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.

Our family was very impressed with Dr. Tuggle, he was caring, and designed a step by step plan and figured out what the ailment was and treated it. The whole staff was exceptional.

I doubt this man has a license! He’s working at stone crest in Symrna. I had the unfortunate displeasure to watch him be Dr. Mc Stitches 2 days in a row. He just made up “medical facts” that mj was the cause of constipation when in fact it’s a laxative. When called out on this he said he never said that! Liar! Asked no questions, gave no diagnosis, claimed that there were no signs of an appendicitis when the ct report plainly stated it was NOT FOUND! He just makes up his diagnosis with no real treatment and sends patients on their way! Do not let this man treat you if you need more than stitches. Believe me driving an hour away would serve you better. He is a danger not a doctor!
