James E. Dowd, MD, FAAOS

Very thouough exam and reading of xrays.

Smart and caring doctor. Waisted no time with a good course of action for me.

I went to see Dr. Dowd a few years ago and I am so happy that I did, A very good wonderful doctor.

Dr Dowd took good care of me with my knee surgery

Outstanding support...ease of connection to my issues and easily established trust!

Dr. Dowd is amazing. He truly treats you with care and dignity. He has helped set me on a journey that has helped me lose 50lbs, and am the next step closer to a new hip. I am glad I found a genuine doctor.

Very knowledgeable and professional. Also quite personable with helpful suggestions.

He is very straight up, no beat around bush.

Dr. Dowd was thorough and gave me an injection in my knee. Other than having a sleepless night, I feel great and my knee pain is gone.

EXCELLENT

Respectful, prompt, caring

Nice polite and he listens and explains things

Thank you for seeing me

Great first cisit

I trust Dr. Dowd completely.

The best

I appreciated Dr. Dowd's clarity and objectivity in my first appointment. He laid out several options and gave me some time to decide when (not if) a knee replacement would be needed. He also removed doubts and concerns regarding potential replacement procedures. Smooth movement and balance are my objectives, and I am convinced I came to the right medical practice.

just quick visit and he helped alot in a short period of time and explained everything

I appreciate being called On in a timely manner. The doctor was very informative information

He and his staff made me feel very comfortable and they are really concerned about what’s going on with me and doing their best to take care of it

Really liked the way he explained things.

Dr. you didn’t send my pain medicine to CVS pharmacist on Airline Boulevardi

The Best!

Treated me with dignity and respect.

Partial knee replacement. The expected pain I'd heard so many horror stories about never materialized. My pain level rarely, if ever, rose about a 3-4 and most of the time was 0-1. Ditched the walker after one week, the cane after two. After 5 weeks, done with therapy and moving on with life.

Shot in my knee worked right away. It's magic.Thank you.

Dr. Dowd provided me with more information and treatment options than I received with 4 office visits with my other orthopedic doctor! Simply amazing!! Thank you Dr. Dowd

Fantastic doctor. Always friendly and empathetic. He performed my successful knee surgery in 2017. He is tops in my opinion!!!

Direct information. No equivicating. Very knowledgeable. Confidence building. Just like I like i.

Very personable.

Honest, Professional

The top!!

Straight into the point, that’s the kind of doctors I really appreciate.. suggested physical therapy, which I start on Thursday.

Dr. Dowd clearly explained findings and gave clear instructions for treatment

Excellent experience, Dr Dowd explained my options and provided me the amount of detail needed for me to make the best decision for me.

Appreciate the time taken to discuss our concerns. Getting older isn't easy, but your calm demeanor helps.

Very knowledgeable. I appreciate that level of experience

Exceptional bed side manner. Painless shots

Friendly and to the point.

Informative, a good listener. Great people skills

Best there is!

Super doc

Dr, Dowd never rushes and has always reviewed my record to be prepared.

I definitely appreciated Dr Dowds approach to my knee condition and consideration for what my goals are with it. His assessment was informative and his recommendations gave me a very good understanding of the benefits and downsides

Dr. Dowd is a great Doctor, Very friendly, easy to talk to.

Extremely knowledgeable, quickly grasps the issue from the patient's standpoint

Dr. Dowd always listens to the problem I am experiencing, he goes from there to make a plan for me. It always works, so happy years ago a friend recommended him to me

Dr Dowd, Is excellent in communicating my condition in layman's terms that I understand.

All questions answered. I am grateful for my nine-year-old knee replacement. If I decide to get a replacement in my other knee, I will certainly go back to Jordan-Young and Dr. Dowd.

Fantastic physician Wonderful bedside manner

Thank You!

It's been 2.5 years since Dr. Dowd completed my left knee replacement surgery. I haven't been the same since, and not in a good way. I'd give him a grade of C-. I am forced to seek another surgeon's opinion/expertise to find a solution to the 24/7 pain and discomfort.

Good listener and very much to the point.

I was very pleased with Dr. Dowd. He diagnosed my problem and we are proceeding with a plan .

Dr. Dowd was concerned and professional. His advice was caring and sound. I could not be more pleased with my appointment.

Totally listened to my concerns and made me comfortable.

Great bedside manner and administered 2shots with my feeling no pain. Great experience.

The best!! Has been my doctor For 23 years.

Dr. Dowd is so incredible because he is patient and keeps his patient informed of everything about their status. I am so fortunate to have him as my surgeon!

Great and listen patient and problems as professional

Dr. Down listened to my concerns, spent time with me, advised me, and didn't make me feel rushed. He took time to answer my questions and explained it clearly!

