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.

Bring told you need triple bypass surgery is nerve wracking. Dr. Pruitt made the experience as best as it possibly could be. He took the time to explain my situation to me and my wife. He gave an in-depth explanation of what was going to occur, the risks and post surgery recovery. He made a difficult situation go as smoothly as possible. Thank you Dr. Pruitt!

Dr. Pruitt operated triple bypass surgery on me recently and I am very happy with the results. Dr. Pruitt is not only a gifted surgeon but also very kind and patient. He explained my situation, my options, his treatment plan, risks, and what to expect after surgery in a professional yet personal way. Dr. Pruitt and his team completed my operation under 4 hours. Three days after the operation, I walked out the hospital on my own power. I am amazed to see how thin the incision line is...

Having open heart surgery is a scary thing but Dr. Pruitt and his team answered every question, and explained everything to me and my family. If I ever need surgery or need to refer anyone for cardiac surgery Dr. Andrew Pruitt is definitely who I would recommend. We were never rushed and were always treated like we were his only patient and that we really mattered.

Dr. Pruitt is an incredibly gifted surgeon, and a brilliant and caring person generally. He saved both my mother and my grandmother from premature death after performing heart surgeries under challenging conditions. He is one of the finest, most professional doctors I have ever met, and I could not recommend him more strongly.
