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.

More painful after the surgery than before
Saw Dr Cutshall for right inguinal hernia repair in December 2024, the hernia repair seems to have been repaired well but he did something that has left me with chronic pain in my right thigh from nerve entrapment. Feels like about a dozen yellowjackets stinging my thigh. He had no explanation as to why this happened other than it being general inflammation. He had a resident in the or during the procedure…. Did he do something wrong? Who knows? Well, after two steroid shots, two nerve block injections, 3 months of daily pain medications….. I’m having a difficult time praising any of his skills, and he was highly recommended as one of the best in Johnson City…. I do like Dr Cutshall, his staff have all been great… I NOW JUST WISH I had never had the surgery as my hernia surgery complications are now worse than the hernia was to begin with before I had the surgery.

Very caring and attentive but most of all a great surgeon. He has helped me fighting my cancers off and on for over seven years. When I need surgery I will ask for him each time. He has taking care of my husband also. If anyone in my family needs surgery or a outsider I recommend Dr Cutshaw.. I have to say he has a very good nurse she is there to help you in anyway. Thank you Dr Cutshaw , and his nurse and office staff you all are the best. Sherry Stump. Kingsport,Tn

Very caring and attentive but most of all a good surgeon. Explains everything to patient and family. I would ask for him anytime someone in family needed surgery or if an outsider asked my opinion. I want to thank him for all he did to help my husband on an emergency basis with no stress on us. God bless him
