  50. Horrible experience. Injection in hip. Barely walked in given no assistance walking out. Had to go to different doctor and ER to find out it was my spine causing the pain. Called and told them I was counseling my Monday appointment and reason why appointment scheduler offered no apologies just got off the phone

  52. Had a wonderful experience. The staff and doctor was very nice and explained my options and procedures which gave me a clear understanding what I should do

  53. Dr. Bojescul is an EXCELLENT physician. I have nothing but good things to say about him. He has a wonderful light-harded personality which makes his patients feel cared for and comfortable. In my opinion, he should be rated a 10!

  54. They’ll let their patients suffer in pain for some money. I called and asked to get an appointment but they said we can’t schedule you until you pay your bill in full. If I paid that and then we paid our bills we’d literally be in the negatives. Nobody cares about their patients.

  55. Dr Head is fantastic! Takes the time to explain things and listens to your concerns. I’ve had both hips replaced by him and highly recommend Dr. Head. Great bedside manner.

  56. Dr. Pope is an excellent professional hand doctor. I cut my index finger pretty much off with a Skill saw and cut my nuckle in half . Dr. Pope was able to repair it where I could use it agin . I highly recommend him as a hand specialist.

  57. Dr. Bojescule is by far one of the best orthopedic doctors I have seen.
    He is very personable, truly caring and concerned about not only alleviating your pain, but also finding out what the problem is that is causing it.
    Great Doctor!!

  58. It’s always a great experience with Ashley Shelton. She’s kind and patient and has the prettiest smile! That’s helps when you’re making life changing decisions.

  59. Dr. Bojescul is punctual and very efficient. I had been putting off going to the Dr. for my knee pain. I am so glad I did. I am very pleased with service. Everyone was very nice.

  60. First time there in and out fast…They gave me an iPad to fill out and as soon as I turned it in they called me back. Got what I needed. I’m already starting to feel better.
    Thank you so much!

  61. I didn’t sense any compassion. Felt like I was just a number to them. I pray surgery will go well and I receive a little compassion from the Doctor and the staff.

  62. I felt like he understands what I have been dealing with this past 2 years. Started seeing his office 3 months ago. With lots of pain in my hip. His office got to the bottom of what is causing my pain after many attempts with doctors after Covid 19. Office staff wounderful.

  92. Dr Bojo is one of the best hip and knee doctor I’ ve know. He replaced my right hip and i walked out of the hospital the next morning with no pain and never had any pain.
