Teresa M. Williams, MD

Does not treat the poor, does not need to be a doctor.

Very efficient with little waiting time. Dr. Williams is an excellent doctor. I appreciated the texts from her to see how I was feeling after my visit.

Dr. Williams is an excellent physician — she always takes her time, explains results in detail and provides first-class care.

Dr Williams is knowledgeable and compassionate. She will sit with me for an hour explaining the diagnosis and how to treat it. She is an all around wonderful person who cares about everyone. I wouldn’t trade her for any doctor in the world!

I am blessed to have a Doctor I feel comfortable with. One I can reach out and call if needed. Very good experience!!

Sadly I cannot recommend this provider to anyone. My experience with Dr. Williams was less than desirable.

My mother-in-law was a resident in an area nursing home and Dr. Williams was one of the providers in the facility. My wife and I hired Dr. Williams to manage her care. Shortly after hiring her, the nursing home made a mistake in caring for my mother-in-law. Dr. Williams met with us and her conversation with us was condescending and disrespectful to say the least. Dr. Williams took the side of the nursing home instead of considering the interests of the patient and the concerns of the family she was charged with caring for.

On a separate occasion, when my mother-in-law fell ill while in the nursing home, Dr. Williams refused to listen to our concerns and would not entertain our requests for treatments that had helped her for similar illnesses in the past. Dr. Williams initially refused to treat my mother-in-law and then prescribed the wrong treatment for her. Unfortunately, we did not discover this was the wrong treatment until my mother-in-law was rushed to the emergency room. We were told by the hospital that the damage had already been done and they would try to reverse it but were unsure if they would be able to. Unfortunately, they were not able to correct it and my mother-in-law passed a few weeks later. To exacerbate matters, we told Dr. Williams that her services were no longer needed after we became disgusted with the treatment she provided. After being informed she was no longer needed, Dr. Williams contacted the nursing home which resulted in my mother-in-law not being able to return to the facility for hospice care. This created another problem of trying to find a place for my mother-in-law to receive hospice care while the hospital was ready to discharge her. Not something a family should have to do when a loved one is near death. Especially after she made the mistake.

My experience with Dr. Williams had previously been very good, which was why I was so shocked at the treatment she provided us and my mother-in-law. During the brief time she cared for my mother-in-law, she was condescending, talked down to my wife and I, and refused to listen to any questions we had about her care. She was also unwilling to listen to any recommendations we provided on her care, even though we had been helping care for her and her condition for several years. She was very short with us and acted put-out at anything we said.

If you are looking for a provider for you or your loved one, I would look elsewhere. In my opinion, there is never an excuse for the treatment we received from Dr. Williams.

Teressa Williams is an unethical provider who is out of touch with reality and has difficulty listening to her patients and their families/caregivers. She began caring for my mother in May 2021 while residing in NHC Springfield. Without proper diagnostic testing, she was prescribed the wrong medication and treatment for approximately a week leading to her being rushed to NorthCrest and her untimely death. Her gross neglect caused a condition that the ER attending physician and the hospitalist described as "irreversible." My mom's medical team at NorthCrest attempted to reverse the damage but sadly was unable to, and my mom was moved into hospice, where she passed away weeks later.
Theresa Williams visited my mom at NHC a few days before she was rushed to NorthCrest. My mom was lying in a bed, unresponsive, obviously sick. After leaving, Teressa Williams sent me a text message stating that she believed my mom had "years left with proper care." I had nurses, CNAs, and other medical staff that had worked with my mom acknowledge the drastic change in baseline, except for Teressa Williams.
I should have heeded the warning signs. My first was in conversations with this provider; she openly discussed her discontent with PAs and APRNs making the same earnings as her but with less schooling. My second warning came when my husband and I met with her during her office hours to discuss my mom's care. Teressa Williams was argumentative and would not allow my husband and me the ability to talk. It was challenging to ask questions, given she spoke over us and would not listen. We honestly did not understand what we had walked into and questioned if she had the right family. I would never have stood for someone speaking to us with such disregard, except that she was assigned to my mother's care.
In my humble opinion, Teressa Williams should not be a practicing provider. And please do not pay the extra fees associated with contracting her to care for you or your loved ones. If you have questions or want to discuss the above, do not hesitate to get in touch with me.

Dr. Williams is a wonderful, intelligent and compassionate MD who truly cares about her patient's well being. She goes out of the way to make sure her patients are taken care of and stay healthy.

Dr. Williams and her staff are professional, polite and very good listeners. Staff are ready at the appointed time and I never feel rushed. Dr. Williams is very thorough and organized during the visit. She is a very good listener and patient oriented. She clarifies when needed and patiently answers my questions. I'm so thankful for her!

Fabulous. The Office is always friendly.
Dr Williams is the very best doctor. We have
complete confidence in her medical care and treatment.

So thankful to call Dr Teresa Williams my and my husband’s doctor. She is caring, kind, intelligent, very well educated and experienced as a doctor. She is dedicated to Serving her patients and goes the second mile always.

Always a pleasant experience. Detailed examination and questions. Explains clearly. I have confidence my
visit is successful for my medical needs. I look forward to my visit when health concerns arise.
Dr Williams always takes the time needed for a complete discovery and complete treatment.
The Staff is very friendly and helpful.

Dr. Williams is such a caring, kind and thorough physician.
Whether you go in for wellness check or for an illness she goes over all your test results and your diagnosis for the visit, she also gives you copies of your test.
I love the fact that she always discuss treatment plans with you with other options. She has never over medicated us.

Her staff is the Best, they treat you more like a friend than a patient.
Her office is Always clean and such a calm relaxing place.

