Peter Hughes did a sonic lithotripsy on a large kidney stone. Day surgery. He never called my post op medications into my pharmacy. I had to go to the Emergency Room the next day passing fragments. They properly medicated me. Not Dr Peter Hughes. Seek treatment elsewhere !

More than a year ago I was left waiting in an exam room for over an hour. I finally left in disgust and was not contacted for over a year. When I went back for the next visit, I was again left waiting in an exam room for over an hour. No one checked on me during either wait. I will not return.

My 19 month old son was his patient. Dr. Hughes does not have patience with small children, was very short with me & was very rough with my son. I don't feel he should be seeing children & am very disappointed with his behavoir. We waited an hour to see him & he spent less than 5 minutes with us.

Dr Hughes is a wonderfully caring and compassionate Dr who has successfully diagnosed and treated myself and several friends for prostate cancer. Great bedside manner and I'd rather have no other.
