As I was notified that the first available new patient appointment is not until August, I feel compelled to share my experience. I scheduled seven WEEKS ago for a new patient appointment for my daughter. We showed up today on time and waited. After 70 minutes (30 of which we were the only ones waiting), I asked how long it would be. We had been overlooked in the waiting room and they had gone to lunch because they didn't even check. I would go somewhere else. This was our first appointment.
Business response:
We reviewed your complaint and per the staff you had forgotten to "sign in on the sign in sheet" and there was not record of your arrival in the EHR. There is always staff at the clinic even during lunch and they always check the waiting area before leaving for lunch to make sure all patients have been seen and cared for. Even with the above, I am sorry you had this experience at our clinic and if you would like to discuss further please call the office at 931-996-4247.
We absolutely adored Dr. Burress. He's a very sweet man, social with the adults, respectful, not condescending, friendly. He obviously loves his job - all the rooms are themed. The waiting room has a giant pirate ship play house/jungle gym thing for the kids, and the exam rooms are jungle themed and Dr. Seuss themed. He is the only doctor I know of that still does house calls. He also accepts walk-ins, so he is pretty much always available. We only left because we moved away.
We just love him! He has been home visiting mother every month for a couple years. He is so personable that we have made him part of our family.
I Over a year ago,I was having some back problems My then doctor acted like he was going to help me so he referred me to a sports medicine clinic and after taking Xrays I was handed a script that had written on it. Refer to Chiropractor and was told when my insurance company called me with the name of a chiropractor to give the Sports medicine clinic a call and I was ignored and left standing in the hall. I was devastated to say the least. So I got rid of my PCP and went to Dr Burress.
Business response:
Thank you for your kind comment.
He seems like he's a decent dr, but my husband and I are not ok with the current immunization schedule for personal, close to home reasons. The whole time I was in the examination room with my 4 month old, he berated me about this! He was very pushy and asked multiple times if I was going to get him vaccinated. How he even managed to listen to his lungs is beyond me. If your a parent like me go see Dr. Mary McNeal in Dickson.
Business response:
As a pediatrician, I always stress the importance of immunizations. I feel strongly that it is the correct course of action for a child's overall healthcare. I always explain this professionally.