Dr. Dowd is an excellent surgeon, which I can attest to after having both hips replaced. But I am also pleased that he doesn’t try to push you into the surgical route until absolutely necessary

Very good visit with Dr Informative and nice and .

Explained everything well...reassuring.

Dr. Dowd is an excellent doctor. He takes time to explain issues, explores options with you, and does not recommend surgery if it is not needed. I am getting around with my knee replacement better than other folks that went elsewhere. He is the only orthopedic doctor I have found to be excellent in all areas.

Doctor Dowd is a wonderful doctor. He has a great personality and I trust him completely.

Very courteous and informative. He answered all my questions and provided information my previous doctor did not. I would recommend him to anyone.

He is always professional. Never tries to “twist your arm” one way or the other about whether to proceed with a particular solution. Offers options starting with least invasive. Respect his opinions.

Dr. Dowd gives his all to his patients. He has the expertise and the experience to be the top in his field. Dr. Dowd cares about his patients and gives you total confidence in his diagnosis and successful procedures/ surgeries. My family and friends wouldn’t go to any other orthopedic surgeon. We are all proof of the great doctor he is!!!

Dr Dowd is professional, caring and very good at what he does. I have had one hip replacement (performed by him) and will soon need the other hip replaced. I would not want anyone but Dr Dowd to perform my surgery. He is Excellent! My replaced hip is great now and you can barely see the scar from the surgery. In life, some people are placed in the positions in which they are meant to be. This is certainly true of Dr Dowd.

Dr. Dowd was kind and very accommodating with his time. He answered all our questions and made me feel very comfortable with my decision to have surgery.

Dr. Dowd was great. Explained everything that was going on and what his thoughts were on everything going on with me. Great Doctor!

I was so pleased with Dr Dowd and the staff. I will definitely recommend him to friends and family. Thank you

Excellent

So happy that I found him!

Very thorough and helpful information provided by the Good Doctor...

Even though it was terribly busy at Jordan -Young today, everyone was very professional and things ran very smoothly. My shot from Dr. Dowd was painless! 👍🏻

Dr. Dowd was personable and listened to what I was saying. We discussed the problem to my satisfaction.

Dr Dowd quickly recognized my personal knee performance goals and advised me accordingly.

Dr. Dowd, Is great. He takes his time with his patients. He listens to Your concerns. You are not just a number. He is very genuine and patient.

Very knowledgeable and professional

Listened to my concerns and answered clearly and without pressure

Dr. Dowd is always professional and kind, you just know he's really is concerned and wants surgery to be the last option.

Very knowledgeable, very professional, very personable. Answers all my questions in a language I can understand.

very through and easy to talk about your problem/issue

Awesome! Great visit very knowledgeable!

Dr Dowd is always extremely courteous and professional!!

After meeting with Dr Dowd I have decided on him to do my upctknee surgery

I think he saw that I was a Medicare patient and didn’t want to take me as a patient. The examination was less than 10 minutes. In his notes in My Chart he said he discussed things with me that he did not discuss. No interest in finding out the cause of my pain

I was very pleased with my initial meeting with Dr. Dowd.

Very caring professional. A+

Well prepared. Thorough attentive listener

He was very personable and took time to explain things to me.

Great doctor. Very short rushed visit. I should have asked more questions regarding my knee. When things are moving fast we tend to forget all the concerns we have.

Always professional and great care.

I left the consult without too much guidance or instructions. Although he was cordial and kind tome.

Enjoyed meeting Dr Dowd , came highly recommended and very easy to talk to . He explained all my questions and his response was easy to understand.

HAD A VERY INFORMATIVE DISCUSSION ABOUT KNEE REPLACEMENT, AND THE RECOVERY FROM SAME. ALL QUESTIONS WERE ANSWERED. LOOKING FORWARD TO THE NEXT STEP.

Very personable and I feel confident that I will be in good hands.

Dr. Dowd is great and takes the time to listen. BUT , the waiting time to see a doctor is too long!!! I heard many complaints from the patients around me.

Very Professional and friendly to the point gave short and long term solutions Excellent appointment

Great Dr

We are very impressed with his credentials and are confident he will perform an amazing surgery.

The visit with Dr Dowd was really awesome. He helped give me peace of mind & I had little to worry about yet.

Professional & through with Great explanations

I found Dr. Dowd to be very personable and professional. He explained my X-rays and suggested treatments to help alleviate pain and speed healing and alternates that be become necessary.

Dr. Dowd listens so well. He is kind,compassionate and very professional.

Oh my goodness! Cant say enough good things about Dr. Dowd. So appreciated his expertise. The cortisone injection was a piece of cake too and I feel like a new person in just 1 day.

