I would NOT RECOMMEND this Doctor at all!!!! He WILL JUDGE YOU if you are on pain medication. He DOES NOT get to know you or even let you explain anything to him. He just wants to start right off with attitude and throw dates in your face on every time you been to ER so that he can get you upset before you have time to even think of why you was in the hospital on the dates. One of the dates he threw at me after i had time to calm down I realized it was from a day i twisted my hip really bad and wasn’t sure if i messed it up. My total hip replacement hasn’t went as great and has caused me a lot of pain. When I fell I messed up my right leg from one end to the other but this doctor did not give me the time to explain. He has a judgement on you from the moment he lays eye on you. Hope that you don’t have any pain issues or you will be in trouble cause this doctor will not help you…… WILL NEVER GO TO HOSPITAL AGAIN…..

It’s time to stop, and blow the whistle! Sometimes, physicians inexplicably take certain diagnoses wayyyyyyy too far. Some physicians disregard and throw their Hippocratic Oath in the garbage. Dr. Harrison torpedoes the safety protocols of his staff and patients (per report & history; attachment(s) upon demand) by exacerbating the symptoms of select patients. Additionally, he has a consistent history of noncompliance (per history) with the Tennessee Prescription Safety Act of 2012. Moreover, he has violated the provisions of the Controlled Substance Monitoring Database (hereinafter, “CSMD”). Indeed, he has evaded CSMD detection. As an ER physician, he exploits this arbitrary power, and does so with a lack of oversight, in that he can administer and/or prescribe a CS without much scrutiny. He is intellectually dishonest and hostile. I am not a former disgruntled employee, but will go to Court if I have to...Reverse the USA Liberty Act! I am legally prepared and ready.

Not compassionate and rather apathetic. He's made mistakes but won't take accountability for them. He runs this place?

Dr. Harrison was a great doctor. He can be one of the most compassionate doctors there are. He's accurate in everything he does.
