Nobody ! Should go here .. I waited 3hrs to not even be taken seriously by a “dr” that showed zero compassion , nor did he give me a definite answer . Very dissatisfied and if I could give this place a negative star I would !!!
I have been waiting over a month for an appointment and still haven’t received one yet and one of the nurses that answers the phone is the rudest person ever…I can’t wait til this is over if I ever get an appointment😔 …
It’s a horribly freaky place. Rude and robotic type of behavior by the staff and doctors alike.
No talents but greedy money making business. One star is too much.but no choice here!
Tha staff was very helpful. After I was hit by a cae, I had to have extensive surgery. The surgeons were very knowledgeable. Thank you for helping me recover.
Horrible experience. This Office waits 3 business days to submit any info to your insurance company. Don’t go if you need anything done in hurry. Very rude nurses and doctors who are unaware of office policies.
The staff is nice but the wait times are terrible. No one should should have to wait over an hour to get called back for a scheduled appointment. I had a shorter wait time at the emergency room.
The wait is terrible. My appointment was at 9:15. I got here a little before 9 and I waited in the waiting room until past 10:45. I asked the receptionist when making the appointment if I would be done by 11:30. At this rate, I won’t even see the doctor until 11.
I’ve paid to have my insurance papers filled out and the PA Derrick filled out my chart incorrectly so the filled out my insurance papers wrong and when I brought it to Jennifer’s attention she get an attitude even though they went back to …
I’m not sure who or what kind of help these doctors are hiring to answer the phone but this is a bad joke. I called last week about making a appointment and was told they would get back with me which they never did. Called again today and …
I LOVE DR. CURTIS HE IS THE BEST. I HAD TWO KNEE REPLACEMENTS AND HE DID A WONDERFUL JOB. I WILL HIGHLY RECOMMEND HIM. HE CARES ABOUT HIS PATIENTS. HE GREAT BEDSISE MANNERS, HE LISTEN TO YOU AND HE ASK QUESTIONS. HE TAKES VERY GOOD CARE OF ME. I COULD GO ON AND ON. DR. JOSEPH CURTIS IS NUMBER ONE IN MY BOOK.
Had an appointment but still waited in the waiting room for over 4 hours. There’s a child in the waiting room right now that is obviously in pain but it doesn’t look like the staff cares. How distopian.
I would recommend my doctor to anyone in need of a Orthopedic Surgeon (Joseph Curtis ).He has taken care of me for years, and I trust every decision he makes concerning my health and wellness.
My fiance appointment was at 9:15 a.m and it is now 10:05am and we still sitting here ..this just don’t make sense Everytime we come here it always the same thing..reason we still come can’t find another surgeon…Lord these people need to …
My dr was very rude. Dr Freeman. I was alone and very nervous. His first words to me was, well maybe you just need to go back home. Didn’t sound like he care very well for my health in getting well. At that point I do not trust him.
Thanks for the info. I have brought 2 devices and snacks I have been here an hour. Update. After over an hour waiting, they tell me they. can’t see me with a reference from all med. It has to be a primary care Drs reference. How can this be urgent care?
Find a different office if you are concerned about identity theft! I could not make an appointment without providing the receptionist my social security number. I have solid, verifiable insurance, but the only way they would see me without …
Would NOT recommend!!! Went in for a second opinion due to moving and not wanting to drive so far, was told due to being black my feet were flat when that has never been discussed in any previous treatment, was in and out complete waste of time! This was at the Montgomery location!!
great facility need to advertise more, excellent staff you must be proud
i seen the best customer service and care ,doctor patient care i have seen
ever be proud and give your staff a salary increase RETAIN RETAIN
The ONLY reason this place gets any stars is because a couple of the Dr’s are pretty good…. the office staff and phone personnel are RUDE!!!! The wait time is extremely long and with soooo many Dr’s and staff I just don’t feel that it …
I have been here on several occasions for my knee both times. I have spent well over 2-3 hours waiting. The walk in clinic has you waiting the entire time!!! 5 -8 pm!!!??? Please if you don’t have to go here please find another place.
Dr. Woessner and Dr. Curtis provided excellent care and there are two ladies up front who were so very kind hearted and who made a painful experience less painful. Thank you Artishia and Mary Cathryn for making sure I was taken care of. Y’all are the best!
I so understand the knowledge of physician, but when they treats you with so much ignorance and come to your room with so much rush, like somebody is chasing him, don’t discuss your treatment and rush back from your room, is so …
This place SUCKS. Doctor called with results but I was unable to answer the call. When I tried to call back all I get is rude staff and nurses that completely have no clue of what is going on. It has been almost a week and still no call …
Dr. Samelson performed hand surgery on me about 6 years ago to reattach a clean cut tendon going to the tip of my finger. After the surgery, I no longer had feeling on one side of my entire finger and still was unable to bend the tip. After …
Do not come here unless you have several hours to spare. While we received great service from the doctor and nurses it’s absurd to wait over an hour to be called back with an appointment. Then to wait another hour or two on the services. I will not be back.
These people are always nice and helpful. Manuel Escobar is usually who I see. He not only is professional and attentive but he is just a really nice guy.
Rumors are true . They take you back per insurance if you have bcbs -great service no wait time. Other insurance after bcbs . No insurance wait-til lobby is empty then get called back people who came in after me were seen before me …
If only they could keep their appointments straight. Appointments were scheduled that I did not schedules Appointment times change without my knowledge. Dr. Curtis is a good doctor but the staff is either incompetent or their booking system has a mind of its own.
The Staff, on the phone, SUCKS!!! They are rude and do not do their jobs, especially the workers comp department. The doctor is Awesome but the staff is NOT. Do NOT call and expect to reach anyone by phone until the next day. When you sign …
Dr. Samelson’s PA was excellent. Gave steroid shot in shoulder but numbed it first so the shot didn’t hurt. Scheduled PT. Therapists were wonderful. But. i didn’t understand a month of PT before surgery since I had been in pain for a year …
I’ve been to Southern Orthopedic for meniscus tears in both knees. Dr. Hester performed my surgery for one, and for the other knee he said surgery wasn’t recommended. I appreciate all the caring and professional staff.
I have been a patient with SOS for over 30yrs, of which included multiple surgeries, Physicial Therapy and a multitude of office appointments. I would not choose any other orthopedic practice for my needs! Dr Mattox and Dr Samelson performed my most recent surgeries, but they are all top notch!!!
Called to make an appointment for my husband. The receptionist would not make the appointment until I provide her my husbands SS #. This should not be a requirement to make an appointment. We are told never give out our SS# yet this …
I was referred to Southern Orthopedic Surgeons for a bucket handle tear in my right lateral meniscus. Dr Curtis got me an mri and surgery within the week and started my healing process. Very impressed the care that I received here and how the handled my situation.
I was told by the person that usually handles their workers comp cases that since they don’t accept workers comp cases from my place of employment that they will file it under my insurance. Well just found out today that this couldn’t …
I had my first hip replacement here with Dr. Robert Howell and his staff. I waited too long for this surgery because I was worried. I had bone on bone, excruciating pain down my entire leg and now that was gone right after surgery. Just a …
Initially, I posted regarding my procedure and deleted due to character defamation. I didn’t want to use this platform to express my anger and disappointment with this glorified surgical center! Let me began to share my nightmare. …
I was treated in the Prattville location by Dr. M. Freeman and I must say he’s a wonderful Dr. also the staff was nice and friendly something you don’t get to often these days so thank you all for doing what you do with a smile and such kindness.
Dr. Hooper went above and beyond to work me in to his, no doubt, full operating schedule on an emergency basis. I was in agony from my injury and were it not for him I would have had to wait overnight either in agony or in an expensive, uncomfortable hospital or, most likely, both.
I’ve been a patient for several years ! The place has become more like a meat market than a helping profession . When the techs take you back they are not personable and barely look at you . They want your money UP front and stress the fact …
My daughter tore her ACL/Menicus from playing basketball. We were seeking a physician to assist us in this matter and Dr. Roland Hester was definitely the wrong doctor. He is not very attentive to his patients nor is he very knowledgeable …
Dr. Curtis is the very best! He did both of my knee replacements. Coming up on my checkup. Can’t wait to see everyone! The staff at the Prattville location are amazing, as well as the PT associates!
I am very happy with my knee replacement. The physical therapy is good also. I dont have to wait long at my appointments. In and out with no hassle. I would recommend sos to any one that needs help
I was told I needed surgery yet was offered no real explanation as to why. Later, when I went for a 2nd opinion somewhere else, the new doctor requested my medical records and the office never supplied them.
Went in tonight after my son had an ankle injury during wrestling practice. Hardly any wait! Very professional, nice, attentive, and understanding. We saw the PA and he could not have been nicer!! Highly recommend! Also a tech that is …
I would highly recommended Southern Orthopedics to anyone! I had a total hip replacement a year ago, the staff, Doctors and everyone involved were amazing! Our family has used them numerous times and being a Basketball Coach for 20 plus …
First visit went well but today I had a scheduled appointment although checking in 15mins before time I waited for an hour. I checked after 30mins waiting with the clerk if I was in the system and it was confirmed that I was. Went back to …
I had the best doctor (Dr. Randall) you could every have to do a complete knee replacement. I was able to stand and do so hard physical therapy at there hospital. When you compare my knee replacement surgery to others they’re still having …
My experience is with Dr. Howell and for the first time in 12 years i can walk normally and with little pain at all. Much more manageable to live with and that’s without taking pain meds. So in my case now 8 months out from surgery and …
Dr.Samuelson is the best. He operated on my husband hand and we were very impressed. The one thing that won us over with him was he asked to pray before surgery. That was huge and we appreciated him doing that cause we were very nervous. …
Each and every physician at Southern Orthopaedic Surgeons is deeply passionate about their patient’s care. Between myself & my immediate family we have seen almost every doctor in the practice. I really appreciate the time & patience that …
Dr. Samelson has helped me with plates and screws after breaking my ankle and some other minor injuries. He has cleaned up my husband’s knee and is now treating a serious infection in his finger. His staff is great in Montgomery and …
SOS has always been there when ive gotten hurt or my children. Ive recommended many of my friends for them and their children. Cant ever imagine having anyone else treat me for my bone issues. Just had q knee replacement on my left knee 4 …
The physical therapists at Southern Orthopedic are very professional and have a good bedside manner with their patients. And they really work you out for physical therapy to get you back to using the body part that need the healing. They motivate you, while they help you get there.
My Mom is 99 years old and I am 71 years old. We both see Dr. Roland Hester at SOS. He is excellent as is his nursing, PA, X-Ray staff, following right in his footsteps with their care and concern. The office staff always try to help in …
EVERY EXPERIENCE I HAVE HAD WITH THE STAFF & DR. MATTOX HAS BEEN HANDLED VERY PROFESSIONALLY & EFFICIENTLY. I HATE PAIN BUT THEY ALWAYS PUT ME AT EASE & TAKE CARE OF MY NEED. I JUST LOVE THE WHOLE TEAM.
Came into the Prattville office with my mom for her scheduled appointment and they were also able to work me in with the nurse practitioner while there. He was attentive and knowledgeable about what was going on with my plantar fasciitis …
This was the first time I have used their emergency services for an injury. I was completely satisfied with everything! Spent much less time here than at the ER! So thankful and if my family or I need services in the future this is where we will be coming, just a wonderful experience
Scheduled an appointment for 9:30. I arrived at 9:25 and checked in. At 10:00, after sitting in the waiting room for 30 minutes, I have to leave to go back to work without seeing the doctor. I would like to say this is not typical, but …

