List of Philbert J Ford's Reviews
My 87 year old widowed neighbor was referred for an infection her regular doctor could not resolve. Dr Ford did find out it was e-coli in the urine and ordered home IV therapy for 21 days. Her pic line had to go in her dominant right arm per has pacemaker on left. She is frail and shaky, and is very frightened easily. The staff told her she could do this at home. It requires 3 shots of saline and heparin, and it's a small little bottle of medication that hooks right into the pic line. They said can only have a nurse once a week and handed her directions. She told them she could not do it. I can not reach my upper right arm to give myself the shots or hook up the IV either. Maybe if you were not anxious and were ambidextrous you could manage. We live 130 miles away so can't just go in and have it done . This is just not an acceptable way to handle this. I am very disappointed in this care and we had to find our own nurse (my sister) to come administer this every day. Very unacceptable

The nursing staff needs to communicate better with Doctor Ford.

The office has so many hours of operation but I cant seem to ever get ahold of nurses or anyone for that matter. I leave VM that do not get returned, regarding important matters. their system only works when you are at the hospital, i can track them down easier. They just need to revamp their patient service and calls between other healthcare offices.

Unprofessional, degrading.. sorry excuse for a doctor... I do not recommend this man. Myself and one other person have had very similar experiences with him. Laughing at us.. left this office crying... I've called and left a message and never got a reply back or an apology. So sad because his wife is incredible! I wonder if she knows how he is! And he was absolutely no help!Would have given 0 stars but that's not an option.. why be in this field? Money? That must be it!

Dr. Ford is truly the best doctor I know. He diagnosed me with histoplasmosis pneumonia after I spent a summer in Missouri. No better doctor at least I’ve never seen. He also hilarious!!!

Love him! Kindest soul! Amazing, caring, kind, knowledgeable, professional doctor. I am lyme-disease free thanks to him and God/Jesus. He took care of me years ago but I never forget what he did for me.

I would not recommend Dr. Ford to family or friends. He presents himself as a clown in a boisterous manner trying to be funny. As a new patient he scheduled me for multiple appointments to track labs and tests he ordered but presented as if I was not a new patient and acted as if I was there for a routine check-up which was not the case. His interest and level of care in my case was not what I expected. He is quick to talk poorly about other physicians working in his area of specialty. Stay away

The platforms we selected are Google, WebMD, Yelp, HealthGrades, Facebook, RateMDs, and Vitals. The analysis algorithm uses the compiled data of average score, recency of reviews, number of reviews, and the sentiment expressed in the written comments. It then assigns weight to each parameter based on the available research on how consumers use reviews in their doctor selection process. This report is designed to help identify the doctors with the best overall review score in an area and does not reflect the doctors' competence.
