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.

Patient may need intervention not more medication
In my opinion Dr Tatum may need to be more aware of who and what he is prescribing to. Addicts are manipulative and know what to say and when to say it. He has prescribed controlled substances to a patient who has abused these substances (and others) in the past, and in my belief is currently doing that now. Their behavior since being prescribed these medications have been more in line with their addictive traits than their sober traits. Dr Tatum is not willing to listen to the concerns of other family members or prescribers. It is unfortunate because this person is a very loved and kind person who has slowly excluded themselves from what was a very close knit family and has become more on edge and easily angered. We have all offered help, but the biggest help would be the prescriber not prescribing a medication to a person who has not needed this medication prior to complete tasks, and giving more counseling.
