Dr. John Scott Major, MD

I graduated High School with Dr. Major. I recently began using him as my PCP. I couldn't be happier. He and his staff are very attentive and helpful. He listens to me and takes care of my needs. I highly recommend him.

Wants me to take a $1900 drug (3 month supply for diabetes). My insurance company does not even cover it. My A1C is a 5.4. I recommended another drug and he said my results would not be as good with the new drug. I look at my medical records after the visit and he indicated he counseled me for depression and that was concerned about undiagnosed kidney issues because I asked questions about my results. Dr. Major was in hurry to "go watch the TN Vols play basketball on his office computer" (his words).

after seeing mulitple local physicians I finally found one that would listen to my complaints and has a great bedside manner. He is a "straight" humor man and I can see how some do not seem to understand his brand of humor--but I do and I love it. Not only have I been seeing him for around 2 years but my very ill (terminally) mother began seeing him and ultimately she died at age 86. Dr Major sat with the family hand held her hand as she died. I have never seen that level of compassion by a Physician and I will always be grateful for his ability to make a regular office visit enjoyable then transition to compassionate friend when the situation dictates. He is an asset to my family.

He is a very caring Dr.I have been going to Dr.Major for several years. Never have been disappointed by him .Friendly and always seemed concerned for my well being.

This was really bad. His attitude towards you is very nonchalant. For the entire visit he literally cannot stand to listen to anything you say and you can tell he is in a hurry to leave as soon as he gets there. I did tests. Afterwards there was a month where no one got back to me. I called repeatedly and got nothing. Finally I had to go there in person to get anyone to speak to me. When I get there the receptionists tells me that there is a notice posted somewhere that says "if you don't hear anything back, then just assume you are OK". That is not the approach someone wants when trying to check for what could be a serious condition. Even then, someone would usually take you through the results and tell you if there is something that needs addressing even if the result is negative. He told me there would be follow ups and recommendations about issues that he could suggest someone another doctor. He didn't remember anything from our appointment. Even during the visit where I had to… barge in and see him, he only scribbled some notes about my still occurring issues and made some tired promise to call me back about them. I know he won't follow through. The office staff could care less also. The whole operation is a meat factory with enough volume to where they could care less if you are happy or relieved. I'm at the age where I should go to the Dr. more, but this experience makes it seem like a pointless endeavor.

No one called back with results. No one answered the phone so I could check my labs. It's like pulling teeth to get answers.

The doctor is courteous enough but makes you feel like he is in a hurry. I thought maybe I caught him on an off day however, when I came back again he appeared rushed even more. He even left the room without addressing my concerns. I had waited for a total of 2 hours from start to finish.

I've been seeing this Doctor ever since he started his practice. He is gentle and understanding.

Best Dr I have ever seen!

I went to Dr Major when I was having problems breathing. He said it was bronchitis and gave me antibiotics. I felt a little better but after the antibiotics were gone I started having more trouble breathing. After the 4th time I saw him he gave me a lecture on how people try to use doctors to get out of work. The 5th time I saw him his nurse rolled her eyes when I came in. I told them they needed to send me to a specialist. The first thing the specialist said was "do you know you have a heart murmur?" Dr Major and his nurse listened to my heart 5 times and never heard it. After an echocardiogram I was told I needed to have open heart surgery because I had a virus that attacked my mitral valve. When the surgeon first listened to my heart he asked me who the doctor was because the murmur was so loud you could hear it across the room. Who knows how much damage was done by waiting so long to get a diagnosis. To add insult to injury they wanted to charge my $25 each to get my and… my husbands records sent to a new doctor.
