Excellent Hernia Repair-- I'm Ready to Play Again Like Odell Beckham Jr !…read more In getting a flat repaired the tire had to be replaced and so I didn't wait but just brought it home from NTB to remount the wheel myself. The wheel didn't want to sit still as I screwed on the lug nuts and so I needed to hold it there. This took 2-3 minutes. I was squatting, slightly hunched over, and putting high pressure on my right groin area. I finally completed the job, hand-tightening all the lug nuts and lowered the car to drive off to work. The next day I experienced a groin pain while running outdoors. This recurred throughout the rest of the week. It always happened after significant leg exercise and too after long walking. While I initially thought it might be a groin strain, the persistence led me to believe it was an inguinal hernia. I performed the "cough test", visited Dr. Ash, and found out I was right. We elected to do the repair asap because my exercise is important to me. Note that if you wait too long the intestinal incarceration can worsen to the point of strangulation, and then you have an emergency visit to the hospital with a huge bill. By using a local outpatient surgery center (Stonegate on William Cannon), the surgery happened affordably and quickly. Now, a year later I'm in super shape from regular exercise. Mind you, I have modified that : I sold my racing bike and purchased an Elliptigo stand-up bicycle to avoid putting "Lance Armstrong-like crunch pressure" on the hernia site (Dr. Ash installed a plug under the mesh, so the former you can feel if you or some object pushes hard on your groin). The scar is quite feint, but I don't mind a "war wound". In recuperating from surgery I used no drugs because I immediately began walking around carefully with a cain. After about 8 weeks I was cain-free and fast walking with being able to half-speed run at 10 weeks. At 12 weeks I was back up to full speed, including rowing (a non-crunch exercise). Dr. Ash remarked that she had to install a plug that was significantly wider than she expected, so she believes my wheel replacement did *not* cause the hernia : I worked out in a gym throughout the 90's and probably started the tear there. Since then it only became worse and the wheel replacement took advantage of it to push the intestine up and through. Dr. Ash not only healed me, but enlightened me so I will henceforth live very differently so no hernia will happen elsewhere. My advice to anyone changing car wheels is always sit on a stool. And buy an Elliptigo.

Dr. Ash is amazing. Highly recommend. She repaired my mom's and husband's hernias. I had my…read moregallbladder removed last September and would not go to anyone else.

Dr. Grayson came in and went over my diagnoses and the treatment he recommended at this time. He's very personable and acts like he really cares, like everyone else at this practice. I highly recommend them.

Our daughter tore her ACL doing competitive cheer and we came to Dr. Moore "by chance", but am so glad we found him! He (and his brother and father) specialize in sports medicine, so he understood the importance of getting our daughter diagnosed and treated as quickly as possible. He went above and beyond in every area, and always treated us with the utmost courtesy and respect, never ever feeling like a number, or a nuisance. I hesitate to say the ways in which he went above and beyond for fear of setting the same expectation for everyone who comes in. But it was VERY appreciated, and I know he will deal with each patient's particular situation with individualized attention and care. Our daughter is one-year post-op now, which is what prompted me to write this. I can truly say that Dr. Moore advised us with the best method and procedure for her ACL repair, given her age and particular situation. The surgery itself was highly successful, and a year out, she is enjoying life as an active teenager again. (Note: it was 10 months to full recovery, I just happen to be writing this 1-year out). I can't recommend Dr. Grayson Moore, and his entire family and staff, enough!

She's nice and has great reviews for…read more*certain procedures* but she totally botched my lip lift and did nothing but take my money for my upper eye bleph. Not only was her work way too conservative (as in you can't tell a difference), I now have a scar under my nose. That scar is the only noticeable difference in my face after spending thousands and dealing with the pain of the procedure and recovery process. I wish I had never gone to her. Another facial plastic surgeon reviewed her work and told me because of my eye structure I was never a good candidate for an upper bleph and Dr. Saxon should've told me that instead of taking my money and cutting me open for no reason. I'll post before and after pics and you can see (note that in the before for my eyes I had eyeliner on but no liner in the after, which may make it look like there's a minimal difference like more lid space, but there's actually not. They also zoomed in more so it looks like the photos are a little different, but they're not, there's definitely not many thousands of dollars worth of difference). No exaggeration, this will probably go down as one of the top regrets of my life (very expensive and literally the only difference is a scar on my face now) so I just feel obligated to warn others like I wish I had been warned. She's really nice, her staff is so kind, but they should've just kept my money and not given me a scar on my face (Also, again the staff was sweet as could be to me, but I know for a fact at least one of these 5 star reviews (I'm not gonna name names) is an employee who yes is also a patient but should note in her review that she works for her, so it's a bit biased)

I honestly couldn't be happier with my experience here. I came in needing disc replacement surgery…read morein my neck, and from the start the team made me feel taken care of. What really stood out to me is how quickly they got me scheduled, less than a week from my first call to surgery. That kind of responsiveness meant everything when I was in pain. The surgery itself went smoothly, and my surgeon explained everything in a way that gave me total confidence. The nurses and staff were so kind and attentive, making me feel comfortable during what could have been a really stressful time. Recovery has been going better than I could have imagined, and I can already feel such a difference. I'm grateful not just for the skill of the medical team, but also for how much they genuinely seemed to care about me as a person. If anyone out there is considering neck surgery or struggling with disc issues, I can say from personal experience , you'll be in excellent hands here.

His post-op instructions were clear and reasonable. 8 weeks post op 100% feeling and function returned to my hands after 2 years of numbness. He was not sure how much damage was permanent but was pretty confident I would regain some function. I highly recommend him if you want a clear, thorough, confident, expert surgeon. Apparently he has trained internationally. Two doctor friends of mine had worked with him and highly recommended him as a surgeon and vouched for his reputation. My Physical Therapist and her business partner had direct, personal experience with him and confidently recommended him as my surgeon.
