Just saw Dr. Horton for the first time, and I was so impressed by how thorough and attentive he and Whitney were. They truly took the time to listen and made me feel comfortable and cared for. I was nervous about seeing a new doctor, but those concerns quickly faded. So happy Dr. Horton is here in the Shoals!

We have a great group of the Medical Associates and we always go there to check us out. We dont get suckers when we leave, but they are so smart and take care of us very well. We appreciate all what they do. Thank you all for everything!! Dr. Thompson we didn't forget to let all these other people know who you are! Wonderful! So glad you are the best!

I love this place and I have never had what I feel like to be a long wait time. I've never had the lab people have any issues or dig for a vein. Dr. Richards, Dr. Dickson, and Dr. King I have personally seen since being there. All 3 of them have been top notch. Great personalities, upbeat, genuinely caring, took their time with me and never ever made me feel rushed.

I saw Dr Richards for a very long time and after his accident, I was scared to death I’d never find another doctor like him. One that actually listened, cared, and based things off of my health, not just what the books say. I’m so thankful for Dr Horton, he truly has been a bright light just like Dr Richards was! All the staff are truly amazing people and I am thankful for all that they do!
