Went to LHOA for a broken ankle 12 hours after an ER visit w/x-ray. They did a 2 minute look and…read moreout the door, and the tech comes in an says more x-rays. OK. More x-rays. Then they fitted me for a boot and gave us one that was L for my XS-size foot. Charged me $550 for the boot. Later, at home, and suffering with this anchor on my leg, I looked up replacement boots on Amazon. There is the exact same boot for $69 shipped. So, $481 markup over the Amazon price. That's a 700% markup. You tell me if that's right. So I buy the proper XS-size from Amazon and when I went for my checkup a week later, I tried to return the original boot, telling them that it was misfitted as a L size for my XS leg and it was causing extreme pain and it was their fault. They told me too bad, no refunds. Went through 2 clerks barfing the same predatory nonsense before the office manager came in to tell me to go pound sand. Imagine having a job where your role is to steal from people. So by all means, do go to LHOA if you want MDs that put profit over people. Also, while I was there, Dr. W yelled at 3 techs in the room across from me, telling them, "I have 3 rooms empty, go fill 'em". Because, you know, can't let that money train idle. And finally, when I went to another ortho, Dr. Penny in Torrington, he found that the inside of my tibia had a fracture that LHOA missed. I guess that second and third set of films weren't enough to catch their attention while they were counting their money. But they sure were right on it when it came to jacking me for $481 over the price of that giant boot that we donated to the VA because I heard that Sasquatch was an honorable veteran. LHOA is warehouse medicine at a concierge price. Go see Dr. Penny at Charlotte and see what kind, competent, and human-centered medicine is all about instead of getting treated my MDs who see patients first as profit (gouging) centers. Unbelievable. It's not just insurers ruining medicine.

Dr. Kennon was recommended to me by my long-time physical therapist, who has practiced in the…read moreHartford area for several decades. He was also recommended by a knowledgeable friend. In 2014 he did my left hip, in 2019 my right hip and in 2020 my right knee. All were total replacements. I could not be happier with each result and recommend him unconditionally. All of my surgeries were at the CJRI at St. Francis Hospital in Hartford. While there I talked to several nurses and PT's. All agreed he was one of the top 2 or 3 orthopedic surgeons doing hips and knees in the area. He appears to do a very large number of hips and knees which is one of the things one wants in an orthopedist doing such procedures. My experience, and theirs, was that he combines an excellent surgical technique with a warm bedside manner, spending as much time answering questions and explaining all options and answering questions. I also found all the group's staff to be exceptional, from the PA's to the surgical schedulers. I cannot recommend Dr. Kennon more highly.

From my very first consultation through my hip replacement surgery and recovery, Dr. Kennon demonstrated exceptional skill, professionalism, and compassion. He took the time to explain every step of the process, clearly answered all of my questions with patience, and made me feel confident and cared for. Both surgeries went very smoothly, and my recovery has been remarkable--I'm walking more comfortably and regaining mobility. Dr. Kennon's expertise and warm, reassuring manner made a difficult experience much easier. I am deeply grateful for his dedication and for the outstanding care I received from him, his staff, and the care givers at Mid-State Medical Center in Meriden. The hospital staff was amazing!

I have yet to wait more than 5 minutes to be seen and appointments are not difficult to get. Dr Hakim herself is personable, attentive and sympathetic yet not a pushover. Her treatments always start at the conservative end of the spectrum, moving only toward more invasive options after all other avenues have been truly exhausted. Her bedside manner is excellent and she not only listens to but hears what her patients are saying. I recommend her without any reservations whatsoever.

During the treatment my injury, I was able to use my shoulder much sooner than I thought and was in less pain and discomfort than anticipated. The entire staff is professional, helpful and friendly. I never waited more than a few minutes for any of my appointments, including physical therapy. Geoffrey Russell, PT CSCS is so knowledgeable. He and his team are fantastic. They started me out nice and easy and made sure I was doing my exercises correctly, I appreciate their patience. My shoulder was strong in no time. I felt extremely confident and comfortable in their care and would highly recommend Dr. Wolf and Geoffrey Russell PT.

Orthopedic Associates treat patients like animals on a factory farm - there is no hiding that the…read moremain goal here is profit rather than ensuring care meets the needs and standards expected by patients. In an "hour-long" appointment I was lucky to get 2 minutes of face time with the doctor, who didn't seem particularly interested, just wanted to move on to the next patient. To add to the profit-drive factory farm feel, OAH (and OASC, which, somehow, is a completely separate entity from OAH - although of course they don't explain that to you) have extraordinarily opaque billing practices: In the 2 months since my surgery I have received bills for hundreds of dollars from at least 4 separate "companies" and counting. Along with assorted smaller bills. Follow up care has been disappointing - again, essentially zero time with the doctor (Dr. Stephen Davis) and, instead of referring me to PT or giving me exercises to do, Dr. Davis told me to look up exercises on YouTube. Not really the medical expertise I am looking for, or paying for to be honest. The only good thing is that the Orthopedic Associates Surgery Center is a beautiful facility. The OAH offices (Plainville, etc.) are your typical doctors offices, nothing special, if anything a little more worn and dated than I expected. In all, would not recommend unless they are your only option.

Before the hip surgery I was pained to walk/limp a 1/4 mile. Dr. Keggi's care (Birmingham hip…read moreresurfacing) was transformative, allowing me to return to all activities such as running and hiking that has included some challenging mountain climbs. I feel decades younger and am pain free. Aftercare in the subsequent five years has been fabulous. Dr. Keggi effectively diagnosed a hip problem that was nerve related (and nothing to do with my hip implant which continues to function perfectly). Even before Covid changed options for care delivery, Dr. Keggi and his team accommodated virtual visits (saving me a drive of 450 miles round trip), where other providers, who I considered, were rigidly expecting in-office visits. Original 2018 review: Recently had Birmingham hip resurfacing done by Dr. John Keggi at St Francis Hospital. Dr. Keggi, his office staff and all the staff, from Admission through discharge were, without exception, outstanding. In particular, they were organized, professional, polite, precise and clearly explained all the steps in the process.
