"After coming home from Iraq and suffering for two years with H. pylori Dr. Dashner Sat me down and question me of my past and knew exactly what I had. It started the process of my healing after he did a couple of procedures and put me on medication that started working immediately, my health was restored. I am forever grateful. Lori Hale has been patient with me and understanding and also consult me with respect and care. I really appreciate that since I’m just an old guy. I have already bragged to several friends of their service. Thank you"
"Having a colonoscopy is not at the top of my list as fun. You still have to drink that horrible drink and was up all night but I have to say I was really put at ease when I met the doctor and his team. They knocked me out and I had no repercussions coming out of the anesthesia. Dr. Cooley came in and explained everything to me and it was all good. The bonus is at my age I don’t ever have to have another one. I definitely recommend Dr. Cooley and the rest of the people involved in my procedure. All of them were friendly yet professional and efficient."

I see a leading specialist out of state and when we moved here was very worried that I wouldn’t be able to continue receiving adequate care. Dr. Merriweather was amazing not only at listening but also at being willing to work with the out-of-state specialists to ensure that I continue to receive the care that I need. I will be continuing to see him as my local provider and my out of state team virtually, they will collaborate. Highly impressed."

"The Dr made me feel like I mattered and I was very comfortable"
"I had my first consult with Dr. Merriwether ; what a breath of fresh air!! Finally! A young doctor! I have been to at least 100 doctors visits in the last few years and I was very impressed with his perspective and insight. This guy is smart. !!NOT An EGOTISTICAL MANIAC!! He was kind, empathetic and humble ; these days that is hard to come by. He made no personal judgements on my disease. In fact he gave me hope about my situation and explained my condition. he made an accurate assessment and started a treatment plan. 10/10 people. Don’t let age fool you. Stop going to elderly doctors who have nothing else in their lives so they work until they die."

"I like Dr. Meriwether. I've only seen him for the initial visit so far but I was impressed. He seems to be caring and he actually listened both to the answers to the questions he posed and to my questions and readily answered them with patience. He also took time out of his busy day to call me and discuss some questions I had that I had sent via their patient portal app."

"I recently had a procedure done by Dr Neghme and have been very pleased with the surgery team, the outcome, making the arrangements and the follow-up with TDDC practitioner nurse via zoom (as I live hours away).

I feel that I am in good hands with the care I received and will definitely return for any future concerns or routine folliw-up."

"Dr Cluley has been very helpful in explaining my concerns with my liver. Although we have not met in person but only via telephone, he evaluated the testing and imaging results very thoroughly and but to rest my concerns.
