Everything was done well and Dr. Pruitt has a very good bedside manner or a good manner of waiting on patients.

Dr Pruitt always takes the time to discuss my situation, listen carefully to what I say, remembers prior responses at following appointments and is very obviously caring and kind!

July 3, 2026

I really feel like the providers are doing everything to help me get well. They all have taken their time to listen to me. I never felt rushed and they have great bedside manners.

July 4, 2026

I really want to say really good things about Dr. Pruitt. He spent a whole hour with us and explained what to me is a very complicated condition. He has tremendous patience and I had a lot of questions. His nurse, and I cannot remember her name, was so friendly and pleasant and set us all at ease. It's a great practice and I can't say enough good things about them. Thank you.

July 3, 2026

Dr Pruitt is the best. He takes time he listens he's personable and it's so easy to have a conversation with him because he listens and he provides you with information that I feel I can take seriously and feel confident in his treatment.

Unfortunately, I was having an extreme anxiety attack and I was extremely tired and frustrated. So I was a little off the rails, but I finally got everything out and he listened. He did a great job actually. And he sent me medication, which I'm not told about, but I will try it. I haven't had success with that in the past. We did have a difference of opinion on what exacerbated this problem. But I was lucky to get in so quickly, but the follow-up visit is a year away. That is not okay. That is absolutely not okay, even though he said we would have telehealth visits. That is absolutely not okay. I mean, he did listen, so that's good. Thank you.

June 30, 2026

Dr. Pruitt was very personal and caring. His concern was apparent and he never dismissed my questions as trivial. A great caregiver!

I go to several doctors for my various ailments and I trust Dr. Pruitt over them all! He is a blessing! His level of knowledge and people skills are the best!

June 25, 2026

5

I have been with this provider for years and want to stay here. However, I hate how difficult it is to get an appointment, even as an established patient. I was asked by the provider to come back in 6 months to follow up on a change in medication but the earliest available was 10 months.

June 21, 2026

I always like Dr. Pruitt. He's like a family. He's like a brother. He used to have PAs or nurse practitioners working with him who did like reflex neurological exam for him. That was lacking. We mainly just sat and talked, which I trust him and his concern that he has for me. I don't like his schedulers and his the nurses that worked for him were in a rush, family, more of a kind of a military topic with them. I thought the people in the outer office, they were very friendly. Didn't necessarily like the rushness of the ?

June 24, 2026

5

Very good appointment in every respect. Very efficient . Dr Pruitt went over materials I had brought , commented & asked questions . Appointment was not rushed & he spent a lot of time with me. Well done!

Dr. Pruitt is very comforting, has excellent customer service skills. He spends time listening to you and he gives feedback to help you understand maybe concern that you may have.

Dr Pruitt is a great doctor. So thankful I am under his care providing me with the best medical care I could get anywhere. Thank you Dr Pruitt and Wellstar.

It was so nice to see a doctor. I usually just see a PA or NP.

June 16, 2026

5

Went to Dr. Pruitt years ago, then my life got crazy. Then my GP referred me to a different neurologist after years of suffering with migraines. The new neurologist always had their PA do the work and I didn't even see the doc for ten minutes each visit. They never sat down and explained anything to me or even a treatment plan. Just pushed me off on their PA or wanted to send me to a headache specialist in Atlanta. Fast forward to recently, had an unrelated issue and was referred back to Dr. Pruitt, and boy am I ever grateful to be back under his care. He sits and listens, draws funny diagrams of thing to help explain an issue I have, set up a treatment plan, and ordered scans to see what is going on in my stubborn head. He is a night and day difference from my other doctor because they made me feel like things are in my head (pun intended) or that I was someone just out looking for drugs. I guess what I am trying to get across, is that I didn't know how much I missed a doctor that is genuinely concerned about his patience and he even said that he is here to help me, no matter what I ask of him. In this day and age, doctors like him are hard to come by. Oh, and he even suggested a homeopathic route for my treatment. When do you hear doctors telling you to try that way anymore? Thank you Dr. Pruitt for making me feel like a human and not just a number.

June 14, 2026

My Doctor, Dr Pruitt is great. He explains everything in detail, listens, and great bedside manner. Highly recommended! The staff and Nurses are very nice as well.

