Super professional
Honestly, I felt like a piece of meat at a processing center. He was in and out in record time. Asked nothing about my history, what I needed, or how I used my shoulder. He proceeded to order physical therapy - something I’ve been doing for over 20 years, which if he’d ask ANY questions would have learned quickly - said my pain wasn’t to a level of needing a shot for relief and ordered an expensive MRI which would have been a complete waste of time if all I was going to do was continue with physical therapy. His nurse/tech then proceeded to tell me I shouldn’t lift my arm above my shoulder…this to a person who swims ocean marathons of 9-12 miles. Switching to JOI.
Dr Murphy is top notch. Consumate professional!
He was very aloof. He didn’t offer any explanations unless I asked. He didn’t even try to find out what’s actually going on.
Great office personality and explained everything carefully and efficiently. Liked the fact I got in and out and had no wait time.
Very helpful and he paid attention to everything I was saying. Felt like he cared thank you
Dr Murphy is exceptionally knowledgeable and a great surgeon. My highest recommendation!
Very professional, respectful, and caring.
Profrssional
Asked great questions relating to the injury. Very personable. Explained the potential possibilities in an easy way to understand and will follow up once MRI results are available.