The staff was very caring of all my needs and comfortable. My shoulder surgery has helped me with the pain I was suffering from. I would highly recommend Southern Orthopedic surgeon.
I was very nervous about my first physical session after knee surgery. I didn’t know what to expect. I immediately felt a little relieved because the PT spent ample time asking questions to explore my current physical limitations, pain, and …
Dr. Samelson and the sugerical center team took very good care of me during my knee surgery
They follow up with a call to see how i was doing did I have any question. …
The Doctors and Physical Therapist are top shelf. The doctors are concerned about explaining what is going on with my injury. The therapists are always pleasant and willing to explain what is going on.
I broke my right ankle and the E.R. Referred me to Dr. Hooper with an appointment. I was very hesitant due to some low reviews of SOS as a whole; but especially because I had not seen ANY REVIEWS on Dr. Hooper. However, Dr.Hooper and his …
I came in with a bum knee. Dr. Curtis immediately ordered x-rays. He then reviewed them and prescribed a shot into the front of my knee. He also ordered a knee brace to help stabilize my knee. I have been a patient of Dr. Curtis’ for many years. He’s my favorite. I highly recommend him.
My visit to SOS on Taylor Rd was today 11-19-21
My physician was Dr. Michael Freeman. I love, love, love Dr. Freeman. For two weeks I had debilitating swelling and excruciating pain in my right knee. After …
Pre-Op joint camp, surgery, hospital stay, timely D/C therapy scheduling and therapy appointments went along smoothly. Some difficulty communicating with staff post-op when I had questions, and would have liked to have been able to talk …
Second time I’ve been been here. First time, made us wait for over an hour or more, and they came to help us just as we were leaving out the door. Second time, this feels so personal. We were ther for over an hour and a half and I peeked …
I had shoulder Surgery Oct 2020 and have recovered very well. Dr. Perry Hooper was my surgeon and he always listened and explained options, procedures, and results to me. He didn’t recommend surgery, just to recommend surgery as I have …
Dr. Hooper is the best orthopedic I’ve ever seen! I had rotator cuff repair and bicep repair surgery and had no pain what so ever! Best doctor hands down
Basically the staff sucks….they quote company policies yet it changes daily. Oh yeah it should take 3 calls to get a prescription that they where supposed to call in. …
Carrie in Rehab was so pleasant and helpful in my therapy. A little pain but a great experience. Explained everything and why I had to do these exercises. I would definitely recommend Southern Orthopedics and their Rehab!