Excellent bed side manner. Clear and precise explanations.

Highly professional and proficient.

Just reassured me that my hip damage was the same after my accident

Once a trust is established in your doctor you never want to change your dr. Dr Dowd is one of them. I am very happy and blessed. Thanks.

Excellent care, explanation of my knee problem and treatment

Personable! He gave me time and interest to hear my questions.

Good listener and communicator

Dr. Dowd is awesome!!!!! He did a super job with both of my surgeries. Wonderful experience and he has a great team to assist him.

He is the definition of what a doctor should be. He listens, he advises, he is proactive toward the next step that needs to be taken, he’s friendly and brilliant. He has done two hips and one knee for me and continues to work towards the best health and outcome I can get. None better!!

Very knowledgeable. Answered all my questions. Pleasant demeanor.

Dr dowd was very thorough and helpful.

Dr. Dowd is gifted surgeon , I have had both hips replaced by different Doctors and they did nice work on me, after 24 years I needed to have my first hip replacement updated. I looked at my options and chose Dr. Dowd to do the revision surgery. His work was great. In all respects he is the best out there. Thank you for the professional care . My best, Tim Freihofer

He is a great doctor. He took the time to explain my procedure and answer my concerns. I know at least 5 friends/family that he has replaced their knee. They have all had great outcomes. I highly recommend!

Excellent in his field!

I really like him. Very helpful and answered all my questions. Gave me a cortisone shot in my left knee and it was instantly relief. Hardly felt it.

Always efficient and pleasant

Kept me waiting in pain for almost an hour

He pays attention to what concerns the patient has.

Long waiting time but Dr. Dowd seemed rushed when it was time to discuss my concerns. Never responded to message I submitted to him through MyChart. Didn't review the important dates and notes from previous doctor that was pertinent to my visit that day, yet wasted time asking me the same questions. Had he read the paperwork that they ask me to complete, he would have been informed when he came in the room.

Started seein Dr. Dowd 15 years ago had a partial knee replacement. Since then I've had hip replacement and another partial knee replacement on other knee. Great care very Pleased Would highly recommend Dr. Dowd.

He. Doesn’t like pain either I need to waita few. Dasays to see if I improve very personabLe,. And informative Thanks

Last saw Dr. Dowd in 2016 so was glad to reconnect and get some help with my knee. Dr. Dowd was immaculately dressed from head to toe.

Very good

Super responsive and very precise explanations.

Honest appraisal, not in a hurry to operate.

he is awesome on a personal and professional level!!!!!

Always feel like he is the most knowledgeable and makes me comfortable in knowing that my knee is is good hands

How does One describe perfection ... Dr. James Dowd. All that comes to mind I'd Gold Standard and World Class.

Excellent doctor

Excellent bed side manor. Answered all my questions and did not rush me out.

Answered all of my questions. Quite Candid, which I appreciate.

Dr Dowd was very kind and most understanding when I asked to try a cortisone injection because my husband is terminal and I can’t have surgery now.

We feel like family. He’s the best!

He has my confifence

Professional, knowledgeable, experienced. Will revisit after the knee replacement.

He was pleasant to talk to, explained the xrays to me, gave me my 2 options, and I chose the injections. He explained what he was doing and there was no pain. I am impressed!

gave me confidence in his expertise and skill.

Very nice and pleasant 🙂 Very good 👍

Very good

Very professional and friendly as well I did not feel like he was rushing with my appointment. He took the time to listen to what I was saying

Very friendly and knowledgeable

Knowledgeable ...caring...and kind .What more could you want in a physician?

My first visit with him went fine. He was nice Efficient and explain things and spoke to me in a way that I could understand.

Delighted with Dr Dowd. Listened to my concerns, told me what I had, treated me, all in a timely manner. Appointment couldn’t have been better!

Thorough, excellent care! Dr Dowd was recommended to me by several people! Glad I made the appointment with him!

Easy to get along, comfortable

Explanation of what test results showed without asking so I know he has knowledge of my concerns. He did a exam and he knew exactly what to expect my reaction to be that matched the symptoms. Knowlegable. Would have liked examples of what to expect from future therapists going forward.

He is the reason that I have the quality of life that I have today. He has done my right and left hips and my right knee. They are great. He is always professional, friendly, and kind. Could not ask for a better doctor!!

Patient focus with eye contact to ensure the attention is on you and your concerns Also provided alternatives for continued care and detail explanation for each. Great physician.

My appointment was at 2:30. I was not seen by Dr. Dowd until 3:15-3:20. He obviously did not look at my chart and was very surprised that I have RA. Then proceed to tell me that I do need a hip replacement but my BMI is too high. Nothing changed from the time I made the appointment till the day of. The person scheduling asked for height and weight. Dr. Dowd could have relayed that information via a phone call or letter in the mail. He was overall very unprofessional and I will not be returning to see him or anyone else in your practice.

