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 Physician

Listens attentively and asks great questions that enable a great drill down to the precise problem. Dr Hudspeth is at the very top of his profession. Treats his patients as if they are family members. I’m so very grateful to have him as my Primary Care Dr.

Awesome PrimaryCare Physician
Ted has been my PCP for 25 years. He has been VERY intent on listening, ang giving of his valuable time to his patients. He keeps up with the latest medical information and is not there just to write scripts. I would recommend his services to any one that is looking for genuine concern for his patients.

It’s a given!
I worked with Dr. Hudspeth for several years. He has been my husband’s and my primary care physician for almost twenty years. That longevity says how much we respect and value him as a person and our doctor. We now travel over thirty miles one way to see him. He listens, asks questions, explains his plan and makes sure we are comfortable with this plan and have the same end goal in mind. I have said all of this to say we think Dr. Hudspeth is great!

Wonderful doctor
Dr. Ted is the best! In office visits, he is patient, interested, analytical, takes the time to listen, asks the right questions. For Colonoscopies, explanations are thorough, he is highly competent, reassuring. He is also responsive when I message him through the app. When everyone else is having dinner, he is replying to questions he has received during the day via the MyChart app. He is an extraordinary doctor.

Dr Hudspeth was very thorough & listened to what I said about my condition. He reviewed all my meds & told me he was changing a med to another because he believed that was the cause. After changing medications the severe symptoms went away. I can always rely on Dr Hudspeth to take care of my medical needs. He is the best PCP I have ever had.