My family and I have seen Dr Freeman frequently over the years. I have tremendous confidence in his abilities. He is also a good person. His staff is courteous and well trained. On my last visit I only waited about 20 minutes.
Dr. Austin Worley was great. He listened to my concerns and provided an overall assessment. He took the time to educate me on best practices as well as provided a plan of action for my foot fracture.
I had my neck worked on by Brian gandy. He was excellent took time to explain the exercises for me and made me feel very comfortable. The front staff are very knowledgeable and very helpful for any kind of questions that you may have as …
Better listening and being less personal towards the patients personal life would be helpful. Would not recommend this practice to anyone. The amount of patience, listening skills, and respect these practicioners have is zero. I’ve seen two different ones and I’m furious I’ve wasted my time and money at this practice.
Dr. Joe Curtis is an attentive physician and an exceptional surgeon. I have referred family and friends to Southern Orthopaedic Surgeons for over 25 years. I am thankful for such a dedicated professional, and for his equally dedicated medical affiliates and support staff.
I brought my daughter here after hours because she hurt her ankle/leg. We had a very short wait, she went straight to X-rays and the doctor was there when she got back. It was broken so she got a cast. Everyone there was so so nice and we were in and out in less than an hour! Great Experience!
So I had carpal tunnel surgery which was the first surgery I’ve ever had and Dr. Mattox was the Dr who did it and when I say from the beginning which started out with the Dr visit leading up to the surgery and the visit after the surgery my …
The Doctor was concerned and attentive to my health problem. He prescribed meds, MRI to find out root cause and explained in detail the process. I do appreciate his help.
I’ve seen three doctors at this practice, and have felt good about my care from all three. Didn’t suggest procedures I didn’t need (as had happened in the past) and the care I received was stellar.
I absolutely love Dr. MATTOX… He really cares about his patients. Very compassionate and sympathetic to the needs of you. He treats you like you matter and not according to text book. He explains EVERYTHING clearly so you are never …
Dr. Samelson is an amazing surgeon. If you ask the most knowledgable people in the the medical business (the nurses) you will find out Dr. Samelson is VERY highly regarded. He did some orthopedic work on my knee last month and it is turning …
My best friend was going to have knee surgery and they called to tell her they are canceling the surgery 2 days before surgery.

