Dr. Jeffrey A. did a good job of explaining to me how the gel injections work for my knees, what kind of shape my knees are in, and what I can continue to do. I'm very happy with the suggestions he made, as well as with scheduling my gel injections.
If you want a doctor who's disrespectful with ZERO bedside manner, THIS IS YOUR DOCTOR! One of the most arrogant cocky unprofessional physicians in the field, if you're looking for someone to belittle, disrespect, and speak to you as if you're not a person then by all means book with Jeffrey. As a doctor you're talking to people in pain most of the time, that pain can cause people's life to be upside down, the last thing you want to deal with is someone who considers himself a "PROFESSIONAL" speak to you so demeaning and disrespectful. If I could give him a -☆ rating I would. Highly recommend finding someone who treats you like a human being and see another doctor's office, this one is not it.
Good surgeon ( I hope) but poor communication. Don’t expect great bedside demeanor. If I can right the ship about miscommunication between NSAIDS postop instructions and a probable lack of review of PT records then hopefully I’ll have a good outcome in a a few weeks. One size fits most postop instructions that are verbally altered needs to be changed. And better communication with your PT staff as to where the patient might be in the postop timeline, should be continual and not left to find out for the worst on their 6 week follow up. Why would the patient or the PT staff know exactly what might be a red flag especially with an atypical surgery? Not too happy.
Professional, caring, excellent surgery experience.
