Dr. David Duane Tanner, MD

I have been going to Clinic for Overb15 Yrs Now. Dr. Tanner and The Staff Have always been Great...Besides keeping a Watch on my Asthma...I always Enjoy Dr. Tanners Dry sense of Humor. I'm Gonna Miss that and Himself...

I experienced outstanding medical care yesterday that should be a standard for other practices in Atlanta. Dr. David Tanner and his assistants delivered smart, insightful, and efficient care. Thank you for this gem of a practice. And they all did the rarest of services-- they listened!

I was referred to Dr Tanner over 30 years ago for my asthma, which was at the time out of control. Dr Tanner was able to manage my symptoms long term and I have few problems these days. When I do have an issue, he is caring and thoughtful and is able to bring my symptoms under control. Under his care I have not required hospitalization again.

I have seen Dr Tanner for a long time. He is on time, spends time, really thinks about me and tells.me what he thinks. He is intelligent, very experienced and 'keeps up' on new treatments.

I have been seeing Dr. Tanner for about a year. He has a lot of patients. I am very wary of Dr. Tanner because he do not spend a lot of time with you. If you see him about every 3 months you have to update him on your last visit because he do not remember what he told you to do or take. I do not know whether he uses a medical file or computer to pull your record up. That is why I am very skeptical of him. I do not have the trust in him. I did get well with my allergy but it took several visits and different medicines. I recommended another patient and she came for several visits and decided not to go back to see Dr. Tanner. She would not tell me why she will not go back. The wait is also too long to see him.

I WOULD GIVE HIM ZERO STARS. HE WOULD NOT KNOW WHAT THEY ARE ANYWAY. THERE COMES A TIME IN EVERYONE'S LIFE WHEN YOU REALIZE YOU DON'T HAVE A CLUE AND YOUR PRACTICE AND KNOWLEDGE ARE DONE! DR. TANNER NEEDS TO REALIZE THIS, BEFORE HE MAKES MORE PATIENTS SICK.

I have seen Dr. Tanner 2 times. He uses a labtop when he is talking to you about your allergy or asthma symptoms. He listen to every thing that you say and inputs it into the computer he carries with him. Then he will examine your breathing, check your mouth and ears. He also will send you for blood test and drags. He only see patients 2 days at the Buckhead office. So time is real important to him and the amount of patients he sees. He sends your prescriptions to the pharmacy online. So you have to check the drugstore more than 1 time. What I do not like is that he do make sure you have enough prescriptions for 3 to 6 months if you have chronic asthma or allergy. He is a good doctor, very mild mannered. That is why I referred other people to him. His staff is very nice.

Dr Tanner wait time is very disappointing. This is not my first experience with a long wait time. Based on my experience and other reviews He clearly runs his practice this way on purpose. As a busy professional , like Dr Tanner, it is disappointing to be treated this way. I can only think that Perhaps the motivation for long wait times is driven by revenue goals rather than customer service objectives.

Dr. Tanner might be a good doctor - I don't know. After waiting nearly 2 hours for my appointment I didn't care to find out. Seriously, 2 hours - no exaggeration. I understand a doctor can run behind for one reason or another but, have your staff communicate this to your patients, offer to reschedule - something! Dr. Tanner's front desk staff cares just as much about your time as he does.

Waiting time is very long even though you have an appointment.Visited couple of times, and the wait time was more than an hour.