For over 30 years when I had orthopedic concerns I have been going to Dr Mike Freeman. He has always been the best. Even when I didn’t do what he told me to do. Yes…I can be a bit stubborn. I have had the pleasure of watching his practice grow. I appreciate him and the SOS team so very much.
Great place, professional staff, only needed the services of one surgeon, but the pre- surgery, post surgery is outstanding. They seem to care, Great to have a facility nearby for physical therapy far exceeds the other one in the area. Great job by far. Keep up the good work!
Dr. Hester is such an awesome doctor! He listens to your concerns with a great desire to help you get the relief you need. He has performed surgery on my knee for a torn meniscus, a left lip replacement, and I’m seeing him now for a impinged shoulder. He’s the best!
Fell and had a knee issue. Dr Randall got me right in, discussed the problem, listened to my explanation and then I listened to his, about what was happening. I cannot express how confident I am in this Dr. He listens and acts.
I have been using Dr. Randall and his team for about 4 years for all of my Orthopedic needs. It seems to be more often in the last couple of years. Getting old is not for the faint of heart! I could not be happier with a doctor. Dr. …

Friendly precise treatment from the moment I walked in the door. No time wasted. I was immediately given a tablet, which was very convenient due to my neuropathy, if you feel out necessary paperwork. No sooner did I finish then I was …
Waited over an hour to be “seen” by the physician. We were called back to have a cast put on and never met the doctor. Discharged without a discussion on plan of care, limitations or how to manage/care for cast with a child
Thank you, Dr. Tucker Mattox, for fixing my knee. Although it’s only 2 1/2 weeks post op, I’m confident that when healed I will be able to continue with my previous active activities. Thank you for your time and expertise in keeping up with …
Bryan Gandy at Southern Orthopedic Surgeons is fabulous! He is extremely knowledgeable, professional and caring. It’s abundantly obvious that he truly cares about his patients. I would highly recommend him to anyone needing a physical therapist.
Dr. Hester seemed very competent. He was straight forward and informative. Still, he seemed like he was rushing through my appointment. Maybe he was running behind schedule that day.
Both my wife and I had appointments with Dr. Randall at Southern Orthopedic Surgens located in Wetumpka today. We were treated very well and with nothing but respect. Follow-up treatment has all been set up for next week. Surgery is in the cards, but we have all the faith in Dr. Randall and the entire staff. Thank you SOS…

