Travis Cotton, MD FACS, Providence RI

Dr Cotton is extremely nice and knowledgeable.he has gone above and beyond my expectations.would refer him to all my friends and family.

Dr. Cotton is an excellent surgeon, and he and his staff have been extremely professional, helpful, and compassionate during my treatment. Dr. Cotton and his staff (special thanks to Nurse Practioner Nicole and Julie) provided expert care and kept me informed before and post surgery. My recovery is going great thanks to Dr. Cotton and after a great deal of research, I am extremely happy with my choice and the entire process. I am very glad that I chose Dr. Cotton for my thyroidectomy, and I highly recommend him.

Dr. Cotton is just wonderful all the way around. I had to have my right thyroid gland removed. The procedure was thoroughly explained and everything went off without a hitch. It's even hard to tell I had the surgery; the scarring is minimal at best. Dr. Cotton is very pleasant and doesn't make you feel like you're just another number. He listens. His staff is wonderful as well. A shoutout to Julie the secretary and Nicole Demir, NP. Dr. Cotton doesn't know it yet but, if I need anything else removed, I'm asking him to do it.

If I could post a "BELOW ZERO" I would due to the unprofessionalism and lack of empathy. I had a surgery with Doctor Cotton and read my pathology report on line idicating "Cancer" was found in thyroid and a lymph node at 6pm at night (it was actually sent to him around 1 in the afternoon), I was mortified that the doctor did not call me, I called immediatly for an explanation and was told by the answering service, after they spokes to Dr. Cotton, he would not discuss anything with me after hours! I had the most traumatic night. Never called me in the morning, I called the office at 10 a.m. They indicated he was in surgery, well he could have called me at 7 a.m. Before starting his day! I called Boston and they treated me like "GOLD" I sent all my reports to them and they immediatly forwarded my records to the head Endocrinologist/Oncologist. At 4 p.m that day Doctor Cotton called me (almost 24 hours later), his response and explanation was more than deplorable, I asked why would I read my results on my Lifespan he said that was the law and would see me in a week and half and further operate. Well Lifespan said information like that is not to be on the internet per their site and talking to someone there, she would be looking into this. Boston got me right in with 2 appointments the next week and are treating me. STAY AWAY. BAD BAD BAD.
