William Harris's Online Review Report Card

I was admitted to Mississippi Baptist Medical Center on Monday, March 21, 2022, for major surgery. Dr. William Harris, Cardiac Surgeon, and Dr. William Hampton Jones, Cardiologist saved my life. They are skilled, knowledgeable, and caring medical professionals. They listened to all my concerns and questions and answered them. They thoroughly explained all medical procedures and tests. My tests and medical procedures results were in MyChart the patient portal in a timely manner. Baptist Medical Center’s MyChart (Patient Portal) is user-friendly and highly organized. I am incredibly grateful for the excellent care I received at Baptist Heart from Dr. Williams J Harris, Dr. William Hampton Jones, and Lynne Currie, Nurse Practitioner, and the superb care Kattie, Ramsey, RN gave me in SICU at Mississippi Baptist Medical Center. Thank you for the excellent care.

Had a colonoscopy by this so called doctor I would not recommend him to any one till he goes back to school. I have had two other colonoscopy's by two other doctors and never this bad

I was referred for hemorrhoid surgery but his staff indicated he would have to do a colonoscopy first, a procedure apparently not necessary prior to the surgery according to my research. He attempted a colonoscopy when I was not given enough pain medication. An endoscopy was also done beforehand which went well but by the time the endoscopy was completed, the pain med for the colonoscopy had worn off which is a good thing, I guess, as he was using the wrong size scope, even though I had indicated several times the necessity to use a paedriatric scope. He kept attempting to force it until I asked him to please stop or else give me more pain medication. He refused the extra pain medication so I asked him to stop. He did so but indicated he would have to do this under anesthesia. He will NOT be allowed to put me under so I can't let him know if I'm in pain as I fear his roughness and determination to complete the procedure regardless might lead to a puncture of my bowel. Also, he did not take time to speak with me before or after to let me know he had found something of concern during the endoscopy. I hear he is a good surgeon but the colonoscopy, I'm afraid will only be done by a gastroenterologist, a doctor skilled in that particular field as I am now reluctant to have this procedure done at all. This was a horrible experience for me so I will be steering clear of this person in the future.

He is awful- thinks being a surgeon makes him god. Grow up- you are not that important.

During colostomy of 82 year old, now traumatized, mother, Dr. Harris ignored her pleas for more sedation from the excruciating pain she was enduring, his reply? "I'm almost done." Then continued the colostomy for 10 more minutes. Basically a sadistic horse doctor. Avoid at all costs.

I really appreciated the time Dr. Harris took to explain things to me, and the excellent follow up on my surgery etc.

Dr Harris saved my life. For that he is the best surgeon.

wonderful surgeon, explains things in simple terms, he is very and compassionate and you can tell he truly cares for his patients.

Dr Harris has been nothing short of miraculous in my treatment over the past 5 surgeries. A very busy surgeon who I would highly recommend to anyone.

Staff is better than a few years ago. Dr Harris is the best of the best in all areas - knowledge, puts a patient at ease, good explanations, caring, gentle-no hurt colonoscopy, prompt - all round wonderful!
