Clearly explained the procedure I would undergo and in that explanation answered all my questions before I had to ask any of them. Extremely courteous bedside manners. Personally contacted me at home following surgery to check on recovery and report the pathology results and answer any lingering questions. All around class act.

Dr. Tapscott was a bright light during a very difficult time for me. He is EXCELLENT in every way: skill, bedside manner, follow up. I can't imagine ever going to anyone other than him for any future surgeries. Highly recommended.

Dr. Tapscott did parathyroid surgery on my husband. He saw him twice a day in the hospital. Dr. Tapscott is a kind gentleman and he obviously really cares about his patients.

Excellent Doctor, makes you feel as if you are his only patient. Takes time to explain all aspects of the problem. Never in a hurry. Answers all questions,No question is dumb, It needs an answer.I never had to wait more than five minutes. THE BEST SURGEON I HAVE EVER HAD. I RECOMMEND HIM HIGHLY.
