I just had a follow up with Dr Adams. He was very rude and discouraging. At the beginning of the appointment he YANKED my stitches out (one was sticking and not coming out easily), bringing me to tear. Without notice, he forced my knee to bend further than I’ve bent it yet. I was jumping out of my seat in pain, crying, and he didn’t flinch, just kept pushing. Then he called in the PT and laughed and mocked, “yeah, she’s mad at me now, but She’ll be fine and get over it. I need her knee bending more, so you need to get after it in PT and I’ll see her again in 2 weeks.” Then mocked me more as i was walking out in tears, through their nurses station, saying, “See! There ya go, that’s not so bad!” I said, “I’ve been walking like this all week! I AM doing everything the PT says.” I left feeling embarrassed and discouraged, due to his arrogant attitude. My knee, a few hours later, is extremely swollen and my pain is higher than it’s been all week. I will not recommend this surgeon.
Very professional, helpful and knowledgeable surgeon
Thorough explanation and careful listening. He went beyond caring my the patient and showed care to other family members.
I always feel comfortable with Dr Adams and he explains everything.
He did a great job explaining the issues with my injury and all the treatment options going forward. I highly recommend him.
Very pleasant Doctor that explained everything. Felt confident he could resolve the problem.
Had a very good encounter with nursing staff and with Dr Adam's. Diagnosed and treated my issue with an explanation of the primary issue and treatment options.Personable and professional nurses and physician.
Great to meet Dr. Adams! He was very cordial and explained everything for me to understand. Fun to converse with! Hopefully won't need to see him again but if I do I know I'm in good hands.
Very quick office procedure done today. Nothing could have gone better.
He is the most kind and friendly Dr. He explains in detail on what is wrong with your joints and always tries to let it heal on it own unless there is no other choice but to operate. I trust him with my joints and bones.