They claim after surgery my mom just died no answers no nothing her surgery was 6/28 and now I got to make funeral arrangements
Efficient and professional care staff caring and helpful
It’s a horribly freaky place. Rude and robotic type of behavior by the staff and doctors alike.
No talents but greedy money making business. One star is too much.but no choice here!
I highly recommend Southern Orthopaedic Surgeons..
Excellent group – have used both professionally and personally. Great outcomes. Highly recommend!
Dr. Roland Hester is without a doubt one of the best orthopedic doctors in Alabama
Very personable and willing to answer
all questions.
Dr. Curtis, Leigh Ann and staff are great. My questions and concerns were answered and attended too.
Two knee replacement work to the best it can.
I would not go to anyone else but Dr Mattox…
This is a great place to go get help on any part of your body .
Had a hip replacement and really appreciate the care that I received from everyone involved.
Tha staff was very helpful. After I was hit by a cae, I had to have extensive surgery. The surgeons were very knowledgeable. Thank you for helping me recover.
Manual Escobar CRNP, is absolutely fantastic. Very compassionate and caring. Listens to you and is very attentive.
Horrible experience. This Office waits 3 business days to submit any info to your insurance company. Don’t go if you need anything done in hurry. Very rude nurses and doctors who are unaware of office policies.
Very nice people to look after your needs. Would for sure go to them again.
Good care and timely appointments.
Courteous, respectful and caring.
The staff is pleasant and helpful. I use the Prattville location, and have had no problems.
The staff is nice but the wait times are terrible. No one should should have to wait over an hour to get called back for a scheduled appointment. I had a shorter wait time at the emergency room.
Everyone is so nice and makes you feel at home.
A caring, friendly dr. He cares about pt. well being.
The wait is terrible. My appointment was at 9:15. I got here a little before 9 and I waited in the waiting room until past 10:45. I asked the receptionist when making the appointment if I would be done by 11:30. At this rate, I won’t even see the doctor until 11.
The examination was through. Dr. Thomas took his time to explain everything to me.
I’ve paid to have my insurance papers filled out and the PA Derrick filled out my chart incorrectly so the filled out my insurance papers wrong and when I brought it to Jennifer’s attention she get an attitude even though they went back to …
I’m not sure who or what kind of help these doctors are hiring to answer the phone but this is a bad joke. I called last week about making a appointment and was told they would get back with me which they never did. Called again today and …
Process was very quick. Maybe because only one other patient was there, but got to the back and was seen almost instantly. Will go back if need be.
Excellent care by Dr. Curtis. He is extremely knowledgeable and has great people skills.
tore a tendon and went to wrong office but they admitted me anyway due to the type of injury. Already scheduling surgery times in 3 days.
There was a very short waiting period. The doctors are very professional.
Dr. Hester is excellent & his bedside manner is impeccable! I recommend Southern Ortho to anyone I meet in need of ortho care.
Nice friendly staff and Dr Worley was great.
Dr. Howell is very thorough and listens to what I have to say. Shows true concern for my issues.
Always helpful and informative.
Dr. Randall takes time to listen and offers the best course of action.
I LOVE DR. CURTIS HE IS THE BEST. I HAD TWO KNEE REPLACEMENTS AND HE DID A WONDERFUL JOB. I WILL HIGHLY RECOMMEND HIM. HE CARES ABOUT HIS PATIENTS. HE GREAT BEDSISE MANNERS, HE LISTEN TO YOU AND HE ASK QUESTIONS. HE TAKES VERY GOOD CARE OF ME. I COULD GO ON AND ON. DR. JOSEPH CURTIS IS NUMBER ONE IN MY BOOK.
My husband has improved in his mobility since having physical therapy.
Great Dr…Great staff…Great facility. Very pleased with my surgery.
Had an appointment but still waited in the waiting room for over 4 hours. There’s a child in the waiting room right now that is obviously in pain but it doesn’t look like the staff cares. How distopian.
Every one was very nice from checking in to checkout.
Nicest staff around. In and out as fast as possible. The facility is clean and very comfortable.
I would recommend my doctor to anyone in need of a Orthopedic Surgeon (Joseph Curtis ).He has taken care of me for years, and I trust every decision he makes concerning my health and wellness.
My fiance appointment was at 9:15 a.m and it is now 10:05am and we still sitting here ..this just don’t make sense Everytime we come here it always the same thing..reason we still come can’t find another surgeon…Lord these people need to …
Great physical therapy! Easily accommodated my schedule and took her time with me during my appt time. Thank you!
My dr was very rude. Dr Freeman. I was alone and very nervous. His first words to me was, well maybe you just need to go back home. Didn’t sound like he care very well for my health in getting well. At that point I do not trust him.
Excellent service and care. Dr Samelson is awesome and Bryan Gandy is a great PT.
Thanks for the info. I have brought 2 devices and snacks I have been here an hour. Update. After over an hour waiting, they tell me they. can’t see me with a reference from all med. It has to be a primary care Drs reference. How can this be urgent care?
I received an injection in my knee. Although I have to give it time to take effect, I can already feel a difference.
Find a different office if you are concerned about identity theft! I could not make an appointment without providing the receptionist my social security number. I have solid, verifiable insurance, but the only way they would see me without …
Would NOT recommend!!! Went in for a second opinion due to moving and not wanting to drive so far, was told due to being black my feet were flat when that has never been discussed in any previous treatment, was in and out complete waste of time! This was at the Montgomery location!!
Dr. Freeman and the entire staff at SOS Montgomery are great. Courteous, professional and very personable. I highly recommend SOS and Dr. Freeman.
Great visit, appointment was right on schedule, Dr. Freeman was spot on with diagnosis!
Dr Sellers did a wonderful job with the surgery to my hands
Everyone was very professional. I would certainly refer a friend.
great facility need to advertise more, excellent staff you must be proud
i seen the best customer service and care ,doctor patient care i have seen
ever be proud and give your staff a salary increase RETAIN RETAIN
The x-ray tech was great as was Dr. Samuelson
The ONLY reason this place gets any stars is because a couple of the Dr’s are pretty good…. the office staff and phone personnel are RUDE!!!! The wait time is extremely long and with soooo many Dr’s and staff I just don’t feel that it …
I have been here on several occasions for my knee both times. I have spent well over 2-3 hours waiting. The walk in clinic has you waiting the entire time!!! 5 -8 pm!!!??? Please if you don’t have to go here please find another place.
Dr. Woessner and Dr. Curtis provided excellent care and there are two ladies up front who were so very kind hearted and who made a painful experience less painful. Thank you Artishia and Mary Cathryn for making sure I was taken care of. Y’all are the best!
I so understand the knowledge of physician, but when they treats you with so much ignorance and come to your room with so much rush, like somebody is chasing him, don’t discuss your treatment and rush back from your room, is so …
Great service. Learned that the Dr. Was from my home town.
This place SUCKS. Doctor called with results but I was unable to answer the call. When I tried to call back all I get is rude staff and nurses that completely have no clue of what is going on. It has been almost a week and still no call …
Dr. Samelson performed hand surgery on me about 6 years ago to reattach a clean cut tendon going to the tip of my finger. After the surgery, I no longer had feeling on one side of my entire finger and still was unable to bend the tip. After …
Love the staff and doctors! Very good experience
The therapist were friendly and helpful. She listened and made a plan for me that was helpful in the recovery for my shoulder.
Dr. Maddox is a great doctor. He listened to my concerns. And then answered all my questions.
Dr and staff very helpful. Polite and courteous. Dr Samuelson explains everything very well. Thankful for him and his staff
Dr Maddox was very thorough & as always I was very satisfied with my service @ Southern Orthopedics.
Do not come here unless you have several hours to spare. While we received great service from the doctor and nurses it’s absurd to wait over an hour to be called back with an appointment. Then to wait another hour or two on the services. I will not be back.
You always put your patients first take time to explain what going on 👍 …
These people are always nice and helpful. Manuel Escobar is usually who I see. He not only is professional and attentive but he is just a really nice guy.
Rumors are true . They take you back per insurance if you have bcbs -great service no wait time. Other insurance after bcbs . No insurance wait-til lobby is empty then get called back people who came in after me were seen before me …
If only they could keep their appointments straight. Appointments were scheduled that I did not schedules Appointment times change without my knowledge. Dr. Curtis is a good doctor but the staff is either incompetent or their booking system has a mind of its own.
I have received excellent care for my broken arm from Dr Curtis at Southern Orthopaedic Surgeons. I highly recommend this group plus their PT unit.
The Staff, on the phone, SUCKS!!! They are rude and do not do their jobs, especially the workers comp department. The doctor is Awesome but the staff is NOT. Do NOT call and expect to reach anyone by phone until the next day. When you sign …
Dr Sellers is AMAZING I’m very happy he was the one to get my arm fixed up!
Start to finish, a great experience! Everyone was pleasant, efficient and knowledgeable. Will recommend to everyone!
Very impressed with the cheerfulness of all employees we encountered. No long waits.
Dr. Samelson’s PA was excellent. Gave steroid shot in shoulder but numbed it first so the shot didn’t hurt. Scheduled PT. Therapists were wonderful. But. i didn’t understand a month of PT before surgery since I had been in pain for a year …
Dr. Howell and the entire staff provided excellent care and interest in my concerns. Excellent bed side manner…Thanks Dr Howell and staff..
I’ve been to Southern Orthopedic for meniscus tears in both knees. Dr. Hester performed my surgery for one, and for the other knee he said surgery wasn’t recommended. I appreciate all the caring and professional staff.
Friendly caring staff! Everybody did their job with a smile. No complaints!
I have been a patient with SOS for over 30yrs, of which included multiple surgeries, Physicial Therapy and a multitude of office appointments. I would not choose any other orthopedic practice for my needs! Dr Mattox and Dr Samelson performed my most recent surgeries, but they are all top notch!!!
Called to make an appointment for my husband. The receptionist would not make the appointment until I provide her my husbands SS #. This should not be a requirement to make an appointment. We are told never give out our SS# yet this …
I was referred to Southern Orthopedic Surgeons for a bucket handle tear in my right lateral meniscus. Dr Curtis got me an mri and surgery within the week and started my healing process. Very impressed the care that I received here and how the handled my situation.
I was told by the person that usually handles their workers comp cases that since they don’t accept workers comp cases from my place of employment that they will file it under my insurance. Well just found out today that this couldn’t …
I had my first hip replacement here with Dr. Robert Howell and his staff. I waited too long for this surgery because I was worried. I had bone on bone, excruciating pain down my entire leg and now that was gone right after surgery. Just a …
Been going to SOS for various reasons for almost 10 years. Always have had excellent care. Dr’s are very informative and caring.
Dr Samelson is the greatest Orthopaedic Doctor of all times.
Initially, I posted regarding my procedure and deleted due to character defamation. I didn’t want to use this platform to express my anger and disappointment with this glorified surgical center! Let me began to share my nightmare. …
I was treated in the Prattville location by Dr. M. Freeman and I must say he’s a wonderful Dr. also the staff was nice and friendly something you don’t get to often these days so thank you all for doing what you do with a smile and such kindness.
Dr. Hooper went above and beyond to work me in to his, no doubt, full operating schedule on an emergency basis. I was in agony from my injury and were it not for him I would have had to wait overnight either in agony or in an expensive, uncomfortable hospital or, most likely, both.
I’ve been a patient for several years ! The place has become more like a meat market than a helping profession . When the techs take you back they are not personable and barely look at you . They want your money UP front and stress the fact …
Dr. Cutis was straight to the point. Caught something that the radiologist didn’t even catch top notch for sure
I had a great experience! Very prompt service and Dr. Worley was extremely nice and very caring and knowledgeable.
My daughter tore her ACL/Menicus from playing basketball. We were seeking a physician to assist us in this matter and Dr. Roland Hester was definitely the wrong doctor. He is not very attentive to his patients nor is he very knowledgeable …
Great Dr love his energy, attitude would recommend him to anybody that I know…thank u for everything
Dr. Curtis is the very best! He did both of my knee replacements. Coming up on my checkup. Can’t wait to see everyone! The staff at the Prattville location are amazing, as well as the PT associates!
I am very happy with my knee replacement. The physical therapy is good also. I dont have to wait long at my appointments. In and out with no hassle. I would recommend sos to any one that needs help
I was told I needed surgery yet was offered no real explanation as to why. Later, when I went for a 2nd opinion somewhere else, the new doctor requested my medical records and the office never supplied them.
Great doctors and physical therapist who genuinely care about the patient
Went in tonight after my son had an ankle injury during wrestling practice. Hardly any wait! Very professional, nice, attentive, and understanding. We saw the PA and he could not have been nicer!! Highly recommend! Also a tech that is …
Dr Curtis is very sweet and very professional. I will recommend him to anyone

