Highland Family Medicine — Accepting New Patients

Dr. Helton is the only family medicine physician in Murfreesboro with his own practice who also holds privileges at Ascension Saint Thomas Rutherford Hospital. When his patients are hospitalized, he's there — personally overseeing their care.
Most family doctors hand you off at the hospital door. Dr. Helton walks through it with you.

Diane K.

My first visit was great from start to finish. This clinic was recommended to me when my long-time primary care physician retired from practice. The staff was professional and courteous. Dr. Jackson really listened and worked with me to address my healthcare needs. I'm really glad she's going to be my new primary care physician.

Absolutely best medical treatment I've ever had. Dr. Middler has always gave me and my husband sound medical treatment and referred us to all the right people for things he could not treat us for. Him and his staff are super nice, helpful, and not a lot of wait time like most places... they are the best

So grateful to have finally found a provider, Danelle Farmer, who truly listens and works with you to understand your needs and concerns. Not only do I see her, but my husband does as well. We are extremely pleased with her and this practice.