We are Thankful, and very Appreciative to have her as our doctor. ❤❤❤

We could not be happier with the care, concern, and capabilities Dr Williams and her staff show us. Most recently she correctly interpreted signs my husband was exhibiting that led to the removal of a 95% blockage near one of his 3 bypasses and a small stent being put in. She didn’t hesitate to send us to ER at St Thomas where she had our cardiac team waiting. We love her😘

Dr. Teresa Williams is an excellent doctor. She is very thoughtful and methodical with her evaluation. She is willing to consider other therapies besides just prescribing more medications the mask the symptoms. She is careful not to over medicate my elderly mother but is willing to investigate find out what the underlying causes are to her health issues.

I have been in the medical field since 1995. In all these years, I can count on one hand, the number of physicians or providers who have ALL the qualities to be called a great physician. Dr. Williams is at the top of the list. She is brilliant, yet, unlike most gifted minds, she can come back down to the real world and apply her knowledge. That alone sets her apart. However, if you combine this Medical Expertise and Experience with her care and compassion, her wonderful bedside manner, her ability to “do the right thing”, even when no one is watching , her punctuality, her wonderful personality, her beauty (both inside and out), and her amazing office staff..... ...well, Need I say more. Dr. Williams is the example of what it takes to make a great doctor!!! “For taking the time to listen when others did not, for caring, and for giving me back my life, I thank you.”
Forever grateful.

If you want a doctor who will care for and about you, you cannot do better than Teresa. She's a jewel.

Dr. Williams is the kind of doctor most people don't even know exist. She takes as much time as is needed for each appointment and thoroughly explains all information and sets goals. She gives handouts and goes through them with me. She requires me to do blood work twice a year which previous doctors never did. She has called my pharmacy to discuss the cost of my prescriptions. She has also called several facilities to compare costs for CT scans and other tests. Dr. Williams is always going above and beyond the basic requirements of offering excellent medical service. She is truly amazing, so caring. I'm grateful she is my physician.

I was admitted to the hospital in November 2019; a very sick lady.
Basically, I am an active, vibrant 85 year old and never really been a sickly person. However, after my hospitalization, I felt like Dr Williams was where I needed to be.
She has been a God send; she has helped me recover and feeling back to myself.
I am very happy with my choice and highly recommend Dr Williams and her staff.

Dr Williams is such a knowledgeable and caring physician and I am so blessed to be under her care.

One may believe that you are her only patient.

Dr. Williams is always professional and responsive to the needs of my elderly mother. She keeps our family informed in a variety of ways and communicates clearly concerning her medications and care.

Always pleasant & helpful when I see her & she recently called in a prescription for me when we were on vacation in Kauai, Hawaii....after I contacted her office with an issue.
Above and beyond what most physicians have done for me in the past!

Dr. William's is fantastic in all aspects.

Dr. Williams is excellent. Always attentive, professional and concerned. Could not ask for a better medical doctor.

Dr Williams is very thorough and was always willing to spend time to treat the whole patient. She is by far the best I’ve seen!

I could not ask for a more caring and compassionate physician. She takes the time to listen to your concerns and then address your problems.

Was a patient with her when she first came to Springfield. Best caring doctor that I have ever had!

Dr Williams is a proactive, lead by example, compassionate and very highly educated physician! I would highly recommend her to anyone that wishes to improve their health and educate themselves in a healthy lifestyle to include health improvement practices.

Dr. Teresa Williams is an excellent doctor, she is very kind, understanding and she listens. She takes her time with her patients, she really cares about us. The first time I saw doctor Williams she was caring for a lady who was very very sick. She was so professional and at the same time compassionate. I am so proud to say I have the best of the best.

I am extremely happy that I learned about Dr. Williams and her “different” medical practice from a friend, who was already going to her and sang her praises!
I thought, a doctor on call (for me) 24-7, how can that be? So I looked into the MDVIP program and liked what I read, then read about Dr. Williams and her credentials and was convinced this was for me.
Just a little back story. Our son died 8 years ago, by taking his own life, so needless to say it has been a very difficult time for me, these last 8 years. After he died, and I was in prayer (a lot!!) I came to realize that all of the people in my life, prior to and after his death, were placed in my life by God for reason and all had a purpose. Before my eyes, my life looked like a puzzle and I was able to start putting pieces together, most representing the people in my life, and could see how God had been, was, and will always take care of me, by so carefully selecting the people I would encounter, whether family, friend, co worker, neighbor or even stranger.
Because of not only the stress, but aging of course, I was having more health issues and was not satisfied with some of my doctors. Then, God introduced Dr. Williams into my life.
What a life and mental health saver!! I cannot express in words what it has meant to me to be able to reach Dr. Williams in emergencies, but more than that, it’s the time, concern, caring, and compassion she has with me that has made such a difference in my life and health. And “thorough”, oh my goodness, she will leave no stone unturned to get to the bottom of my issues.
Sometimes I get this fear that this is too good to be true, but I stop myself and just thank my Good Lord for gift he has given me.
Dr. Willliams is different from sooooo many doctors, and I’m proud that I’m one of her patients, and I hope I never overstep my boundaries with this wonderful privilege of having an expert, human and loving doctor.
Thank you Dr. Williams for all you’ve done and for being the kind of doctor you are.
Sincerely,
Sandra Bracy

Dr. Williams is the most knowledgeable and caring doctor I've ever seen. She won't hesitate to send you to a specialist if she feels it is necessary. The specialist she sent me to was very impressed with her knowledge and the medications she gave me before I saw him. She even saw, before I did, that there were medications I needed and she was absolutely right. Will definitely cry if she retires while my husband and I are still here.
