I went to CC walk-in clinic (I was just there 3 wks prior) Ive had issues with pain in my right leg radiating into my foot for over 3 years and he is the 1st Dr who made any sense regarding what the pain may be from. He listened TO ME! I’ve had numerous tests done all coming back normal. But, he thinks it’s scar tissue buildup (not arthritis) around a nerve where I had a dog bite. He referred me to someone he feels may be able to help me. I’ll see this Dr in 2 days. Here’s praying for a common sense answer🙏🙏

While knowledgeable in his field, his bedside manner with children is lack luster at best, and his personal hygiene with greasy hair is questionable.

He usually has incredible bedside manner but not this time. I don't know if he had a bad day or what . My daughter had more questions but she felt like she couldn't ask him and we felt rushed .

Kind and conscientious team from the reception and intake with Teri to everyone who made my visit comfortable. Dr Kelly, patient, willing to listen and not rushed. I walked in at 3pm and they greeted me with a smile. Thank you for a wonderful experience!

Specialty Areas of Orthopaedic Treatment Dr. Kelly treats a wide variety of pediatric orthopedic conditions including sports injuries, fractures, limb deformities, hip dysplasia, hip impingement, slipped capital femoral epiphysis, spine deformities (scoliosis and kyphosis), Perthes disease, and foot deformities (including clubfoot). Dr. Kelly has contributed over 100 publications to the medical literature on a wide variety of orthopedic surgery topics. He has also published over a dozen book chapters in orthopedic surgery textbooks.
Perthes Disease Dr. Kelly is a member of the International Perthes Study Group and is the only physician in the study group from the state of Tennessee.
Perthes disease is a childhood hip disorder affecting a wide range of children ages 2 to 15 (most commonly from ages 4 to 9) and is caused by a disruption of blood flow to the ball of the hip joint. The loss of blood flow produces the death of bone in the femoral head, which is referred to as “avascular necrosis” of the femoral head. Boys are four times more likely to be affected than girls. Ten percent of patients will have Perthes in both hips (referred to as bilateral disease). Usually one side is affected first and then the other side will get the disease a few years later.
For more information about this disease, please visit http://www.perthesdisease.org/
Treatment of Clubfoot The Ponseti Method was developed at the University of Iowa by Dr. Ignacio Ponseti. This method for clubfoot treatment is nearly 100% effective when used properly by a trained health care provider and is considered the “gold standard” treatment for clubfoot – a condition which causes a child’s ankles to rotate internally. Untreated, children with clubfoot eventually appear to walk on their ankles or sides of their feet. Dr. Kelly is the only Certified Ponseti Provider in the state of Tennessee.
