I had the anterior (frontal) approach done which went great, as opposed to another surgeon somewhere else that did my right hip replacement posteriorly (which was a very long difficult recovery).

I like that they take a conservative approach (he didn't jump to "you need surgery"). He also was willing to sit and answer all my questions. I didn't feel rushed. The front office staff and Xray technician were both nice and my appointment schedule was kept within a reasonable amount of time. Definitely found my "knee" guy. Just FYI - this place specializes in knees and hips, so if you need other orthopedic assistance, you'll have to look elsewhere.

Went for an appointment to Florida Musculoskeletal Institution ( FMI) I am handicapped,…read more crippled and have to use a walker. I first encountered the sidewalk lined with rocking chairs, similar to what Cracker Barrel restaurant do. It was very difficult to go down the sidewalk using a walker with rocking chairs taking up more than half of the sidewalk space. Next, I encountered the entrance door which unlike most doctors offices in this area do not have the automatic door opening control. For those that with difficult walking and need walking aids, this can be a problem. It is an older building and the doorway is narrow and it was difficult getting the walker through the door. Not long after I got in, I saw a man on crutches having the similar problem. This business shares a lobby with a chiropractor office. The lobby was full of chairs and benches designed for people who do not have to maneuver a walker. This business is NOT handicapped friendly. Members of the staff and nursing staff I encountered were cold and robotic. I did not see anyone smile or say hello. After waiting 20 minutes to see the doctor, I saw him less than five and his conclusion for my issue was , quoto, You need learn to live with the pain and see a pain management specialist, This was a first for me and never had a doctor told me to live with the pain I will not go back to this business or doctor and highly recommend no one else does either, especially if you're handicapped.

I visited Dr. Huntt because I hurt my right shoulder practicing overhead squats with a barbell at…read morethe gym. As soon as I finished, the pain began. This happened once before, but the pain was much less severe. After my visit, I found out that the treatment I was given was not the best. First, the nurse took an X-Ray. I was advised that due to the way my pain began, there was little likelihood that the X-Ray would show the cause of my pain, and it exposed me to unnecessary radiation. Next, after a brief exam, Dr. Huntt said, "I will get you a cortisone shot, that's what you're here for." I told him that was not the case. I just wanted to find out the cause of my shoulder pain. I was worried it could be a problem with my rotator cuff. I had taken no medication for it, as it only hurt when I raised my arm a certain way. I asked him if a cortisone shot was the prescribed treatment for my condition, and he said yes. So, I let him administer the shot. I later found out, that it was overkill, and that a trial of less potent medicine, such as an over the counter drug Aleve, may have been a better way to go. I did not realize how strong the cortisone shot was, nor did I know that it was harmful to me due to my medical history (which he had) of hypothyroidism (for which I am on medication). You may reference this article (one of many I found): http://www.naturalendocrinesolutions.com/archives/the-dangers-of-steroid-medications-how-they-affect-thyroid-health/. Here is a quote from the article: "The way that corticosteroids can cause the development of hypothyroidism, or worsen it in individuals who already have this condition, is by reducing or stopping the secretion of TSH. This in turn will result in a reduction of thyroid hormone in the body." Why was Dr. Huntt unaware of this??? Did he read my medical history??? Enough said..... I wish I had been more informed. I had no idea that a cortisone injection would be recommended by the doctor, so I never looked into it in advance. Too late now for me.
