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.

Wonderful experience.
Dr Pasley helped me with a wound that refused to heal, and in fact kept getting worse after hip replacement. I ended up needing to wear a wound vac for a while. It was the only thing that worked!

Wonderful surgeon!
Dr. Pasley was johnny-on-the-spot when I needed him for an emergency appendectomy at Christmastime. Everything went smoothly and I was able to enjoy my holiday as planned. Competent and reassuring, couldn't recommend him more highly.

Robotic surgeon
Dr. Pasley performed a robotic surgery to repair my mother’s bowel obstruction. We are extremely grateful and impressed to have his level of expertise here in Salem. He was very attentive and knowledgeable. He took the time to explain every step of the procedure and recovery process to my mother as well as to our family.

It was Friday March 13 and I had emergency surgery late in the evening. Dr Pasley performed the surgery. He was very attentive and listened to all my concerns during my hospital stay. I had a couple of issues after surgery and his staff got me in really fast. really great surgeon and staff. Would recommend his skills.

He made me feel at ease and was very considerate and knowledgeable about my procedure. He and his nurse were both excellent and took very good care of me.

Extremely negative experience! Dr. Pasley was rude, unprofessional and neglectful in my care. I had to leave Lewis Gale after he refused to recheck my labs or help with other health concerns and go to Carilion's ER where I was treated for low potassium and a bladder infection, both of Dr. Pasley ignored. I've never experienced poorer care from a physician.

Very rude encounter with this doctor. I was in the hospital and my surgeon was off that weekend but had said I could be discharged and one of his colleagues would take care of it. When I asked if I was going to be discharged, finally, Dr Pasley came into my room and was so rude and so condescending to me. It was apparent he did not want to be bothered with me. Of course it wasn't going to be him that would have to pay 2 more nights of a hospital stay. I've never been treated so rudely by a dr.

By the grace of God Dr Pasley was on duty at the ER the night I needed him most. It's only after emergency surgery did I discover wake forest grad (works for me) but more importantly I know someone that new him and his parents (both physicians). The professional and personal comments i received from an uninterested party about the Pasley family is outstanding. Thank you for your service and commitment to make a difference wherever possible.

I highly recommend Dr. Hampton Pasley for any surgery! He has performed two breast surgeries on me. ! He was very professional and knowledgable! I was very impressed with his compassion and kindness during very stressful concerns about possibility of cancer! I was also very happy with his expertise in his incisions with very little scaring. My surgery experience with Dr. Pasley was very positive! I was also very happy with his nurse, Keisha!
