Dr. Hughes is one of the class of good old family physicians who care for the person as well as the problem. I've had him for 15 years and wouldn't go anyone else for all around health care.

This man pays absolutely no attention to anything you say. A crack in my back went undiagnosed until years later when I had a scan done. Another time I had pneumonia and he was going to send me home with no pain med or antibiotic. I had to refuse to leave unless I received something for my condition. He claimed I had to wait for the exrays to come back. Hello!!!! 103 and can't breath, pain excruciating...how much proof does he need!!!!!!!!
