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.

Very Rude
I hate the way he talked to my son. He is part of the reason my son doesn't go to see doctors. You tell a person you would have to stand and watch them die. He was very cruel and unfeeling. I will let everyone know how cruel he is.

Doctor not available
I made an appt for July 2nd. The address provided was incorrect. The lady at the establishment that I went to due to having the wrong address called around and found out that the doctor’s office was up the road so I was able to make it 7 minutes late. Once I made it to the correct location, I was called to the office and told that the doctor wasn’t in and if I had an appointment I would have to go to his main office. Guess what…they did not know where he main office was located. So I gave up day and gas wasted.

LDL cholesterol, lipids and patient heart disease
The good doctor appears to have short knowledge about endocrinology. FYI Dr. Ketch? Lipoprotein (a) affects 20 percent of the population, or about one out of five patients from birth. No known cure exists for this genetic disorder. PCSK9 inhibitors don't work for treatment of this disorder. Normal range of this molecule is <29 mg/dl. It is recommended that everyone between the ages of 5-80 years old should be tested at least once to determine the propensity for coronary disease. Apheresis is currently being tried in Middle Tennessee. Dr. Ketch you should be on your toes to sparingly use die contrast on heart patients to damage further diseased kidneys. Agent Orange is mixed hypercholesterolemia both inherited and with systemic poisoning and genetic mutation with toxic exposures. Heart wall thickening according to medical reference can also be due to genetic mutation speaking of the so called familial excuse of inherited factors. Thank you very much. Patient sends.

Dr. Ketch is my go to Dr. If I think I have a problem. He explains everything well and goes into great detail if needed. I had moved to Florida and returned for a family visit, while here I had a health problem and called his office and they didn't hesitate a minute to get me in to help with my problem. Dr. Ketch is the best.

Dr. Ketch is very knowledgeable and intelligent about heart conditions. He always listens to the patient and answers any questions we might have. He and his staff are very friendly and I always feel welcome in his office. My appointment was not rushed at all and I would recommend him to my family and friends. I have always been able to make an appointment when it was convenient to me. I give him A+++++. Peggy McMurtry
