First time visit to orthopedic doctor for follow up from fracture to left proximal humerus. Wished I could have seen him sooner because of the pain level and not having enough pain med for the week . I didn't know this would be so painful

He doesn't take care of backs and that's what I thought an orthopedic did,,, all bones. He also doesn't have/use an ultrasound for injections.

It was all good until I was asked what day I wanted my surgery and I did say I wanted it on Friday and the next thing I know I'm scheduled on Thursday. So I did let them know the next day that I couldn't do it and they did reschedule me but I kind of wish that he (Dr.) would have gone with my first choice.That's my only complaint.

Very pleasant!

My visit went very well, every member of staff was courteous and very helpful in answering all my questions. The interview with the provider was excellent in providing information about my ailment. My only gripoe is that it would be a lot better if the imiging lab was in the same building as where the interview takes place, rather than having to go to a different building, especially when the condition of my complaint is so painful. Maybe this could be a thought to ponder on.

Computer access to my medical records was very easy to use. Receptionist was very positive and friendly. So was the doctor's assistant. Doctor was very knowledgeable and thorough. Payment for co-pay was super easy.

Felt a little judged for taking all the pain meds after surgery.
