worst time of Covid! Then we waited another 45 minutes in a small room where I was getting increasingly concerned about contracting Covid19, so I nicely asked the nurse if the doctor was coming soon. She kept saying 5 or 10 more minutes but it was never the case. Also the nurse was oddly asking me what did I want from them after I told her why we were there. Then she said they never saw the garments my dad had on - which are very common for Lymphodema patients. The doctor briskly took the nurse by the arm and pushed her out of the tiny room to tell us we could leave! This was because he heard me telling her I was concerned about being inside the room for so long. My dad and I tried to let him know that we had no problem with him but he continued being rude!