I would highly recommended Southern Orthopedics to anyone! I had a total hip replacement a year ago, the staff, Doctors and everyone involved were amazing! Our family has used them numerous times and being a Basketball Coach for 20 plus …
First visit went well but today I had a scheduled appointment although checking in 15mins before time I waited for an hour. I checked after 30mins waiting with the clerk if I was in the system and it was confirmed that I was. Went back to …
I had the best doctor (Dr. Randall) you could every have to do a complete knee replacement. I was able to stand and do so hard physical therapy at there hospital. When you compare my knee replacement surgery to others they’re still having …
First knee surgery then hand/wrist. Drs did great job on both. Answered all my questions and explained the things I didn’t understand.

Great experience with Southern Orthopaedics. Dr. Worley was very professional and and did an amazing job.
Dr. Hester was very nice and professional. He was very thorough in handling my complaint about my hip.
My experience is with Dr. Howell and for the first time in 12 years i can walk normally and with little pain at all. Much more manageable to live with and that’s without taking pain meds. So in my case now 8 months out from surgery and …
It was very nice and understanding and dr. Worley was the first doctor in a long time that listen to me about my wrist.
Dr.Samuelson is the best. He operated on my husband hand and we were very impressed. The one thing that won us over with him was he asked to pray before surgery. That was huge and we appreciated him doing that cause we were very nervous. …
Each and every physician at Southern Orthopaedic Surgeons is deeply passionate about their patient’s care. Between myself & my immediate family we have seen almost every doctor in the practice. I really appreciate the time & patience that …
Dr. Samelson has helped me with plates and screws after breaking my ankle and some other minor injuries. He has cleaned up my husband’s knee and is now treating a serious infection in his finger. His staff is great in Montgomery and …

Came into the Prattville office with my mom for her scheduled appointment and they were also able to work me in with the nurse practitioner while there. He was attentive and knowledgeable about what was going on with my plantar fasciitis …
Dr Maddox is great everytime. Wait time sucks a little but the earlier the better for appointments if possible.
This was the first time I have used their emergency services for an injury. I was completely satisfied with everything! Spent much less time here than at the ER! So thankful and if my family or I need services in the future this is where we will be coming, just a wonderful experience
Scheduled an appointment for 9:30. I arrived at 9:25 and checked in. At 10:00, after sitting in the waiting room for 30 minutes, I have to leave to go back to work without seeing the doctor. I would like to say this is not typical, but …
Excellent service at the reception, excellent, thoughtful care from Dr. Sellers. Very pleased, definitely recommend this clinic.