I have total confidence and respect for Dr. Dowd. He speaks to you in frank realities, but doesn't just tell you do it, he explains why. I feel like he is the 1st Dr. In a long time to treat me as an adult and not a child. I will be having my 1st surgery with him this fall and I must say I'm looking forward to it. Dr. Dowd listens and is a straight shooter. He doesn't side step your concerns. I've so far been very impressed.

Only met one time. Very professional.

Dr. Dowd is very competent and his manner inspires confidence in his patients.

Straight forward, professional and easy to work with.

Always available with concerned professional advice and help

I love hi! Compassionate, quick and very nice himan been.

Dr. Dowdy was very nice and had a great sense of humor. He didn't push any procedure on me and left the final decision what to do and when to do it to me.

Dr. Dowd was very thorough, listened to my concerns and answered all my questions with patience and kindness. I would highly recommend him.

Very professional easy to talk to.

I can always count on Dr. Dowd. I know that he has my best interest at heart. I appreciate his kindness but mostly his knowledge and care!

it is always a pleasure seeing DR DOWD, he always takes time for question, never seem rush, he gives the best injection shot, always a pleasure

DR. Gives you the full story. very good

He has always treated us with the best way he could.very professional knowledge and caring.we thank him so much for his care.

Very caring

Dr. Dowd is always willing to listen. He never makes me feel like he is in a rush or isn’t interested in what I’m saying. I really appreciate that.

Very thorough and Professional

Kiosk check in is inefficient and slow. Wait time tl see Dr. Dowd was 60 minutes beyond appointment time but understandable as that implies time caring for patients. Overall rating: OUTSTANDING!

He is not "knife-happy"; he looked at my knee's x-rays and was honest about what he saw.

Dr. Dowd is a consummate orthopedic physician.

Great Doctor. 2 hip replacements 20 years ago. Never a moments problem.

Excellent listener. Said surgery was not necessary now.

Perfect Doctor

5 stars

Simply the Best!

My first visit with Dr Dowd was excellent. He explained everything to my satisfaction and I was very pleased with his suggestions. I would highly recommend him to anyone needing this treatment.

I appreciate the fact that he made a point to get an update from me and then ask follow-up questions related to what has happened sine my last visit

Excellent patient communication, caring, compassionate, efficient and knowledgeable.

Excellent Dr.

Always professional and thorough.

Very caring doctor genuinely interested in your problems concerning your knees takes the time don’t feel rushed

Exceedingly professional and informative!

Seems to carfe

Received kind care and all employees were lovely to me

Didn't seem to even look at my charts...... I've been diagnosed with osteoarthritis in both hips and basically he just told me to live with the pain and try shots again that I've had previously with no resolve

Very professional; answered all my questions and my knee already feels better

Always professional and knowledgeable He takes time to listen to his patients and responded with ideas to help He is just the best and I would recommend him to any new patient

Impressed with Dr.Dowd

Nice and personable. He seemed to know what he was talking about and I felt confident in his care.

AS ALWAYS, EXTREMELY EFFECIENT AND PRACTICAL.

Dr. Dowd is just the best there is! His manner and caring makes me feel special. I have had both hips replaced and I know I am in good hands if I need any future adjustments.

Put me at ease concerning my hip.

Dr was friendly, knowledgeable & listened to what I was telling him.

very personal and explains things when asked

Informative and straightforward

Addressed my hip pain and I'm getting good results!

I haven't felt this good in 4 months. Referred by Linda Reese and I am thrilled.

This was my second visit with Doctor Dowd. My first visit was 3 years ago for pain in my right knee. No issues after that visit. This time is was the other knee. The day after I was free of pain.

Great doctor! Thorough and caring.

He was very caring and listened. It was such a difference from the last time I had seen him. The shot has worked. Therapy will continue to work with me to help with the hip, etc. I would recommend Dr. Dowd.

He really shows interest in his patience with me and my concerns. He seems to keep things real with you. I leave out feeling like I will get better. Thank you For. Dowd.

Staff was very efficient and Dr. Dowd was professional and answered all my questions.

no wait!

The elevator was broken but an assistant helped me up and down the stairs so VERY nice. The Jordan Group Dr Dowd and associates perfect and of course Dr Dowd could not have been more attentive. It is a trip for me but I will always make it. Thank you for a plus 10.

Easy to talk to and he answers all your questions. Doesn't rush you out.

He's the very best!!! He did a knee and a hip on me. And it's perfect.

