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.

Excellent first visit
I was very pleased with my first appointment with Dr. Tywdell. I was referred from an orthopedic surgeron who felt that something else is happening with me. So, Dr. T has to be a detective. He took time to ask quesions, listened, and kept probing. Also, he did a physcial evaluation looking for clues to what is going on. At the end of my appointment, he explained that this may take some time to figure out. Also, he outlined the steps that might happend as results come in from different tests. I felt that he truly cared and wanted to help me.

unpleasant
Lies in his reports to cover his own rear. Unfriendly and unsocial. I wouldn't take a dog to him.

I was referred for carpal tunnel surgery for which I'm thankful. If this doctor had been doing the surgery, I'd have walked out and asked for a second opinion. He never introduced himself to either my husband or myself, talked constantly about his own family members and situations, had to be corrected by the technician and left monitors on my arm which I reminded him to take off. This Is a very rare, Indeed, first of a kind experience for me at spectrum.
