My husband and I have been patients of Dr. William Rigsby for over 10 years. Dr. Rigsby is the most caring, thorough doctor we could ever ask for. Even prior to joining the MDVIP Program, Dr. Rigsby spent time with his patients, learning about who they are and how their bodies work. Now that he is part of MDVIP, it is a dream to have him as our doctor. He truly is the small town doctor that… See more

Testimonials from patients of Dr. Rigsby
I have been a grateful patient of Dr William Rigsby for over 20 years. His training, dedication and attention to detail is the second reason why I am alive today. On a routine physical he detected unusual skin patterns and referred me to a friend dermatologist. I was biopsied twice to then determine it was cancer. I caught it early and I am being treated today. The first reason why I am alive… See more
Dr. Rigsby loves helping people. He genuinely loves doctoring, and is constantly learning and keeping up on latest research and ways to keep his patients well.
He listens to my concerns, gives feedback, is thorough in examinations and never rushes through an appointment.
I always feel confident and uplifted in mind and body after he sees me.
His support staff is great as well… See more
I love my doctor! He makes me feel so comfortable! He has found my cancer 2 different times. I have GIST and Dr. RIGSBY has found it by feeling of my stomach. I would recommend him and his staff to everyone. Thank God for a doctor who is so caring and knowledgeable .
Available, Friendly, Caring, Knowledgeable, Decisive.
when i first saw you, years ago, i was in poor health condition. Now I am much healthier and feel better. You are the reason why. I had see so many doctors that I had lost all hope in getting better and did not want to see anymore. I have been badly practiced on so much until I found you and your team to make me feel better. I know that you will retire soon and know that I cannot replace… See more
I love Dr. Rigsbys approach to my health! It's the let's age less concept. Instead of fearing the next phase of my life, he has me excited. Thank you!
Dr. Rigsby and his staff are always very accommodating and caring. He takes the time to explain matters and I explicitly trust his advice ( although I may not always follow it to the letter).
Great practice.
Dr Rigsby has always been there for me and shown concern and care regardless of my situation. I adore not only him but his office staff. I can't thank you all enough for all you do.
Dr. Bill is one big story. He always has time for Barb and I whether we need him at the office or at his home. His knowledge of interaction of drugs is of the utmost value. And Sally and the rest of his office staff are also the best. They are always people persons ready and able to accommodate all of our needs. We feel very secure with the thought that we might have any future health problems… See more
