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.

Prostate cancer urologist
Dr. Taylor performed a biopsy of my prostate due to an elevated P.S.A. High grade prostate cancer was the outcome. Dr. Taylor has been taking care of me for this as well as bladder cancer. I think extremely highly of Dr. Taylor and am grateful to be one of his patients.

I went to Dr. Taylor. He completed a very painful test, that he did NOT explain in advance. After the test he told me I needed to be catheterized immediately. Fortunately, I got a 2nd opinion, was given a new drug and have not problems urinating. Another observation, Dr. Taylor didn't really listen to anything I told him, by the way, I'm a colleged professor.

Called and made appointment for a Monday at 330 specified in zachary la, went to appt no one there. Called to inquire and the receptionist tried to blame everything on me. Saying I should have known it was in Baton Rouge and it’s all my fault. HORRIBLE patient skills and poor job of communicating issues

I was very disappointed with this MD's care. I called in one Friday morning to say I had another UTI and the Medical Assistant that answered the phone, without hesitation said, "OK, I am going to put you on some Nitorfurantoin". I had to tell her I was already on that drug and got another infection. She then asked the doctor what to do.

I had a vasectomy and just wanted to get it done as quickly as possible. You can tell Dr. Taylor has performed a lot of these as he wasted very little time explaining the procedure in detail which let me know I came to the right place. The actual vasectomy went as described and lasted about 30 min. I didn't have any swelling and after 2 days, I was walking normal without pain. I would recommend Dr. Taylor to anyone looking for a quality procedure done right without all the drama.
