Robert S. Furr M.D. FACOG

"Went to several ob/gyno doctors in the Chattanooga area and Dr. Furr was the only one that didn’t just throw birth control pills to mask my problems. He sought the root of the cause and I had two successful surgeries that fixed me right up. If you have endo he is definitely the doctor to take care of it."

"Dr. Furr is amazing and worth the wait to see him. He gave me my life back. And his nurse practitioner, Jessica Smith is just as amazing. She sat and listened to every single concern and gave me plenty of options. I have experienced canceled appointments, but his staff has always been helpful and kind and get me rescheduled just as soon as they can. I drive two hours to see him/his staff and it is never wasted. I will never regret all the hours, money or miles I've spent to see him."

"Edited 8/22/2023; The office called me a month after the missed virtual appointment to reschedule for 8/21/2023. Dr. Furr again did not call me as scheduled. Completely unprofessional. If you need to see him, do not schedule a phone appointment because it obviously will not happen. Don't schedule a phone/virtual appointment with him because he won't honor it and will treat you like an option. I had an appointment scheduled and the staff called to say he had to leave to go to his child's sporting event and that he would either call me while driving (how is this even possibly effective?!) or the next day between surgeries. Never heard from him. I waited months for this appointment. I live 2 1/2 hours from his office, so the call was the best and earliest option I could get to see him. Now I have to start from scratch. Our medical system is pathetic."

"Dr. Furr and his team are busy, but they're popular because they're good. Dr. Furr was recommended by members of Nancy's nook. You will have to wait to be seen, but the level of expertise is high. Dr Furr respects you and does what needs to be done, unlike some other providers. They are very familiar and fast with the surgery process so you might feel rushed or a little bit of pressure or influence to do things you may not have considered doing. The benefit though, is that they really know what they're doing and they will do their absolute best to make sure you have the best health outcome possible. My external stitches are a bit messy, but otherwise it seems like my surgery was a total success. I'm seeing benefits after only a few weeks of recovery. Well worth the wait. He is so busy that it is difficult to get scripts through him, but I'm sticking with it because I need his expertise. The hrt he's put me on has been the most effective hormone treatment I've experienced so far. The hospital I was treated at, Erlanger, deserves its own review... Remember to view the surgical facility independently of the provider. Please be cautious when reading negative reviews... To no fault of Dr. Furr, surgery can be hard on the body, and pain can persist. That's just the nature of the nervous system and endometriosis. Physical therapy is an absolutely wonderful tool for training the nervous system and reducing symptoms of many types. Many insurances cover physical therapy so it's worth looking into if you need help rebounding after surgery, or if you're trying to prevent surgery. Pelvic specialists are amazing. Get a consultation and recovery plan in place prior to surgery if you can. With the combination of the surgeries I've had, a healthy vegan diet, physical therapy and hrt, I'm in so much less pain after over 20 years of suffering. Go see Dr. Furr. He's helping me get my life back. Maybe he can help with yours too. I wish you good luck and good health!"

"Dr. Furr is truly the best doctor I have ever encountered. I was recently diagnosed by him with endometriosis after around 17 years of telling many other doctors and NP's about my symptoms. By the time one doctor had suggested it, I had done a lot of learning about the disease myself. I knew that the way my local doctor was going to treat it was very different than Dr. Furr, and outdated and often unsuccessful. I am so glad I decided to switch my care over to Dr. Furr. Not only is he an expert surgeon, he cares about every detail down to making sure that my husband was able to fill my prescription correctly when the pharmacy gave him issues. His staff is top notch as well and went above and beyond for me in every way they could. I highly recommend!!"
