    I had a surgery in October of 2022 at Tennessee Orthopedic Clinic (TOC). Five months post surgery…read moremy figure started to become disfigured, and today I can't even put my right hand into my pocket because the finger is bent/ disfigured. They have refused to see me, answer my emails, answer questions on my patient portal, or return calls. TOC's reason for not wanting to help? I owe them money. My insurance company paid $16,449.53, I paid $1,219.13 (10/20/22) before the surgery took place, and have made multiple smaller payments on the account since. I even went in and spoke to someone, offered to pay cash to have my finger looked at, and they declined to see me. Feel free to look at my other reviews. I HATE leaving a bad review for anyone. I have a right hand that's barely functional without an enormous amount of pain, and negative reports on my credit, all for a surgery that was suppose to fix my broken finger, not make it worse. The images of the bent finger are from 3.25.2024, and I cannot straighten it. Patient Portal picture is multiple emails sent with NO response. Pictures with stitches were post op.

    Saw PA about hip pain. Took X-ray. Never touched me and said I needed hip replaced. Scheduled…read moreand I sought second opinion. Went to another ortho and not the hip. Back injury radiating down the leg. Hip perfect. Doing PT and back injection. No surgery. Glad I got second opinion. Whoever reads might as well.

    Knoxville Orthopaedic Clinic has a super team of doctors, nurses and administrations working…read moreovertime to provide my son with a healthy recovery from his injuries. The moment I called to setting up his doctor's appointment, to checking him in to see his orthopaedic was very professional. While we were waiting to be seen we really enjoyed to comfortable chairs, vending machines and the free wifi in the waiting area. The entire staff working at the Knoxville Orthopaedic Clinic was very kind to my 12-year-old son Rain. And doctor Curtis Gaylord MD is truly the best pediatric orthopaedic surgeon specialist on this planet. Doctor Gaylord is one of my son's favorite super hero, who can fix, mend, and repair any injuries or broken bones.

    While training my newly rescued Boxer, I had an incident with him on the leash and was thrown to…read morethe pavement. I went to KOC walk in clinic by UT Medical Center. It was like a barn with standing room only. Mass chaos! The kiosk is right at the entry doors and many patients lack the skills necessary to check in. I was finally seen after more than an hour wait. I had several injuries but they only focused on my wrist??? I landed on my right arm/shoulder/hip/knee/ribs and only the wrist was of interest?? Had an X-ray but too swollen, got an arm brace and a follow up for today. KOC said they "don't do ribs", I believe my elbow is fractured along with my rib(s). I struggle to breathe or get comfortable, and have a weird bump past my elbow that is suspect of bone fragment. Today I go for my follow up. Appt. was at 9:10. I checked in at 9:03 because I completed all my paperwork and paid my co-pay online. I received the "you are checked in for your appt" notice and took a seat. At 10:10, after the lobby cleared and all new patients arrived, I asked when I could expect to be seen. I was told I was "next". At 10:40, when the lobby had almost cleared again, I went back to the desk and said I've been here an 1 1/12 and I am leaving. The worker, not apologetic for my ridiculous wait time; said "I'll let them know" in a very musical tone. LAST TIME AT KOC! I am a retired healthcare admin. This is absolutely the worst lack of respect for patients I've seen in some time. All I expected was for one, of the numerous, employees to say "I apologize for your wait" or something like that, I would have felt a bit more appreciated as a patient. But KOC's model in herding people by the droves and maximizing profits feels greasy and greedy. I agree physicians should have investment in their practice. But this seems to be an unsustainable model. No apologies, no care, so beware! Maybe they are experts, but they severely lack appreciation for their primary source of revenue, patients!! There are also orthopedic experts NOT affiliated with this practice that would truly appreciate you as a patient! Bonus, they can also provide top notch care.
