Dr. Tara D Futrell, MD

A fine Doctor! She is very knowledgeable and very diligent. When I first started going to her years ago there was a certain curtness which I see other people have mentioned. I saw that change over the years, she became much more sociable. She was always any excellent Doctor. I miss seeing her and I wish her well.

I had a small hairline fracture of my wrist and couldn't find an ortho doc to follow up with and was really starting to stress out. Dr Futrell not only fit me in, but was professional, knowledgeable, thorough, listened and was kind. She immediately got more xrays, put me in an "exos" (like a cast but removable and 100 x's better than the velcro brace I had on), and had a plan in place for proper healing. I can't thank her enough!!

Dr. Futrell is thorough, knowledgeable and dedicated to patient success. I am most satisfied with her expertise and diligence as she helped me return to activities many doctors, over many years, couldn’t accomplish. She’s fantastic!

Dr. Futrell is a knowledgable professional. She asks all the questions that are relevant to the issues you come to talk about, and has treated each one appropriately and efficiently. Be sure to let the secretary know ALL of the issues you want addressed, so you get the right length of time to see her; the practice is very full and fast moving and works hard to stick to their schedule.

This doctor is one in a thousand. She actually knew what I was talking about and treated my complex bladder infection properly. Over many many years, she is a first. She keeps up with the literature obviously, and I did not have to beg her for appropriate treatments or educate her about chronic cystitis. She was very thorough and proactive in following up in many ways. I'm surprised and delighted to find a doctor this good. I have had so many frustrating experiences with this problem I can hardly believe my good luck this time. Yes, she seems a bit cool at first, but I will take competency first and warm fuzzy later. She does warm uo.

Dr. Futrell is caring and conscientious. 15 minutes is never a lot of time, but she takes the time to answer my question and always follows up if more time or another appointment is needed. I would recommend Dr. Futrell to anyone.

Don't bother to tell her what your issues are. She will tell you. Very curt manner, belittling, and condescending. And heaven forbid, don't be a smoker or overweight or into alternative therapies. I cried in my car in the parking lot when I left.

She has a very poor interaction with patients, trying to rush through the appointments. She is very cold and burnt out already. I will never go to her again. I am a healthcare professional.

While pregnant I met with Dr. Futrell and went over my very specific desires for the care of my infant. I was rather far along in my pregnancy due to a change in doctors where I was planning to take my child. She was receptive to all of my desires and I left there feeling rather comfortable and relieved. Everything changed in the hospital where she was a day late to come and release my son, she claimed she did not agree with any of my care plan, and scolded me for the way my son was born. Needless to say I immediately said she was not permitted near my son again and I ended up having a random on call doctor release my son from the hospital, and now am with a wonderful pediatrician. My only advice is to beware, she seems to be willing to say what she needs to get a patient and then change her tune completely. Apparently people are just dollar signs to her.

Dr. Futrell is great. She is very proactive about my care, listens well and offers me multiple approachs to improving my health rather than just writing a prescription. She reviewed my family history as well (heart disease) and checks me for that stuff each time. The staff is great too and I never have waited for than 5-10 minutes.
