Lacks skills and temperament to be in the medical field. Many of his patients have suffered severe consequences as a result of his “work”.

Poor communication with the family, general knowledge of surgery lacking, skills terrible, wanted pt to just wait instead of attempting to move forward with treatment, did not pay attention to overall management of pt. Would never recommend him for any care.

Was so glad he returned to Salem. Very trustworthy and knowledgeable. Highly recommend.

Very good surgical skills! He treats patients well and does a good job. I would be very hesitant to see another general surgeon in this area that does not practice in Dr. Pugh's office.
