I am so glad Dr. Tidwell came to our town. Dr. Tidwell has been taking on my family's health issues with kindness and caring approach. After having the run around for years by other doctors my family's health has never been better. I cannot express my gratitude enough.

I have been trying for over a week to have Dr Tidwell refill my prescriptions. I have never been so disappointed in a doctor before. The antidepressant I have been prescribed has terrible withdrawals and Dr Tidwell should know this. I picked up emergency refills from the pharmacist and ran through those while waiting for Dr Tidwell to send the authorization for refills. He wanted me to schedule a new appointment, soonest was over 3 months away; scheduled it. He also wanted blood work; got it done. Sick and tired of jumping through hoops just for a doctor to willfully neglect a patient and to knowingly/intentionally push them into medication withdrawal. If you want a compassionate doctor stay away from Tidwell.

I think he's great. Understands my medical needs. I just wish our medical system was so over burdened so the doctors weren't overworked.

Dr. Tidwell took over care of my senior mother with a complicated and complex ongoing health history. He’s knowledgeable, kind and takes the time to address all my mother’s health issues and concerns. We also found the online Dignity Health system to be very efficient, organized and patient user friendly.

My last visit was the first time I have seen him in two years! When I tried to voice my concerns he stated to me that I shouldn't be offended but have I had a drug test recently and ordered one including one for ethanol glycol! Wth! I went ahead and did the blood test to prove .y point that I have genuine concerns and not on any drugs! I felt extremely insulted and couldn't believe that he said that and ordered it! I even had MRIs done showing I have conditions that have gotten worse and need attention so when I called his office to go over them as well as to see about if my referral for my CT scan was sent in...I was told he would have to review it and get back to me when he can and then scheduled me very far out as their "next available" appt. I know I'm not his only patient however I wish I was treated better and fairly!

I have had positive interactions with Dr. Tidwell on each occasion. He is kind and considerate, has general concern for the well-being of his patients, and is very knowledgeable in his field. If you are searching for the right physician, I would highly recommend Dr. Tidwell and his office.

Dr Tidwell was not only quite inconsiderate of my time (on both occasions) but he was quite dismissive of my concerns and became what seemed to be insulted when I inquired of his findings and wanted to compare my last lab results from my previous physician who he had replaced. He actually said his feelings wouldn’t be hurt if I needed to find a new dr and that maybe I would be more satisfied with someone else! I found that rude and insulting! We are our own best advocate! As a patient you should be able to ask questions! Especially when the dr says “Do you have any questions?” So rude

I have been with this doctor for over a year and it has never felt to me that he has heard anything I've said. He always seems defensive and does what is his best interest from ordering very expensive medications he does not tell me he is going to order that I don't need and don't want to not refilling medications I do need on a timely basis so that I have to go without several days in a row until (it appears) he is ready to refill it. Everyone has their own experience, of course, but mine has left me wondering if he just does not like me because I'm a woman...because I'm an older woman...because he doesn't like Jews?! I don't look or need a doctor or their office to make me feel better but I also do not need a doctor AND their office to treat me with so much ineptitude and disregard that I leave feeling worst than when I went in. I don't need to be preached to every visit!
