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.

A Caring and knowledgeable PCP, Recommend!

I have been a patient of doctor Harrison for a couple of years now. This doctor has seen me through some very dark times and remained professional, caring, and objective in every interaction, he listens, takes the time to meet the patient where they are at and explains every recommendation thoroughly and in layman terms. I am truly appreciative to have him as my PCP and would recommend him to anyone.

Dr.Harrison doesn't listen to concerns and assumes everything that is wrong is only because of obesity. This doctor is extremely rude and is very judgmental. He doesn't care about his patients, He only cares about the money he gets paid. There are other doctors in the Gessler Clinic as well as the area that are way friendlier and care more about patients than Dr.Harrison. The only positive thing about his clinic is his receptionists and nurses are very friendly. I'm now seeing a doctor that truly listens and is very caring but I will definently not recommend Dr.Harrison to anyone looking for a PCP at Gessler.

Dr. Harrison is an awesome doctor. He takes the time to listen, compassionate, good bed side manner, and he truly does ensure the best care. He takes time to verify meds so they do no interact with current health issues and other medications. Never had a Dr to that before. I have been a bit difficult 2x and he is very passionate about ensuring the health, he does state it. It is for your own good. Thank you Dr. Harrison, keep up the great work. Connie, your assistant, amazing.

I actually never got to see him as I wanted to change primary care physicians and he was recommended by my wife's provider. I left several messages - voice mail twice as I never had anyone answer the phone - and never got a response. On the third try, I was on hold so long I finally hung up. He may or may not be a good doctor but his office staff obviously needs some training in customer service as common courtesy is very lacking at his practice.

Dr. Harrison is one of the, if not THE, very best phyiscians I have ever seen. That is not a statement to be taken lightly; as I have battled significant chronic health issues all my life. But especially since and after my retirement about seven years ago. I feel gery fortunate to have Tristan Harrison as mu primary care physician. Dr. Harrison is one of the few phsicians that I have had who combined both excellent clinicial knowledge and truly good compassionate care. Thanks doc! Dr. W Murrell
