Stephanie S. replied:
Best PCP ever is Dr Sonal Gupta in Franklin, Heritage Associates. She is brilliant, thorough, and makes copious notes in your EMR. Her detail shocked my OB/GYN when she opened my EMR.
Krysti S. replied:
There's a new(ish) place out by sonic. Middle Tennessee Primary Care. 799-4141
Betty L. replied:
I've got nothing but good reviews for Dr. John Manning and his staff at Middle Tn Primary Care! They take care of my whole family! We love them!
Linda H. replied:
Dr Roland Luplow Dickson Medical the best !615-446-2708
Tammy W. replied:
Dr. Julie Perrigin in Dickson is great! The downfall is that she takes her time with her patients so you'll have to wait most times you see her. 446-0522
Looking for doctor suggestions that don't require a referral from your primary care.

Ashlie W. replied:
Call Seven Spring Ortho in Spring Hill. My son has been numerous times for a broken hand. Fast Pace diagnosed, no meds. They can send him to therapy and give him a brace.
Lisa L. replied:
Dr. Stacy Dinkins in Dickson
Darwin S. replied:
I am a surgical nurse and it sounds like he may have a torn ligament or tendon. He needs to see a good orthopedic facility. I would recommend Franklin Bone and Joint Clinic.
David D. replied:
Call Bart Durham, nobody and I mean nobody takes medical needs more seriously then him. He'll know exactly which DR to call.
Pam W. replied:
I love Williamson hospital there great
Marian D. replied:
Does he have insurance? I recommend Vanderbilt Bone and joint in Franklin. If he has insurance it depends on the policy if he needs a referral. No insurance, he doesn't need a referral, just money.
Steve L. replied:
Vanderbilt Bone and Joint. The Franklin location has a walk in clinic after certain hours. They are outstanding. M-Th. 5 pm to 8 pm, no appointment necessary
Sheryl M. replied:
Vanderbilt Bone and Joint in Franklin does not need a referral unless your insurance requires it. After hours is great for walkins
Valerie W. replied:
TOA has a walk in clinic at their OneCity location from 9 am-7 pm. No referral needed. Definitely sounds like he needs to see an Orthopaedic though. Good luck! https://toa.com/locations/orthosport-urgent-care

Amber H. replied:
Covenant Medical group next to Sonic. Friendly and caring.
Sherryl S. replied:
Covenant Medical by sonic. We see Katie. Everyone there is fantastic, caring, courteous. Good care without "extra" tests or medications.
Does anyone know if the "new" doctors office by Sonic is open? If it is, is it a REAL doctors office or a pain type clinic? I am looking for a good doctor in the area....
Judy H. replied:
Katie Barnes is the NP there and Rachel is the nurse. They are walkin welcome. I had to go last week and they are very attentive. Terrific clinic. THEY ARE NOT A PAIN CLINIC. Try them out. They are open on Saturday Mornings too.
Dolores P. replied:
Dr Walter Stephens MD outta Dickson, I think he's through Tri star/horizon?....
Tony J. replied:
Elaine Hibbs is a FNP and is at Fast Pace
Lorraine T. replied:
Tony, I go to Dr. Hibbs now. I love her but don't like the billing, extra charges etc that Fast pace charges. I have went round and round with them as if she writes a prescription for something other than what you came in for (one that was a pre-existing one) you get charged for TWO visits. It is not her and probably just a coding issue but I am sick of fighting with them so looking for an alternative.
Amanda T. replied:
I got tired of being treated like a drug dealer because I needed nerve medicine. Fast pace said sure we can prescribe that and then question you like you've done something wrong. I go to Right Care Primary Clinic in Columbia. Yeah its a drive but at least I'm treated like a human
Can anyone recommend a good female primary care physician in Franklin-Cool Springs area?

Sterling Primary Care-we are located in Cool Springs and we have a great family nurse practitioner in our office!

Burton Sanders is a great physician! Mary Lauren would be a great fit for your daughter! She is a younger nurse practitioner and she is so great with her patients!
Cassie T. replied:
I don't have one in cool springs but I do in Bellevue. Her name is Tamera Thoener at Harpeth Valley health center.
I am having an awful year with allergies. Can anyone suggest an allergy doctor?

I go to Vanderbilt ASAP. I see Dr. Julie Wagnon and she is great. If you haven't already started using a nasal spray, I use Flonase, I would start now, since things are starting to bloom.

Tiffany K. replied:
Dr. Lawrence Burns at St. Thomas West
Bert H. replied:
The Craig Center for Wound Care at St Thomas Midtown is phenomenal, if you can get in there.
I was hoping someone could give me a review of the doctors office by Sonic. We are looking for a new doctor and it would be nice to have one close to home.
Melissa L. replied:
It's Covenant Medical Group. They have an office in Dickson behind Food Lion also. Can't speak to the Fairview office, but Dr. Stephens at Covenant in Dickson is my all-time favorite primary care physician.
If you're in need of a local physician, I highly recommend Dr. Walter Stevens and the nurse practitioners at Covenant Medical Fairview! My husband and I just switched...
Melissa L. replied:
I have been seeing Dr. Stephens for years & he's the best!
Just wanted to give a huge shout out to Covenant Medical (This is the new Doctor's office by sonic) The office is SO CLEAN, the staff is excellent and my Dr was...
Lorraine T. replied:
This is actually an extension of a practice that's in Dickson Dr. Stevens I think that it is a very good place you should try it. What was Saint Thomas with Elaine Hibbs they actually closed that office down
