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 bariatric surgery at Brookdale Hospital and had a great experience! Dr Hufford and his team did an amazing job preparing me and I’ve already lost 80 pounds in about six months. He is one of the most caring doctors I’ve ever seen and I can’t say enough about resignation how well I was treated throughout the entire process.

My visits I’m always excited to see my doctor. His approach is welcoming... He makes me very comfortable and educates me on all that I need to know and do.He seems to be very experienced and shows confidence in what he does. The staff is also great they attend to my needs to the best of their ability. I would definitely recommend Dr. Theadore Hufford to anyone that’s thinking of having weight loss surgery done. I look forward to going to my appointments every time. Dr. Hufford is very humble and he makes me so comfortable and I have not yet done the surgery. If I had any doubts in doing it.. his warm approach would definitely change my mind to getting it done. He is a great surgeon and I’m happy he is my doctor.
