Dr. Charles R Horton JR., MD

He is the most incompetent physician I can imagine--worldwide. He knows nothing about medicine and actually pronounces non truths. He is dangerous!!! Truly dangerous!!! I warn all of you that he is horrid and ignorant. He gives wrong diagnosis. i am not kidding. Please don't go there. Your child's life could be in danger!!!!!!!!!!!

This man should never be able to practice medicine ever. If your child is healthy and needs his or her shot he's the man but if you actually have a sick child you're better off going to the emergency room or finding another doctor. He is a do nothing physician and everything is a virus to him no matter what. He is dangerous if you have a sick child because he will put your child in harms way by the do nothing approach. I am telling you he is horrid

Last summer at our daughter's 18 month checkup, Dr. Horton found a mass in her abdomen. He insisted we have an ultrasound the next day to determine what might be going on. As it turns out, it was a cancerous tumor on her right kidney. We were sent to St Jude in Memphis almost immediately. Because of Dr. Horton, they were able to remove the tumor and diagnose her as stage 1. Throughout the 4 mos if chemo she had, we constantly encountered doctors and nurses who said how often these types of tumors are missed because doctors just assume it's nothing and ignore them. Dr Horton is very conservative. If you are looking for a pediatrician who will write antibiotics every time you go in with a sick child, it's not him. But I trust his judgment completely and will never question him, as we literally owe him our daughter's life. He is a wonderful, caring Doctor who has taken care of both of my girls for the past 4 years and will take care of my 3rd due this summer. I wouldn't trust any… other pediatrician in Huntsville more than him.

Love Dr. Horton

As a grandmother of my 1st twin granddaughters, I feel completely at ease that my daughter and son-in-law have chosen Dr. Horton as their pediatrician. They safe is so kind and supportive. Thank you all.

I presented my child with a fever and other flu like symptoms on Monday morning. Symptoms started late Saturday (with in the 48 hour window for prescribing Tami-flu). He came in and said that he doesn't like to give Tami-flu. No further explanation. We walked out of the office without even a test for the flu and he said she could go to school next day if she felt better. My child grew worse over night so we took her to another facility and they diagnosed her with the flu. Then we were charged from Dr Horton and also had to pay the other office. I challenged his charge and asked for him to call me and he never has. POOR service. Staff is fabulous but lousy Doctor.

Dr. Horton isn't an "alarmist" as I call them - those doctor's that want to push drugs or get you worried for no reason. He's calm, gentle, thorough, and knowledgeable on the latest topics. He can keep even the most worrisome mother at ease :)

Dr Horton is an amazing Dr! Our insurance has changed and I'm in process of looking for a new dr... I don't think I will find one I like more than him!

My children have been seeing Dr. Charles Horton for a few months now and in those months he has never done anything for either of my children. My son went in burning up with fever and they never took his temp, they never do, he doesn't get weighed, or anything. I work for a doctor and this is not how things have ever been done that I have seen. Not a doctor that I would recommend.

Dr. Horton was so nice to take the extra time to explain things to me being a new mom. I appreciate that he saw my baby in the hospital when she was born and he was not even on call. That shows going above and beyond in my opinion.
