VERY FRIENDLY AND MADE ME FEEL COMFORTABLE AND RELAXED!
Absolutely the best experience! Dr. Thalody makes and takes the time to answer every question. She asks about goals and helps set realistic expectations for the best possible outcome. Could not be happier!!
I was asked to come in earlier than scheduled.initially my appointment was for 2:40and then changed to 1;40.I didn’t see the doctor till 2:30.being it was a second opinion visit i really had a lot I wanted to express about my condition that had transpired over the past three months but actually felt rushed and was unable to do so.maybe the doctor was behind with patients? I’m not sure but atleast the doctor did give me some time to explain and had a good bedside manner. I just didn’t get the time to satisfy my concerns with all the answers I was looking for.
It was very nice meeting Dr Hope for the first time! She was very upfront with me and didn’t pull any punches related to what she saw on my knee X-rays. She clearly explained my options, what would or wouldn’t work and why. I am looking forward to seeing her again and when I am ready for knee replacement surgery I will not hesitate to have her do it!
She is willing to do whatever will help!
I really liked her. She did explain what findings the x-ray showed. She did not tell me when I could resume walking after receiving a corticosteroid injection or any side effects that may occur, so I Googled it. She did not review any other nonsurgical or surgical treatments available. I guess PT will tell me what I need to do moving forward.
Having hip replacement surgery next and satisfied with knee replacement in May wonderful staff in office and surgery center
She was excellent, explained everything for me to understand, was not rushed, just a good visit. Her intern was very good also.
Very patient!
Dr. Thalody is an excellent doctor and surgeon. Great person, also!! I am so glad I went to her for my surgery. As far as I'm concerned she's the BEST!!
