I don't know where he is practising anymore but my family sure does miss him in the ER. He was always so kind and understanding even when we brough my son with cerebral palsy in to see him. he always seemed to make my son smile and relax and very few doctors could do that. He also always made sure I was doing ok with all the extra stress of taking care of a handicapped child. We miss you Dr Nugent. Please come back.

I am so glad our doctor sent my husband to the ER. No one could find a reason for my husbands falling and memory loss and Dr Nuggent looked at his CT scan and diagnosed a rare neurological condition that even the radiologist had missed. My husband had surgery for a shunt and now is back to his old self. Bless you Dr Nuggent and thank you

Dr. Nugent is the greatest. I had severe headaches and weakness and muscle aches and after all kinds of tests my doctor told me it was stress. It finally got so I couldn't stand it anymore and saw dr Nugent and he found that I wasn't crazy at all but had Lyme disease and he cured me. Finally a doctor who will listen. Yea Dr Nugent

If you have something wrong which no other doctor can figure out, go to Dr Nugent. He listens to you and he will figure it out. He is very smart and he treats you with respect. So unusual for doctors now, but go to him. He will treat you right.