Found Dr. Dowd to be caring and very matter-of-fact. He explained my medical condition and laid out a treatment plan. I'm not happy about surgery; but, I understand the need.

I did not feel heard. He did not acknowledge or seem to believe the pain I was feeling. He offered no help.

Rating s should be made after procedure.

Highly professional and knowledgeable, listened to my issues, then went into my options for treatment. Would recommend him to family and friends.

I waited over an hour for about 5 minutes of the doctor's time. He told me I didn't need surgery and couldn't get out of the room fast enough. I didn't get a chance to ask questions as he had his hand on the door and an exasperated look on his face. I'm glad my issue isn't severe, but I still deserve to be treated with care and respect!

A n excellent surgeon!

Excellent Doc. Extremely well run practice ! Thank you.

Dr Dowd administered a shot to my hip. I have been pain free since. I was in and out in no time! I’ve read many negative reviews and just can’t understand what the problem is!?! I’ve Chas knee and back surgery done at Jordan-Young and will go no where else for treatment, if possible. Thanks one more tome, and keep up the great work!!

Did not seem to believe my experience with my pain. Took 6 minutes total. If I have to have surgery it will be with another MD.

Dr. Dowd is an awesome doctor!

Dr.

I am very satisfied with Dr James Dowd’s treatment and care on of my knees. Revealing x-rays results and recommendating the best approach to treating the symptoms or problems. I am very confident with his work on me and would recommend him to anyone.

Need Knee replacement-just do it. Dr. Dowd and his team is great. Just do your rehab as told you’ll be glad you got it done.

The wait time on my appt day was about 40 min, which seemed a bit long; and the actual time in the exam room was only about 10-15 min. Dr. Dowd was very pleasant....... quick and right to the point!!!

Awsome

Wise, intelligent,and informative as always!

Dr. Dowd was engaged, listed to my problems and concerns. Frank and informative about my condition and options.. Very pleased with our interaction.

Excellent doctor. Thank you for wonderful care.

Very good Dr

All aspects of the appointment on time from check-in to x-ray to initial questions from PA to seeing Dr. Dowd himself who then thoroughly checked my knee, answered my questions and performed necessary procedure & testing.

Seemed like he didn’t believe me when I talked to him about my knee issues. Although he was extremely friendly & gentle w me.

Dr. Dowd has been helping me with my medical issues since 1999 and I have been totally satisfied and happy with him as my Orthopedic Doctor!

Professional and skilled. He is the Michelangelo of orthopedic surgery.

Great doctor, very personable. I wouldn't have any other doctor work on me.

Dr Dowd is always pleasant!

Dr Dowd is an excellent surgeon. I just wish he was able to help me find out what is causing the chronic nerve pain I have experience after knee replacement surgery.

He talked to you like a human being! Did not look down on you or was demeaning. Easy to talk to and ask questions about the procedure.

Greeter downstairs was very nice and helpful. Dr. And his people upstairs were great.

Easy to talk to-did not push surgery until trying other outlets! I like that a lot!!

I was very pleased He is an excellent doctor

Dr. Dowd did a great job, very knowledgeable and knows exactly what issue I have on my knees and hips. Other staff from receptionist, nurse, Xray did all a great job, very helpful!

Always has time for questions. Very thorough. And very gentle with knee injections👏👏

Personable and very attentive. Thorough and took plenty of time with me. Highly recommend him.

Dr. Dowd replaced my knee six years ago, and I could not be happier with the result. I just met with him regarding the status of the implant, and all is well. He also evaluated the other knee, and though it has issues, he was not quick to jump to replacement. I appreciate his expertise and surgical skill.

Did approximately after exam and discussion

Awesome doctor, for thorough!!

Have seen 4 other doctors for my knee. He is by far the best. After one day I am cured. Thanks Dr Jim

Great doctor and create practice .

Very helpful and excellent Doctor.

When I told him I was not interested in an operation he seemed to lose interest in me.

Always knowledge, professional, with empathy for his patients. I would recommend Dr. Dowd to anyone.

Very professional and personable. Excellent.

Great service

Dr. Dowd comes highly recommended through the experience of others. I am confident being in his care.

Great bedside manner!! Dr Dowd didn’t talk above me - just on my level and he listened when I spoke. Thank you!

Gracious gentleman who listens to you.

Thanks so much for everything you did for me!!!! As I had already had 2 prior knee replacements (in Puerto Rico), the replacement was unbelievable. I mean I had virtually a pain-free experience. The pain management was off-the-charts. You are an excellent doctor and I’m glad I chose you and your staff.

Very through & easy to understand. Best manners.

Appointment was a very pleasant experience, all staff was helpful and everything was on time. IN and out in less than 1 hour. With good advice.

Great!

