The worst administrative staff I’ve ever dealt with in my 65 years.
While Dr. Schneider is intelligent and attentive, his staff brings the whole experience to the bottom of the barrel

Great visit with Dr. Snyder. The ease at which he put my son’s concerns to rest over a broken bone in his foot was great. Recommend Dr. Snyder to anyone.

I've been seeing Dr. Snyder for about 4 years now. He's wonderful. Started off at Joi did have to hunt him down this time. He listens to me. He takes the time he knows me and he knows when I say I'm hurting or something's not right. He's on it. I highly recommend him. Southeast orthopedics should feel special to have a wonderful, caring doctor

Really liked this Dr! He was very thorough with my exam. He showed me my MRI and explained everything on it. Came up with an immediate treatment plan and didn’t just jump to surgery as being the solution. Had a great bedside manner and didn’t rush the apt. Listened to my concerns with thoughtfulness and empathy without interrupting me. Didn’t like the 1-1/2 it took waiting to actually see him! Place was so packed. Don’t know if it’s normal to go so long past your appointment time.