The staff was very caring of all my needs and comfortable. My shoulder surgery has helped me with the pain I was suffering from. I would highly recommend Southern Orthopedic surgeon.

They follow up with a call to see how i was doing did I have any question. …
The Doctors and Physical Therapist are top shelf. The doctors are concerned about explaining what is going on with my injury. The therapists are always pleasant and willing to explain what is going on.
I broke my right ankle and the E.R. Referred me to Dr. Hooper with an appointment. I was very hesitant due to some low reviews of SOS as a whole; but especially because I had not seen ANY REVIEWS on Dr. Hooper. However, Dr.Hooper and his …
I came in with a bum knee. Dr. Curtis immediately ordered x-rays. He then reviewed them and prescribed a shot into the front of my knee. He also ordered a knee brace to help stabilize my knee. I have been a patient of Dr. Curtis’ for many years. He’s my favorite. I highly recommend him.
My visit to SOS on Taylor Rd was today 11-19-21
My physician was Dr. Michael Freeman. I love, love, love Dr. Freeman. For two weeks I had debilitating swelling and excruciating pain in my right knee. After …
Pre-Op joint camp, surgery, hospital stay, timely D/C therapy scheduling and therapy appointments went along smoothly. Some difficulty communicating with staff post-op when I had questions, and would have liked to have been able to talk …
Second time I’ve been been here. First time, made us wait for over an hour or more, and they came to help us just as we were leaving out the door. Second time, this feels so personal. We were ther for over an hour and a half and I peeked …
I had shoulder Surgery Oct 2020 and have recovered very well. Dr. Perry Hooper was my surgeon and he always listened and explained options, procedures, and results to me. He didn’t recommend surgery, just to recommend surgery as I have …
Dr. Hooper is the best orthopedic I’ve ever seen! I had rotator cuff repair and bicep repair surgery and had no pain what so ever! Best doctor hands down
Basically the staff sucks….they quote company policies yet it changes daily. Oh yeah it should take 3 calls to get a prescription that they where supposed to call in. …
Dr. Hester has been AMAZING, he has been very professional and I believe my surgery went ok, only time will tell
Dr. Hester is an absolute dream. So compassionate, so informative and so pleasant. God led me to this physician.and this facility.
Dr. Sellers did an awesome job with my Carpal Tunnel Repair procedure. I was able to start using my hand within a week a few limitations.
Carrie in Rehab was so pleasant and helpful in my therapy. A little pain but a great experience. Explained everything and why I had to do these exercises. I would definitely recommend Southern Orthopedics and their Rehab!
Very happy with Dr Hester’s surgery on me as well as our office visits, both before and after. Would definitely recommend.

I was treated with respect and Dr Curtis took the time to explain everything about the surgery
Dr. Austin Worley was great. He listened to my concerns and provided an overall assessment. He took the time to educate me on best practices as well as provided a plan of action for my foot fracture.

I had my neck worked on by Brian gandy. He was excellent took time to explain the exercises for me and made me feel very comfortable. The front staff are very knowledgeable and very helpful for any kind of questions that you may have as …
Better listening and being less personal towards the patients personal life would be helpful. Would not recommend this practice to anyone. The amount of patience, listening skills, and respect these practicioners have is zero. I’ve seen two different ones and I’m furious I’ve wasted my time and money at this practice.
Dr. Joe Curtis is an attentive physician and an exceptional surgeon. I have referred family and friends to Southern Orthopaedic Surgeons for over 25 years. I am thankful for such a dedicated professional, and for his equally dedicated medical affiliates and support staff.
I brought my daughter here after hours because she hurt her ankle/leg. We had a very short wait, she went straight to X-rays and the doctor was there when she got back. It was broken so she got a cast. Everyone there was so so nice and we were in and out in less than an hour! Great Experience!
So I had carpal tunnel surgery which was the first surgery I’ve ever had and Dr. Mattox was the Dr who did it and when I say from the beginning which started out with the Dr visit leading up to the surgery and the visit after the surgery my …
The Doctor was concerned and attentive to my health problem. He prescribed meds, MRI to find out root cause and explained in detail the process. I do appreciate his help.
I’ve seen three doctors at this practice, and have felt good about my care from all three. Didn’t suggest procedures I didn’t need (as had happened in the past) and the care I received was stellar.
I absolutely love Dr. MATTOX… He really cares about his patients. Very compassionate and sympathetic to the needs of you. He treats you like you matter and not according to text book. He explains EVERYTHING clearly so you are never …
Dr. Samelson is an amazing surgeon. If you ask the most knowledgable people in the the medical business (the nurses) you will find out Dr. Samelson is VERY highly regarded. He did some orthopedic work on my knee last month and it is turning …
My best friend was going to have knee surgery and they called to tell her they are canceling the surgery 2 days before surgery. Because she is diabetic and there is to meany concerns with her diabetes. She has been waiting 2 months to have surgery. She tore her meniscus. Do not come her wasting your time .
This place has very good doctors. And that is what matters. And why I give five stars. Dr. Samuelson is very good. He did surgery on my shoulder and all went very good. Would definitely recommend. The check in process at SOS for …
It’s been a month since my surgery and according to my PT personnel I am ahead of the game. Been off pain meds for over two weeks. Hope to have my other knee done after October. Dr Mattox is great

