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.

I thought this was for Dr. Foulkes, not Taylor. Dr. Foulkes is an excellent doctor who explains very well what’s going on and the different possibilities of treatments. His bedside manner made me feel very comfortable.

He is a miracle worker. I had bilateral Carpal Tunnel surgery over 25 years ago and I can't thank him enough. I recently had a trigger finger and thumb release and I couldn't be happier. I thought all hope was lost for using my right hand. He restored me and my hand.

Less than a day after Dr. Foulkes did my hand surgery, I was able to do thing with my hand that I had not been able to since February (when a different surgeon attempted to "fix my hand." Dr. Foulkes explained everything in great detail, and has great bedside manner.

Dr. Foulkes is one of the very best hand surgeons in Central Georgia. I have been his patient for many years and have always received excellent care. His bedside manner is great and surgical skills beyond compare. I have recommended him to several friends, family, and coworkers over the past 20 years and all have been completely satisfied.
