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.

I had a colectomy done by Dr Terrance Adkins. He literally almost ended my life in several ways...I was in TMC for almost a month trying to heal enough from his surgery to go home, he left me bleeding internally for years leading to an emergency blood transfusion and iron infusion, I was hospitalized numerous times due to him leaving a diverticulum with his technique that got infected over and over, I needed a mesh implant from another surgeon as the entire suture site herniated, I had numerous issues with my GI after his surgery, and I finally had to have the entire surgery redone by an actually qualified surgeon who found several abnormalities with Dr. Adkin's surgery. That surgeon fixed what had happened to me and improved my outcome. If I did not get other surgeons to intervene I would literally be dead. I tell everyone I can and he is no longer with Southwest Surgeons (who agreed he is horrible). Please, no matter what, do NOT go to him. He is a dangerous and unpleasant "doctor".
