Dr. Joshua Mark Mccollum, MD

Hands down Dr. MCcollum has taken care of my son since the age of 1 and he's now 18 years of age. He has always been a great Physician and role model. Whenever I've taken visited with him he's talked with him and was as gentle and his bedside manner is phenomenol. His nurse Ashley is even the greatest. More recently my son had to visit their office. Ashley called to check on him after he visited over a week ago. I highly recommend Tennessee Medicine and Pediatric. But I only recommended Dr. McCollum. Keep up the good work.

You never see him you always see his nurse. If you miss an appointment you have to wait another two months to get in! Always over books and you never see him!

Dr. McCollum is one of the finest PCPs and seemingly one of the finer men I've met. He is the physician for my entire family. Unlike experiences I've had with doctors in the past, Dr. McCollum involves me as a player in my own health and well being. Some reviews, I believe, misinterpret his approach as uncaring but I'd argue his approach comes from a caring spirit. He gives you as a patient responsibility for your own health but will give you his opinion and expertise. I'd describe him his extremely intelligent, well read, wise beyond his years and overall a credit to the profession. My wife is a nurse and she certainly shares my respect and regard for Dr. McCollum.

He's very thorough and caring. As a medical professional myself, I appreciate his more conservative side. Great bedside manner. I was in for a "work in" appointment and he took the time to counsel me in the lab while I was waiting for a test to be ran. Referred me to another specialty for a more "holistic" approach to healing. I highly recommend Mr. Mac!

I tried several times to see Dr Mccollum and gave up and went back to my old doctor who is 25 miles away but well worth it, appointments are hard to get since this doctor doesnt work everyday so you end up seeing a nurse practioner.I had some blood work done which they completley messed up and when I contacted them they told me I still had to pay, finally Dr Mc wrote to me and said he didnt want me as a patient any more,Yipppppeeeeeeeeeee free again at last.

When my kids first started seeing him, I loved him. I felt like he really cared. As time went on, that feeling went away. I now always feel belittled & not listened too about my concerns. What happened to "mother know best". I understand that this is not always true. My son has developmental delays & Dr. McCollum, just acts like I shouldn't worry. What good mother knows that their kids is behind others his age and doesn't worry. All I have asked for is an explanation & he can't give me one because he doesn't feel we need to look into further. My son is in OT, PT, & ST for delays. Dr. McCollum seems to be unwilling to look for possible causes. Also, my daughter poops maybe once a week & he says that is okay-not to worry about it!! She is often in pain because of straining due to constipation & he says it is not big deal-she is just naturally constipated-is that crazy or what!

Tried several times to see Dr J McCollum gave up and found a doctor that saw me the same day, Office staff dont care either, have a take it or leave it attitude, dont waste your time find another Doctor

It is near impossible to get an appointment with an MD- usually you have to see a nurse practitioner. In my case the one I saw under Dr. McCullom's supervision refused to listen to my symptoms, ordered a test that had no relevance to my symptoms and diagnosed me with a pulled muscle in my stomach. Four weeks and 2 calls to the office later I wound up in the ER with a Dr that confirmed my research into my pain- it was in fact my gall bladder not a pulled muscle. One day later I had surgery no thanks to TN Medicine and Pediatrics. Talking to Dr. McCullom weeks later he stood by the nurse practitioner Missy's assessment and diagnosis. The bottom line is the NP ordered a test that was unnecessary and neither she or Dr. McCullom were concerned that I was in pain for a month. I am deeply disturbed that he completely agreed with her and did not feel in the least that my case was in any way mishandled. Needless to say I am changing Dr's and will NEVER return to this sorry excuse of… medical professionals.

Dr. McCollum is a very caring doctor. He listens and takes all the time you need to explain things to you. The office staff is equally caring and professional. I trust him explicitly.
