Patient Reviews
May 16, 2020
I love Dr Hood but I think it’s time for him to retire. He has seen everyone in my family and while I appreciate him- him passing me off to another doctor who after multiple appointments was just throwing jello at a wall that wasn’t working or listening and even REFUSED to send me to the endocrinologist I needed to see was ridiculous. Dr Hood did however order the necessary tests and did most of what he could for me besides control my blood pressure that he felt wasn’t controllable and I couldn’t understand why a cardiologist couldn’t figure things out esp knowing my entire families history. I love Dr Hood and his staff but I think he’s over worked and doesn’t have time to treat people correctly as needed hence why I was farmed our to another person who almost killed me.
