Dr. Pridgen is the kindest, most gentle doctor I have ever had. He did my hernia surgery, my gallbladder surgery and my reflux surgery. He has completely turned my life around. I feel better than I have in a very long time! He is very thoughtful and also very thorough! I have sent several family members and friends to him.

Dr. Know-It-All does not care about his patients, just the money! He has no bedside manners and pushes his experimental drugs on people for fibromyalgia, whether they have it or not. He always starts out scheduling his new patients all kind of surgeries, that are not needed. That must be where he makes his money. I don’t know how he has any patients as rude as he is. The majority of his patients must come from other doctors referring patients to him just for surgeries. He was the worst doctor I have ever had. As someone else... read more

Very personable. My surgery was efficiently arranged by his office on short notice and was easy on my recovery. He is a highly valued member of my healthcare team and the only doctor with an effective treatment for fibromyalgia. I highly recommend him.

This man is by far the most awful doctor I’ve ever had contact with. He’s on a mission to make everyone take his experimental drugs for fibromyalgia even when you are not there to see him for that, gallbladder removal in my case. He’s rude, arrogant, and unprofessional. When he did my gallbladder removal he almost killed me by leaving my duct open, opening a second one and an inch lining of my stomach. I ended up in ICU for 3 months on my death bed. I had bile leaking through my entire body to which he refused and testing wh... read more

I would highly recommend Dr. Pridgen and his staff for your surgery needs. Dr. Pridgen is kind, courteous, knowledgeable and very professional as well. My entire surgery experience was very good. His staff addressed all of my questions and concerns in a timely manner. I prefer a physician that explains what to expect and when I had a question during my recovery I just called the office with my questions and received an answer is just a the same day.

Dr. Pridgen is a ‘know it all’ who has a distaste for any information coming from his patients. Unless it is his idea, his protocol, his everything-he doesn’t want to hear it. If the patient is not getting better-it’s their fault. He has an awful bedside manner and will come into the exam room just aiming to pick a fight. I’ve never-in 58 years-been treated as bad as I have by Dr Blowhard Pridgen! If you have anything wrong with your health; run, don’t walk to another Doctor!

I’ve seen Dr. Pridgen twice this year, and I’ve had dramatic improvement in my CFS under his treatment. I went from having 2- to 3-day periods where I was largely incapacitated to being able to take a challenging full-time job and fly around the country for work. He's personally approachable and explained his technique well. Definitely give him a try for fibromyalgia/CFS.

Stay away unless you want surgery for gerd that is not necessary. He won't listen to you and tries to make you feel inferior if you ask him a question. He told me several times he was prescribing one medication and then gave me a prescription for something else and got upset when I questioned him. His answer was just basically because I changed my mind. He promises the Moon and delivers nothing.