Dr. Pruitt has provided excellent care throughout my visit today. It was my first appointment, I felt heard and respected. I have complex neurological issues but Dr. Pruitt clearly explained my condition, answered my questions, and helped me understand my treatment options. I was amazed by his friendly approach, expertise, compassion, and patience. He takes my concerns seriously, pays close attention to details, and works to find the most appropriate treatment, giving me confidence in my care. The office staff is professional, friendly, and efficient, made my visit run smoothly. I am grateful for the care I have received and would recommend Dr. Pruitt to anyone seeking a knowledgeable and caring neurologist. Thank you, Dr. Pruitt, for your care and support. You have given me hope and encouragement today and I'm grateful for your expertise.

Dr. Jerry Pruitt has wonderful bedside manner. He is compassionate and nonjudgmental. A lot of medical professionals could learn from him! I always have a meaningful conversation with him as well as all of the staff at Wellstar Fury's Ferry. The office has a calming and pleasing atmosphere.

I really want to say really good things about Dr. Pruitt. He spent a whole hour with us and explained what to me is a very complicated condition. He has tremendous patience and I had a lot of questions. His nurse, and I cannot remember her name, was so friendly and pleasant and set us all at ease. It's a great practice and I can't say enough good things about them. Thank you.

Unfortunately, I was having an extreme anxiety attack and I was extremely tired and frustrated. So I was a little off the rails, but I finally got everything out and he listened. He did a great job actually. And he sent me medication, which I'm not told about, but I will try it. I haven't had success with that in the past. We did have a difference of opinion on what exacerbated this problem. But I was lucky to get in so quickly, but the follow-up visit is a year away. That is not okay. That is absolutely not okay, even though he said we would have telehealth visits. That is absolutely not okay. I mean, he did listen, so that's good. Thank you.

Dr. Pruitt was very personal and caring. His concern was apparent and he never dismissed my questions as trivial. A great caregiver!

I always like Dr. Pruitt. He's like a family. He's like a brother. He used to have PAs or nurse practitioners working with him who did like reflex neurological exam for him. That was lacking. We mainly just sat and talked, which I trust him and his concern that he has for me. I don't like his schedulers and his the nurses that worked for him were in a rush, family, more of a kind of a military topic with them. I thought the people in the outer office, they were very friendly. Didn't necessarily like the rushness of the ?

Very good appointment in every respect. Very efficient . Dr Pruitt went over materials I had brought , commented & asked questions . Appointment was not rushed & he spent a lot of time with me. Well done!

June 21, 2026

I have been with this provider for years and want to stay here. However, I hate how difficult it is to get an appointment, even as an established patient. I was asked by the provider to come back in 6 months to follow up on a change in medication but the earliest available was 10 months.

June 21, 2026

Dr. Pruitt is very comforting, has excellent customer service skills. He spends time listening to you and he gives feedback to help you understand maybe concern that you may have.

Went to Dr. Pruitt years ago, then my life got crazy. Then my GP referred me to a different neurologist after years of suffering with migraines. The new neurologist always had their PA do the work and I didn't even see the doc for ten minutes each visit. They never sat down and explained anything to me or even a treatment plan. Just pushed me off on their PA or wanted to send me to a headache specialist in Atlanta. Fast forward to recently, had an unrelated issue and was referred back to Dr. Pruitt, and boy am I ever grateful to be back under his care. He sits and listens, draws funny diagrams of thing to help explain an issue I have, set up a treatment plan, and ordered scans to see what is going on in my stubborn head. He is a night and day difference from my other doctor because they made me feel like things are in my head (pun intended) or that I was someone just out looking for drugs. I guess what I am trying to get across, is that I didn't know how much I missed a doctor that is genuinely concerned about his patience and he even said that he is here to help me, no matter what I ask of him. In this day and age, doctors like him are hard to come by. Oh, and he even suggested a homeopathic route for my treatment. When do you hear doctors telling you to try that way anymore? Thank you Dr. Pruitt for making me feel like a human and not just a number.

Dr. Pruitt has provided excellent care throughout my visit today. It was my first appointment, I felt heard and respected. I have complex neurological issues but Dr. Pruitt clearly explained my condition, answered my questions, and helped me understand my treatment options. I was amazed by his friendly approach, expertise, compassion, and patience. He takes my concerns seriously, pays close attention to details, and works to find the most appropriate treatment, giving me confidence in my care. The office staff is professional, friendly, and efficient, made my visit run smoothly. I am grateful for the care I have received and would recommend Dr. Pruitt to anyone seeking a knowledgeable and caring neurologist. Thank you, Dr. Pruitt, for your care and support.
