The Triangle Orthopedic is as good as it gets…read more I have been going about 6-8 years and they have always been there to help me in an unexpected situation with kind and beautiful service and durning scheduled appointments I feel loved and cared for. With Dr. Belhorn, in Durham and Chapel Hill and she returned my texted message immediately, when I was to sick to get in the car and drive. Abe McCoy with excellent care for a broken ankle and bone spur on the other foot...( all in last 6 months. ) He is in Durham/Chapel Hill with Urgent care. They have all the x-Ray machines, etc, right on premise, so no going to another for X-Rays. Patricia T.

ONE STAR -- WOULD GIVE ZERO IF I COULD Avoid EMERGORTHO at…read moreall costs -- especially if you're truly in pain or need compassion. I was referred to EmergoOrtho by a fill-in PCP due to a herniated disc compressing nerve roots. I already had an MRI before the appointment but was never told I needed to bring the images. When I arrived, they said they could access them. I paid a $50 copay, only to be told I needed another X-ray. The doctor came in for barely two minutes, said a steroid shot would be faster than a pack, then immediately left. I was told it needed to be scheduled and would take about a week. Meanwhile, I was told to just take Tramadol and do PT. No one followed up. I had to call them. Eventually, they set the appointment for August 5 -- nearly two weeks after my first visit. I took time off work, and had my wife do the same to drive me. But on August 4 at 3:30 PM, I got a call from Ruby saying they needed the MRI images. I asked why, since they claimed to have them last time and even did a new X-ray. She said she'd check. 20 minutes later, she called back and said they couldn't get the images from radiology and would have to cancel my appointment. Cancel -- after all that pain, waiting, time off, and insurance approval. I asked why the appointment was canceled when it was scheduled for the next day and I had done everything on my end. She was completely indifferent. I personally called the radiology provider and got through right away. They sent the images and I also drove to pick up a CD copy just in case. I called EmergoOrtho back immediately asking not to cancel my appointment. I was told Ruby was the only one who could help me. The woman said she'd have Ruby call me back that day. It's now 8:30 PM and still no call. Let me be clear -- I am a disabled veteran, in constant pain, with numb, burning fingers, unable to sleep or function properly. I served this country, and this is the level of care and compassion I get? You all should be ashamed. You clearly do not care about patients -- only copays and procedures. You dragged me through weeks of appointments, calls, and chaos, only to leave me in pain and cancel without cause. This will be the last orthopedic group I ever deal with. I wouldn't send my worst enemy here. You failed me. You failed your duty. Close the doors.

What a HORRIBLE experience for my family at Duke Orthopedic Clinic in Durham!! My niece dislocated…read moreand fractured her elbow, and a STAT referral was sent to Duke Ortho for her to be seen by a Pediatric Orthopedist due to the possibility of needing surgery (a copy was given to my sister). After waiting 3 days to hear back, someone finally contacted my sister to let her know it would be December 1st before my niece could be seen!! My sister was called back today and informed that they could see her at 1:45. After pulling my niece out of school, and driving over an hour to get to the clinic in Durham, the lady who scheduled the appointment told my sister that they had scheduled it with the wrong doctor, that the Pediatric Orthopedist wasn't in today and that they couldn't see her :(!! Not only was the lady who scheduled the appointment wrong rude to them...So was her immediate supervisor!! They then sent my sister on a wild goose chase to find another orthopedic clinic that could see her today. Thankfully Triangle Orthopedic Specialists were able to see her this afternoon...So a HUGE THANK YOU to them for working her in. Duke Healthcare should be ASHAMED...The way this has all been handled on their end has been totally UNACCEPTABLE...And you have definitely lost our business!!

I went in in pain and after a number of months I had to use a rollator. Since he THOUGHT?? I wasn't a surgery candidate he was not interested. Refused referrals to another doc that might figure out the issue just a "byeeeeee". Update: it was a necessary hip replacement as I originally thought. I sure hope this dude doesn't have a mother a wife or a child. He'd kill them. Loser loser
