Years ago, I broke my wrist really badly, and they did my surgery, and then all the therapy I…read moreneeded to be able to use it as before. They took excellent care of me, and I have had no issues with it since the accident. I recently had them check out my artificial hip, which, after many years, has started popping out of joint. I originally had the hip done at Augusta Medical College, but it now needs a revision. Dr. Holtzclaw examined me and is a good man to deal with. I am now waiting on clearances from other physicians to have it fixed. The front office personnel treat you like family. If I could give 7 stars, I would!

I had a generally positive experience with the medical side of Chatham Orthopedics. The doctors and…read morenurses I interacted with were professional, respectful, and provided good care overall. That said, my experience with the billing and payment process was extremely frustrating. Before surgery, while I was injured, vulnerable, and had not even had time to collect a paycheck, I received multiple separate payment demands. The surgery center told me I needed to pay about $2,000 up front and indicated that was the only up-front payment I would be responsible for. Then the physician's office contacted me requesting another $1,500 and also represented that as the only payment I needed to make. After that, the anesthesiologist contacted me requesting roughly another $1,000 before surgery. It felt relentless and deeply stressful at a time when I was already dealing with a serious injury and preparing for surgery. I ultimately paid the surgery center, but the whole process became even more frustrating because my insurance out-of-pocket maximum is $3,500. Because of the way these charges were handled, my insurance has been slow to catch up, and I have had to keep paying money out of pocket even though I should be at or near the point where my insurance covers 100%. I understand that medical billing is complicated, but the way this was handled felt disorganized and unnecessarily aggressive. The care itself was good, and I respect the nurses and doctors, but the financial experience left a very bad impression.

On August 30 2024, Ernie released me to resume all activities. That was 6 weeks and 1 day after complete left knee replacement. I played Pickleball that same day.

Liked doctor OK seems to know what he is doing but is too rushed to hear what you are saying or listen to anything new. I HATE office staff and office manager refused to come to talk with me for the second time today. They will not get another penny of my money they are not the only group in town and the other group worked on me for a Workers Comp and were 100 times nicer. The only problem is my insurance has alreay paid for my MRI and they keep making excuses why I can not ge a copy of the MRI - I called insurance company and advise and they are going to demand a copy be mailed to me or they will recover full refund and make me not liable for the bill so a new doctor can make one. Today I wated 45 min for a copy to be made asked for office manager. The girl left came back 1 min later said supervisor on phone and office manager wanted to know what I wanted before she would walk up to front. I told receoptionist she walked off came back 1 min later and said supervisor said to have a seat and she would be with me in 10 - 15 min when she finished her call. I told them I already waited 45 min and I could not wait any longer that this was my third attempt to get a copy. I have had every excuse under the book given to me from I have to see the doctor before they will give me a copy, the girl is done to lunch and their machine is broken. At this point my insurance can deal with them. But they need to know that word of mouth and social media could real hurt their business.
