Don't ask, this is the center for pain extreme pain. You may get lucky, and some recipient pts. do ok, but all whom have joint replacement treatment will experience some of the worse pain they've ever had. The lucky ones will go into their post op, at home, and be prepared with their own meds and trash the prescriptions given to you. Prepare your own med locker if you want to avoid contemplating suicide to end enormous pain. Why real narcotics are withheld or stolen is queer. You need at least morphine, demerol, fentanyl, stool softener/laxative, baby aspirin, benadryl. Forget the oxycodone. Useless for real pain. If you can not get a real narcotic before surgery, do not have it done. Do not be afraid to get a real nurse practitioner to prescribe the right narcotics for you. Bribery if needed. read more

I had reverse shoulder replacement, I had bone spurs in my shoulder socket that were VERY painful. What a relief to be pain free. I did out-patient with no over night in the hospital. I had the surgery in Bullhead City. I was home in six hours and I live in Kingman. Dr. Lock is an amazing surgeon! I did NOT have to have physical therapy and was able to return back to work in 90 days without a single problem. read more

I had a horrible time in Lake Havasu finding a competent orthopedic doctor for my rotator cuff injury. After exhausting all leads in Havasu, I decided to expand my search to Kingman and Bullhead. I found Dr. Lock's office and called them. I described my terrible experiences in Havasu with 2 separate facilities in Havasu and Dr. Lock's staff scheduled me for an appointment the very next day. I went yesterday and the staff and Dr. Lock were awesome. That visit may have actually been the most pleasant doctor's office visit I have ever had. The staff were all exceptionally friendly, professional, and efficient. They had me in getting my x-rays even before finishing the new patient documents. When Dr. Lock came into the patient room, he had already reviewed the x-rays, quickly determined the issue and prescribed the solution I was hoping for; which was a Cortizone shot. I only had to wait about 2 minutes until he came back in with the injection. Applied it completely pain free and after 1 day, my shoulder already feels 90% better. I can't recommend Dr. Lock enough. 10 out of 5 stars!!! read more

Dr. Lock replaced my knee in 2018. He has been nothing but nice and professional. The first time he saw me he said I would have to lose before he did the knee surgery. But he offered shots in the knee to make it more comfortable, they did but would wear off and I had to get more. I lost over 100 pounds and the next time I saw him he said he would do the surgery. I had no problems with replacement, I did follow all his orders. And the surgery was less painful than my original knee. I will be ever grateful for his expertise and guidance. We moved to Columbus, Ohio, last year been through two winters and my knee is great. I call him the magic man. read more

Do not go to this doctor. Dr. Lock is a Arrogant Prick with a God Complex. I went to see him for my knee, he said I needed a Unloader Brace. So he contacted the brace people, they came back and told Dr. Lock the insurance company didn't like the wording of his order, to reword it , and told him how they wanted it, but he refused to . He told me to just go to Big 5 and get a knee brace. I think doctor is a fraud and a hack. His ego is so large , he puts it ahead of his patience needs. read more
