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.

This doctor saved my husbands life!!
My spouse had been hospitalized at another facility, and was told his heart and health were good to go. A few days later, while I was out of town, he ha a massive heart attack. This wonderful doctor fought hard to save his life. My family and I will be forever grateful to him. He is brilliant.

I had a heart attack on 5/20 and Dr. Ferguson Jr was my physician. He took the time to explain in detail about my blockages and the plan to treat with medicine and why. He drew me a picture of my veins and what the problem was. He went above and beyond to make me feel comfortable, informed and in good hands.

My husband did the $95, 3 test cardiology testing in Sept. 2016, just by the "luck of the draw" Dr. Ferguson received his bypass surgery case. We were ever so fortunate to have him.....my husband was in denial about having anything wrong with his heart. Dr. Ferguson took many pains and much patience to explain to him just what was going on with the clogged arteries. And by the way, that was the best $95 we ever spent! We call it the $95 miracle! Review written by the patient'S wife.

This Dr has a bedside manner that is far beyond what I have seen in many years. He sat down and explained everything to us in detail so we knew what to expect. He had ample time to ask questions. I think he is an awesome surgeon with a desire to see his patients recover with a better life ahead. He is the greatest thing since pockets were put on t-shirts!

My mother was recently admitted to NMMC after suffering a heart attack in February 2016. She was treated by Dr. Edward Ferguson and received excellent care. She required bypass surgery and aortic valve replacement immediately and this surgery was preformed by Dr. Ferguson . She received exceptional care from Dr. Ferguson and the staff of North MS Medical Center and is now back home with her family. Dr. Edward Ferguson saved my mother's life and we would highly recommend him to anyone.

5-Years Ago (11 February 2011) ? Dr. Ferguson Jr. while in Gadsden Alabama spent 10-hours giving me new plumbing to restore blood flow to both my legs due to blockage. Dr. Ferguson and Staff never gave up even when unexpected complications happened. I got my mobility back and more time with my 3 Sons.
