My Uncle used Mr Peal and we're not very pleased with him. It's been three months since his surgery and he's still got an open wound. Home health comes out once a week and has tried themselves to reach Mr Peal with no results. I've tried and left messages weekly just to schedule followup visits with Mr Peal and no calls are returned. When I speak of Mr Peal to other Doctors that my uncle is seeing, they role their eyes and shake there head and say "Oh, he's his doctor" and state they've heard about issues with him. Peal is affiliated with Baptist and well, he fits with the service you receive from them. All of the times I've been to Baptist with my uncle, I've had to clean his bedside tray as it's dirty (spilt soup, sodas, leftover cough drops, etc... all over it) from previous patients. I myself had a stoke, was taken to their ER and after being admitted to their hospital....three days later I was still in my street cloths.

Dr. Peal has done two surgeries for me. He and his staff are professional and more. They are genuinely nice people. Dr. Peal is not only the best who has ever performed surgery on me, he is a good man. I wholeheartedly recommend him.

I had a ruptured intestine secondry to diverticulitis. Dr. Peel did an excellent job. I have a choleostomy and have had no problem. Everything he did was perfect. It is now 3 mos post-op. Dr. Peal did a great job and performed as I expected. Reccomend him highly.