Very personable and helpful

Great “bedside manner”! Very professional, thorough, caring.

Outstanding Orthopedic Surgeon. My wife and I have the utmost confidence in Dr Dowd. He explained things very well and throughly answered all of our questions.

Been a patient through several procedures. Dr Dowd is always focused and gives attention to me (the patient in front of him). Answers any concerns gives thorough information.

Dr. Dowd clearly explained my situation and options going forward.

Great evaluation of my knees, he was to the point and on target with recommendation which was a shot. The shot has brought relief to my knee and systemically to other joints as well.

Very informative and his recommendations to me will be very beneficial.

Dr Dowd is a true professional - He did surgery on my hip 3 years ago and I had great results. Has an excellent bedside manner!

Spent time thoroughly explaining medical condition and options moving forward.

Very nice. Very helpful

After waiting almost two hours I saw Dr. Dowd for about ten minutes. He suggested physical therapy and gave me no other recommendations. I had heard great things about him and was very disappointed in my visit with him.

Wait for appt. to long

He was to the point, explained everything and that is what is what we wanted. We liked him.

After my visit, I feel confident that Dr. Dowd is the right person to perform my surgery. Follow-up to come in 4 months.

On time, patient, personable. Explains clearly all of your options.

Dr Dow is an excellent doctor he did my hip replacement with no problems three years ago. Now I'm seeing him for my knee and very confident in his skills. He is very polite, courteous and show empathy to his patients. What a blessing to put your hands and his care.

Friendly and very professional.

Dr. Dowd carefully explained my options!

The wait to see the doctor was way too long 50 minutes to be put in a room and 20 minutes more to see the doctor Someone needs to schedule better!

Very personable, easy to talk to, ready to explain. Felt very comfortable with him.

Everyone I encountered was professional, friendly and I felt very comfortable with the process.

Condescending and not a good listener

Very personable, knowledgeable and kind!

Great Doctor! Very knowledgeable and helpful! Highly recommended! ;-)

Dr Dowd is an excellent Dr who has a wonderful caring professional manner.

A legend already . Great personality and he went out of his way to make sure I wasn’t limping at my daughters wedding next week.

So glad to have such a highly rated team of surgical professionals in our area. I was referred by Jordan-Young's Dr. Laurent to his colleague, Dr. Dowd. I was able to make an appointment promptly and was seen without delay on the day of my appointment. X-rays were taken and a diagnosis discussed.

Same as the other Dr I saw at this practice, very helpful and listened to my issues without prejudice. Believed me when I said what was wrong with me. Will continue to use & recommend this organization.

explained everything to me and made me feel comfortable

He sounds very knowledgeable in the field of knee replacement . He answered all questions which erases doubt in mind about the procedure.

Amazing doctor. He remembered me after 20 years even when the system seems to have forgotten me. He took his time and now I know the problem and how to handle it. He is direct, kind, and knowledgable. After almost twenty years with a knee he replaced, I am doing well and almost everything I want to do.

Keep up the great work. My knees fill a lot better.

Excellent visit. Cortisone shots. Knees like almost new!

I appreciated Dr. Dowd’s candid conversation about my long history of right knee problems.

Excellent communication of my knee status, patient and kind bedside manner; knee pain is already improved from injection. I would like to set up surgical date for total knee replacement and appointment to discuss the plan. Thank you.

When I first met Dr. Dowd I was referred by the late Andy Altman. I had a bad experience at Atlantic Orthopedic and he suggested that I see Dr. Dowd and I wasn't disappointed. He is no nonsense and to the point. His work (knee replacement) was exceptional.

Make you feel at ease, listens to what you have to say, and provides options

Dr. Dowd is the best. I have full confidence in him and would not want anyone else to handle my hip replacements. He is not only a great surgeon but has a caring bedside manner.

Dr Dowd is a very concerned doctor. Wanting to make sure his patients are taken care of.

Seems to be quite the people person. Gave valuable information for a total knee replacement. Put me and my wife at ease. I had a knee replacement done 16 years ago and am very happy with that one. Jordan-Young Group are Top Notch!

Made me feel better!

Fast check in, very friendly and helpful, loved Dr. Dowd!

Dr. Dowd was caring and listened intently to my concerns. He came highly recommended and I was pleased with my appointment with him and will use him for my Hip Replacement if I ever need it.

Wonderful to see Dr Dowd!

He's the best. The hour wait was not my favorite>

Consultation and diagnosis took all of 2 minutes.

Dr. Dowd shows concern for his patients and is very approachable.

He was very personable and answered all my questions thoroughly.

Awesome doctor and staff. I recommend this Doctor for anyone who needs orthopedic care

Dr. Dowd was very thorough an explained my hip issue so that I understood what was wrong and how it would be corrected. He was very personable and made me feel comfortable and assured.

