After my first ambulance ride to the Mission ER, I was told to consult with an orthopedic surgeon…read moreregarding my broken ankle. It was the day after Christmas and everyone's schedule seem to be pretty full. There were plenty of wheelchairs available out front of this "walk-in" orthopedic care center. I was wheeled into a fairly busy waiting room and was greeted with a pleasant smile. Cherie brought me back 45 minutes later, which I didn't feel was too long due to the number of people already waiting before me. The attending physician Ryan was able to consult my x-rays from Mission and explained to me where the fracture occurred, and how long I would need to remain in the hard boot. I scheduled my follow up appointment two weeks later with him. Considering the circumstances and the holidays, I felt this walk-in clinic did its job very well.

(This update is a duplicate, don't know why it was in my drafts.)…read more This is a update after having 2 surgeries from Dr. Maxwell. He is a excellent down to earth Dr. Not only is he a Great Dr. But he comes off as being a wonderful Man. He was very happy to hear how I was doing. I couldn't be luckier to have had him as my surgeon. Very good at what he does. Since my 2nd one I've had this year the last one was July 12th so he needed to do new x-rays and told me the screws he put in are doing great. I didn't know that the screws they use have holes in them to allow the bone to grow into the screw over time. The staff is always very friendly as well. I won't have to go back now for another 4 months to be checked again. If your in the Asheville area make sure you see him!!

New patient, recommended by Foot RX as they don't take insurance (Foot RX is a very nice shoe…read morecompany specializing in running shoes). Met Wes Huskey (Prosthetist & Orthotist). I was recovering from a soft tissue foot injury, am a diabetic type 1, so pay attention to my feet. I had called my medicare insurance company and was assured this company is an approved supplier. My first visit was great, with no waiting, they answered all questions, explained that my insurance worked by calendar year, allowing one free shoe, plus two inserts per year. As this was early Aug. they suggested to get all now, allowing for support for the injured area, then return in January to be fitted for new shoe and inserts that would change as my foot healed. They answered all questions, and even had choices regarding new designs including slip on sport shoes. So I get to keep my beloved Brooks as well. Will update when I return for the insert and shoe fitting.

Everyone here was very nice. However, the therapist did not fully assess my current limitations…read morepost surgery and gave me exercises that were way too ambitious for where I was at 4 weeks post op. After a brief assessment, we went right into exercises, not pain management or manual therapy. I left the session with a significant amount of inflammation and it created complications that set me back in my recovery. I called afterwards to give a heads up to the office manager and she fully backed her therapist, instead blaming my surgeon for not giving more specifics instructions. In any case, I don't think full body push ups with a resistance band across the upper back on top of a wobbly massage table 3 feet off the ground is an ideal exercise to start off with just one month after spinal surgery. I would caution anyone considering going here to make sure there is a clear understanding of your limitations and realistic plan for rehabilitation that builds gradually over time. Anything else is just dangerous and irresponsible.

I had suffered for many years with bad pain in my hips and legs. Everyone, including other doctors,…read moreassumed it was my hips. But, yet I kept being told that my hips weren't bad enough for surgery. I switched to S.E. Sports Medicine and was immediately diagnosed with Trendelenburg Gait, meaning my glueteus medius and gluteus minimus tendons were ripped and torn from the bone. After an MRI which clearly verified my condition, Dr. Matthew Wham said that he could repair this. Because of my age, he couldn't be sure of the damage and atrophy until he got into the surgery, but he was hopeful. The surgery went VERY well! The 8 inch incision with 20 or more staples hardly hurt at all, and I am a real pain wuss. In 3 days I was up and using a walker, and I am in a brace from my hip to my knee for 2months, but I can tell that my previous constant pain down my right hip and leg is gone. Dr. Wham is amazing, and I would advise you to goggle him for his specialties and se if he can change your life, too!
