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. Cathey is an outstanding doctor!
I appreciate the time and care he took with my 87 year old father. He was extremely knowledgeable and he has a great bedside manner. I found him to be sensitive and a great listener. Keep doing great things!!

Excellent experience
In February I went to UNC ER and I was referred to Dr. Cathey. He definitely lives up to his reviews. My surgery went exceptionally well. He is very professional and easy to talk to and easy to understand.

Good Doctor!
I had an endoscopy and colonoscopy at this practice and it was the best experience since I had these procedures. Dr Cathey was excellent and all of the staff made my visit as comfortable as possible. I would recommend them for anyone!

I cannot, in any fashion recommend Doctor Cathey. He seems to believe his patients can read his mind. I feel bad for my home town's inability to have access to quality care - especially senior citizens, whom, in my experience, are treated with contempt by this provider.

I was treated with respect and left the office feeling that Dr. Cathy is not only extremely knowledgeable but his bedside manner was awesome. He does provide information directly in a matter of fact manner which I appreciated. I'm an RN and I know a great Dr. when I have interaction with one. I have complete trust in this Surgeon. Eden is very fortunate to have this Clinician in our midst.

I was referred to this surgeon by my primary physician after hida scan results and being symptomatic with need of removal of gall bladder. After giving him $75.00 up front and 10 minutes of his time, told me the surgery would not help me even though experiencing ongoing gall bladder pain and lowered ejection fraction percentage. Then just receive bill that he wants another $31.00 for not helping me. I called the office to see if could write off remaining balance , they said NO! DO NOT GO HERE!