For over 30 years when I had orthopedic concerns I have been going to Dr Mike Freeman. He has always been the best. Even when I didn’t do what he told me to do. Yes…I can be a bit stubborn. I have had the pleasure of watching his practice grow. I appreciate him and the SOS team so very much.
Great place, professional staff, only needed the services of one surgeon, but the pre- surgery, post surgery is outstanding. They seem to care, Great to have a facility nearby for physical therapy far exceeds the other one in the area. Great job by far. Keep up the good work!
Dr. Hester is such an awesome doctor! He listens to your concerns with a great desire to help you get the relief you need. He has performed surgery on my knee for a torn meniscus, a left lip replacement, and I’m seeing him now for a impinged shoulder. He’s the best!
Fell and had a knee issue. Dr Randall got me right in, discussed the problem, listened to my explanation and then I listened to his, about what was happening. I cannot express how confident I am in this Dr. He listens and acts.
I have been using Dr. Randall and his team for about 4 years for all of my Orthopedic needs. It seems to be more often in the last couple of years. Getting old is not for the faint of heart! I could not be happier with a doctor. Dr. …
SOS has always been great. From emergency foot surgery almost 20 years ago to a recent wrist issue that will need surgery. The doctors and staff are very knowledgeable and explain everything in detail. I haven’t had any issues with any appointments, staff or procedures.
Very efficient! Listened, took x-rays, came up with a plan, and was treated quickly. Definitely highly recommend Dr. Worley!
Dr. Samuelson is one of the absolute best orthopedic surgeons in the entire country. I’ve been under his care now for 18 months, and after extensive surgery, I am on the road to recovery for shoulder surgery. If you want to say one of the …

Friendly precise treatment from the moment I walked in the door. No time wasted. I was immediately given a tablet, which was very convenient due to my neuropathy, if you feel out necessary paperwork. No sooner did I finish then I was …
Waited over an hour to be “seen” by the physician. We were called back to have a cast put on and never met the doctor. Discharged without a discussion on plan of care, limitations or how to manage/care for cast with a child
Extremely professional. Staff was friendly. The Doctor took time to thoroughly explain everything and patiently answered all my questions.
Thank you, Dr. Tucker Mattox, for fixing my knee. Although it’s only 2 1/2 weeks post op, I’m confident that when healed I will be able to continue with my previous active activities. Thank you for your time and expertise in keeping up with …
Bryan Gandy at Southern Orthopedic Surgeons is fabulous! He is extremely knowledgeable, professional and caring. It’s abundantly obvious that he truly cares about his patients. I would highly recommend him to anyone needing a physical therapist.
Dr. Hester seemed very competent. He was straight forward and informative. Still, he seemed like he was rushing through my appointment. Maybe he was running behind schedule that day.
Both my wife and I had appointments with Dr. Randall at Southern Orthopedic Surgens located in Wetumpka today. We were treated very well and with nothing but respect. Follow-up treatment has all been set up for next week. Surgery is in the cards, but we have all the faith in Dr. Randall and the entire staff. Thank you SOS…
Dr. Randall saved my life and my husband’s life!! I thank God for him everyday! This is a great place I would recommend to anyone. I’m glad he’s our doctor and has done many surgeries for us!
Excellent provider with great bedside manner. Extremely gracious with his time and easy to understand his instructions and explanation of treatment plan. Would recommend Dr. Sellers to anyone seeking high level orthopedic care.
We moved here a year ago and had to visit Montgomery SOS due to a broken foot incurred during the move. We did not know who to go to but they were recommended by our realtor. Level of care was fantastic and medical staff was.very …
My Wife and Family have been using SOS forever. Dr. Fletcher has seen my entire family a number of time over the past 40+ years, SOS is the best!

Fantastic experience with my first visit to this office, good location near the interstate, and great environment. Short wait, and a vast amount of experience in this building. It’s nice having everything close or in one spot like this. I was given a great deal of information on what to expect for my upcoming surgery.

Doctor Sellers is definitely a refreshing addition to SOS. He is fully knowledgeable of all the latest procedures and technology, and works to help me understand all the options available for treatment. After we decide on the best alternative, he follows through carefully and completely.

I am only giving 1 star because thats as low as you can go..she needs a 0..I saw Amy Cassidy, NP and was treated horribly. She didn’t want to listen to my opinion on what Dr. I should be referred to and had no compassion for someone in a lot of pain and can barely walk.
Enjoyed my visit with Chad and crew. All were professional and willing to listen and help with my needs. Will tell others to check them out and get an A+ service.
Dr. Worley was very prompt. Very nice manners. He solved the problem in my shoulder. All the staff was so very kind. My appt was on time. I like that about this office cause we all have things to do. Thank you Dr.
This was my first visit with Dr Randall. I was very satisfied with the experience. He was knowledgeable and caring. He listed to my issues and discussed treatment options with me. He will definitively be our family’s go to orthopedic doctor. For the first time in months my pain was relieved.
Dr. Freeman did a great job on my knee. The physical therapist were also great. The after operation Care at Baptist was not the best.

Dr. Joseph Curtis at Southern Orthopaedic Surgeons is the “Best”. He is professional, courteous and an Outstanding surgeon. He has performed surgery on me twice throughout the years. Both times I have been very pleased with the results. I would highly recommend him.

Everyone at Southern Orthopaedic was very nice. The wait time wasn’t long and I love that check-in and paperwork we’re all digital. Dr. Mattox listened and took his time to explain my options for correcting the issue. I am definitely glad I was referred to him.