Dr. Dowd did my hip replacement 2 years ago and I have never been happier! I like that he is factual and honest with problems - he doesn't rush a patient - he listens but doesn't waste your time.

One of the nicest Doctors I’ve ever met. Really cares about his patients. Glad I chose him to do both my knees. Also, done my sons hip replacement. We r all doing great.

Too long of a wait. Waited 40 min. before getting x-rays and another 15-20 min. before the doctor came in the room.

Good to see such a thorough ortho. Listened to me but heard what he wanted to hear. I’m sure he is a very technically good surgeon. I didn’t have the feeling we were on the same page. Perhaps he wasn’t given enough time for me. He seemed very rushed.

Great doctor, very friendly, and they never keep you waiting!

Wonderful explained everything so I could understand

Extraordinary! I would recommend Dr. Dowd to anyone for resolution of any knee issues. My experience could not have been better. Great communication, caring staff and responsive organization. A+++!

Dr Dowd takes the time to understand the individual patient. He is a surgeon who I have comolete confidence in. He cares enough to learn about the specific and complex problems I face.

Very thorough and and answered my questions in a way that I understood.

Best of the best..absolutely the finest in the area.

Professional, personable and positive.

Great visit! Very efficient. My knee has improved in just a day after a shot.

Dr. Dowd is very easy to talk to. I have confidence in his care.

Dr Dowd was very concerned about my hip and was very courteous and polite, I will definitely be seeing him again when I am ready for surgery.

His reputation speaks for his high marks. Kelsey

He took the time explain the symptoms I am having and the best way to address them.

Very KNOWLEDGEABLE, terrific bedside manner, and super compassionate! He has performed 2 surgeries on me. I’ll never allow anyone else to touch me.

Dr. Dowd was very patient when explaining what was going on with my knee. He took his time and I didn’t feel rushed.

Dr. was my second opinion for me and thought he was knowledgeable of his craft and his explanation of the surgery procedure also showed the care he has for his patients.

Extremely competent. Diagnosis was what I expected, recommendations were measured and appropriate.

He listens to you and makes sur you understand him great personality

Straight to the point. No banter. Love it!

Best qualified and kindest professional Dr. He is very gentle and takes as much time that is necessary to show and talk to you to explain everything. You are never rushed. I highly reccommend him.

Dr.Dowd is friendly and very thorough! Clearly he has many patients to see but I find him to take the time to look at all options in my case!

This man is so gentle and kind i am pleased to call him my surgery. Thank you Doctor🙏.

As always great job

Dr. Dowd was great. Patient and very thorough in answering questions. I will continue to see hom

Dr. Dowd did a very thorough exam of my right knee. When he found out that I was quite ticklish he worked very hard to find a way of not causing this. He was able to locate the most painful area of my knee. As x-rays did not show a problem, his next step was to get an MRI.

I know he is great but hard to converse with sometimes. Overworked and pressured to see more & more patients probably.

So knowledgeable but very willing to answer questions.

5 STARS DR. DOWD IS MY FAVORITE DOCTOR ALWAYS HAPPY TO SEE HIM.

Best orthopedic surgeon! Must call early to get an appointment as he is fully booked. Dr. Dowd takes time with his patients which may mean a little wait but it is well with it. He remembers details about me & makes me feel comfortable. I totally trust him.

Recommended by many family and friends.

Dr. Dowd

could use a few more minutes-always seems rushed

Kind, informative and professional

Listens to you and takes the time to explain treatment options with you. Down to earth, and straight forward.

Dr Dowd has always shown high concern for my care. He is very thorough and clear with his recommendations and listens to my concerns.

Dr. Dowd is an excellent physician. My hip and knee replacements have lasted many years with no complications. I highly recommend him.

Hands d…the best!

Always in a hurry Believe he is a good surgeon but poor bedside manner Doesn’t share much info with patient I am considering another surgeon for my other surgery

Understanding and knowledgable

After waiting 2 hours to see the dr, he gave me all of 5 minutes of his time. Would not even let me finish a complete sentence before cutting me off and did not seem interested in trying to help me because my particular issue does not show up on images and cannot be fixed with the typical hip replacement surgeries that he apparently specializes in. When I made the appointment, I asked for a dr who could help with muscular issues in the hip area. I was assigned this dr but the scheduler, and then he acted as if I was wasting HIS time! The entire office needs to be better organized.

Very informative !,

His recommendation for cortisone yesterday has brought great relief.

