Very easy to talk to. He explained everything he was doing.
Wonderful bedside manner
Dr. Terrell was very thorough and knowledgeable about my injury. Which was nerve damage . Although it was my first visit with him. I was very impressed by his professionalism, knowledge and courteous.
He is phenomenal!
So patient, clearly professional and a great surgeon!
A professional caring Physician None better
Other orthopedic surgeon recommended injections to treat symptoms. Dr Terrell recommended actually fixing the problem of a leg discrepancy. I don’t need injections I need the problem fixed and I believe dr Terrell actually helps people. Thank you
Dr. Terrell is the very best there is. Extremely knowledgeable, explains options in detail. He is very kind and down to earth. He surgically repaired my fractured leg and helped my son with his fractured hip. We will always be grateful for Dr. Terrell’s expertise.
Absolutely excellent!!! Highly recommend!!!
I am so pleased with Dr Terrell. He explained everything so well. I liked his printed instructions that he gave because they were not the typical generic type instructions we get so often from most healthcare providers. His instructions were very specific, explaining the specifics about the nutrition and which supplements are needed for optimal healing of orthopedic injuries. I learned a lot and will continue to use this info for my ongoing health long after my injury has healed and resolved.
