I read the reviews on Ortho Arizona and decided to have my shoulder looked at. I was told how they have all diagnostic equipment on site. I went there and was seen by Jeffrey Abildgarard. They immediately did an X-Ray. Then I was seen by the doctor. After a few simple test. He couldn’t really explain what was going on. He said the X-Ray looked good. I mentioned that maybe an MRI would show any soft tissue damage. He then asked if I would like an MRI. Well, of course. That’s why I’m here. I was then informed that it’ll take a week or longer to get in for one. Then afterwards, I can schedule an appointment with the Dr to find out my results. Hmm. Did you not hear me that I’m going out of town. Guess not. Then I was told that facility didn’t have an MRI machine. I feel it was a total waste of time
He sure knows how to give a cortizone painless shot! Pleasant dr
Dr A was great! Explained everything thoroughly and answered all my questions :)
His bedside manners suck! Maybe go over results with patients instead them having to pull the info out of you. No I would not recommend to my worst enemy.
Dr Abildgaard accessed my situation and was vested in helping me to determine what’s my best next step. His office was also super fast in booking me an MRI appt for the next day. I am very happy with my experience so far.
Listened and did not rush through my appt
Extremely knowledgeable and communicative
Very personable and attentive
Outstanding evaluation of my situation. Answered all my questions and recommended a plan that fits my needs. Very professional. Would highly recommend.
Great experience, on time, listened to me, gave me treatment options and explained the treatment pros and cons.