Told me a lot about my knee and walking

Listening skills and didn’t rush the visit with me. Entered and treated me with a smile and to my satisfaction. I would definitely recommend Dr Dowd to my friends when and if they need an orthopedist

I have contacted several neighbors and friends that have had procedures by Dr. Dowd, nothing but good/great reviews. looking forward to my knee surgery.

very happy feeling pretty good still kinda early to tell & i have high hopes for no more knee pain :))

Dr. Dowd, besides being an outstandingly fine surgeon, is also an exceptionally nice person.

straightforward, honest and kind

Great personality. Explained everything very well.

Dr.Dowd was very friendly, spent an appropriate amount of time with me, gave me great information to resolve my issue.

Very pleasant experience.

He was very straight forward, listened to me and gave me options. I appreciated Dr. Dowd.

I felt really comfortable talking to him. He was really concerned about my problem and trying to fix it.

My previous orthopedist was a blowhard. Dr. Dowd is knowledgeable and a good listener.

I enjoy working with Dr Dowd; always practical, informative and helpful; straight shooter. When I am ready to get my "other" knee replaced, Dr Dowd will do it! Thanks

Could not have been any happier or comfortable with my visit to Dr. Dowd. Highly recommend!! So fortunate to have found him.

I had my initial appointment with Dr. Dowd regarding ongoing pain in my right knee. Dr. Dowd was referred to me by one of his colleagues. I was very impressed with Dr. Dowd who, after taking X-rays, recommended that I get an MRI. I am now waiting to talk with him again after he has an opportunity to reviews my MRI results and advises me on the next step.

All my questions were addressed. Dr. Dowd is a great doctor and makes you feel like he is listening to you and makes you feel very secure and puts any worries makes them go away.

Listened, offered positive solutions, gave me choices about when to see surgery,

I would like to have been heard a little more of my symptoms felt the doctor didn’t really listen to me

Dr. Dowd is very professional and knowledgeable. He answered all my questions clearly and thoroughly.

What a great experience coming to Jordan Young Institute. Dr. Dowd was very thorough understanding and knowledgeable. He diagnosed my knee injury and 36 hours later feeling like I can run a marathon. Thank you to the great staff and team at Jordan Young Institute. Highly recommend

thorough and approachable

Wish he could've been more receptive to my pain level with regard to the fact that my job requires me to be on my feet all day! Very good, otherwise.

Dr Dowd diagnosed my condition very quickly and provided treatment to solve my problem.

Dr. Dowd always take the time to talk& listen to me. He make me feel I hav a choice with my decisions.

Dr Down was clear in explaining the source of my discomfort, and his treatment was effective.

I liked how he talked to me, what he said, how he said it, and how he listened to me. Great bedside manner.

Very concerned about your health and helpful with any concerns

We were extremely glad to get an appointment with Dowd having heard so many good things, like don't let anyone touch him but Dr. Dowd, he is the best in the area, etc. Appreciate his very attentive listening, and explanation, 0f X-Rays,also encouragement to keep on with PT, and what to expect/goals. thanks very much, Dr. Dowd!

excellent doctor

Need more time with patient

I highly recommend Dr Dowd. He has delivered on his promise to my family members undergoing knee replacement. I wouldn’t go anywhere else.

A quick and easy visit! Dr. Dowd to great communication skills, made me feel at ease and was informative.

Very friendly, explained things well & didn’t seem rushed

Very Professional and reassuring about this difficult procedure.

The best!!

Dr Dowd was great- the wait to see him not so much, waited 1hr 40 mins

DR Dowd is the best

Very concerned, took the time to explain to me what was going on with my knee through exray. I felt very comfortable with him and his staff.

Extremely efficient and personable.

Very disappointed, the doctor did not even examine the body parts that are painful. Felt dismissed, given a referral to PT with no real diagnosis.

Very compassionate care — knowledgeable and considerate. I knew I had the right knee specialist by the way he explained and then injected both knees. Great doctor! Great practice!

Straight forward on options and absolutely no pressure to have a procedure done.

Just not very friendly maybe a bad day but first impression not great

Excellent as a doctor/surgeon!!! Not too much on conversation, which is what I look for in a doctor. I like interaction. I like to feel like my questions are addressed.

I’m a patient with a long orthopedic history. So far I’ve only had one appt with Dr Dowd but I feel comfortable him. The office staff was courteous. The Dr gave an injection and discussed my X-ray. He was friendly and not dismissive. So we’ll see how it goes.

He has really helped my knee pain!! I would highly recommend him to my friends and family!!

Short P/V

Clearly explained the situation with my knees, gave me options to think about.

A lil concern but right away was talking about surgery

Dr Dowd has now replaced both of my knees. He and his staff always address any issues promptly and efficiently, which is appreciated so much given how busy they are and the fast pace of so many things these days. Ellis Williams
