This was a phone visit. Dr Pruitt worked me into his schedule to see if I had clots in my lungs. My PCP had all test ordered and ran, and sent to him, so he could take care of it. His staff was wonderful working me in and getting this all set up.
Left the office feeling confident doctor was knowledgeable, interested and capable.
Dr. Pruitt and his staff are probably some of the best that I've dealt with in health care overall.
He's a very good Doctor I have progressing because of him and my hard work
Dr Pruitt is a very thrown Dr, he found things my Dr didn't know. He follows up with my family Dr
He is referring me to an allergist, which no one has done before, to see if that's what's causing my asthma to flare up, and new test
Very easy to talk too, and a good listener
I was blown away by the Doctors professionalism and knowledge!
Very easy to talk to

Would recommend Dr Pruitt to anyone.. Very good Doctor

Good experience.
Dr. Pruitt was brusque, honest, and realistic. I appreciate his lack of "sugar coating"
Doctor was very compassionate and kind.
Dr. Pruitt was very intuitive, he and his staff were both very kind, and answered all my questions.
I would recommend him to anyone with breathing/ lung issues.
Love this Doctor and his staff. They are very friendly, caring, answer all my questions, and are very concerned for our health needs. Best pulmonologist I have ever dealt with.
Dr Pruitt explained and showed me x rays, helped me better understand what may be going on
Dr. Pruitt is a very good listener and he explains things to the fullest extent with pictures.
