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.

Well I have known Dr Prichard for about 28 years he had been my Dr for about 24 years I hope he is enjoying his retirement but for some of his patients we are having a rough time. When I was in pain and to the point of tears he helped me right then! Not on a special day next week going through a nurse who has no idea how bad we are hurting. I am enjoying my retirement and he is too. But still miss Him. Thanks Doug for helping me through my First Responder Course, helping me in the ER, and just being a friend. Happy retirement

Dr. Prichard is an exceptional physician. It's obvious how much he cares about you and wants to take pain out of your life. His staff is very knowledgeable and kind. I can't say enough good things about his practice.

Visit was good. My problems were diagnosed and treated in a positive way. I am doing much better and am happy to have been referred to the office. Staff was very helpful and caring. Office very clean and comfortable. A lot of people in waiting room but my wait time was very reasonable. Was uncomfortable to attend visit but felt very comfortable after visit was over and would highly recommend office

Yes, the staff (his wife and mother-in-law) can be a bit snappish with patients, but it’s their way of maintaining a schedule. Left to his own devices, Dr. Pritchard would spend hours with every patient, advocating for them at every turn. He’s not merely a caring doctor — he’s actually fun to be with. Chronic pain is exceedingly difficult to treat, but he really tries to help sufferers. Never did I feel as if he was in it for the money.

Dr. Pritchard is very caring and is always a pleasure. However, his office staff are horrible. His wife and sister-in-law work there and are the main issue. I have never been treated so badly at doctor’s office but in my life. I have been going to him for years now, and this problem has been an ongoing. Other patients have complained, but Pritchard does nothing.

Dr Pritchard is an outstanding physician who is very smart. Caring. His wife Robin is very disrespectful. Gave me an hour to get to office. I was required to be in court (I work in court). The judge wrote letter stating I couldn’t leave until trial was over. I had no other way to leave either as I wasn’t released to drive after brain surgery(my sitter drove me to work daily) Legal action in process towards her & she was recorded saying my age profiled me as patient. Can’t wait until she’s served

He has always been really friendly, kind, and professional every time i have ever been to his office. His staff has always treated me very nice. In fact my son passed away and his office was the only Drs. Office that sent me a card. Also this is the only Dr office that ive never been put on hold by the receptionist before either. Ive always been treated very good at this office.

My mother went to Dr. Pritchard and now so do I. He explains what an why your body is aching, he listens and spend s adequate time with each patient. As far as the office staff well I think they sometimes forget whose the doctor and whose the staff and whose paying the bill.
