Dr. Hey and his staff are absolutely wonderful! My daughter had been in a brace for scoliosis (42…read moredegree curve) for a year, but it didn't help. We came to Dr. Hey for a second opinion when her doctor recommended a wait and see approach. In our experience, back pain becomes worse with age, not better. My daughter is in color guard and plays violin. She had significant back pain and took pain medication daily. Dr. Hey discussed her options with us and encouraged my daughter to think about what would be best for her health. She opted for surgery. She missed about 2 weeks of school and rested during spring break. She was able to return to color guard for band camp in July and has not had to take any more pain medication for her back since her surgery. We are so thankful for Dr. Hey's expertise and his caring heart. He and his staff were an answer to prayers. My daughter is so thankful that she had her surgery and is very thankful for Dr. Hey.

Bad apples in every bag, Dr. Reeg is the bad apple of Duke Orthopedic. I did not experience a…read moreproper or professional meeting but rather, I met a petulant child having a temper tantrum. He had not one good thing to say and his only interest was in beating down my previous back surgeon and then verbally beating me down if I tried to disagree. The two things that are keeping me angry about this experience are the facts that I had to pay my abuser for abusing me and that he had no reservations about negatively beating down my previous surgeon, someone he knows and works with as colleague. The fact he felt no qualms about being so aggressive to me while I was awake makes me shutter to think of how he could be if I were asleep. I'm over the third trauma of being told there is no hope for my back because my previous surgeon totally destroyed it and my bones being too frail to handle any screws because, my bone density test and my 'heaven sent' surgeon, both proved him 100% wrong. I saw your real face Dr. Reeg and I know your a snake in the grass. Just know, I am not your silent victim who will fear shame of judgement for speaking about how you abused me. I know I am granting you the courtesy of kindness that you never extended me. I have forgiven you to my Saviour for judgement and justice. My vengeance is my Lord because he will serve it most fairly. However, I hope the colleague you worked so hard to degrade can forgive the pain my truth will bring him but, I suspect he and many others have already seen your real face too. I will close by saying that should any proper Duke affiliate want to reach out and inquire, I will gladly speak with them. In the meantime, I am now entering cardio care because the stress and distress from you has possibly given me a heart attack. Sleep well with yourself.

After researching my injury, I read it was a rare break because it started at my prosthetic knee and formed about a 9 inch fracture. I am thankful to be at WakeMed. I had very little post operative pain and was accepted into WakeMed Rehabiltation Hospital. I am sure Dr. Whitlock played a part In this. I could not have had a better experience.

Lexi at the front desk is unnecessarily rude, cold, and unhelpful. I asked about scheduling…read moreadditional OT appointments 2 weeks out so that there would be no break in my biweekly appointments for tennis elbow given that's what the dr ordered for 6 weeks, and she told me no need to schedule at that time as I had 2 appts the next week. Well, the following week when it came time to schedule for the following week, nothing was available. Given it's her JOB to schedule, so she intimately knows that appts book quickly so you need to book several weeks out, it's inexcusable she brushed me off this way. Zero compassion from her. She should NOT be in a customer service role. Put her in back office away from patient interactions.

TERRIBLE PAIN RUNYON Tried one procedure that didn't work said there was nothing else he could do for me gave me opiates Jude carr PA. Saw him briefly after Dr Runyon left more opiates and ordered a MRI up until then they didn't know what was wrong with me! I went to Drl Liu. I had researched online and found lots of other procedures I asked her if I could get an epidural and got one right away only got real results from her Take away: Don't wait in pain so long change doctors I had my spinal fusion procedure in August and found Dr Liu in January I had almost given up I asked her to do a procedure that I had found online an epidural and she did it right away and I'm waiting for it to kick in after months of extreme pain. I didn't have any pain before the surgery surgeon was doctor Crutcher If you're not getting results search online that's how I found the epidural Jude Carr just kind of brushed it off. Dr Liu was outstanding she gave me my epidural immediately Be your own advocate!

He encouraged me to call him at any time if I had questions. He actually returned a call while on a break during a lecture he was giving in San Diego!!!!!!! I felt horrible bcs I had a stupid little question but he reassured me it was fine. I love this guy. Dr. Chris Brown - I and my mother concur with his out of state patients who were in the waiting room - he is a miracle worker. He literally changes your life from one of misery and depression to one that is mobile, active, joyous and forward thinking. If you ask 10 MD's who they would send their parent to for spinal issues, they would all say Chris Brown. Karen weaver

Needless to say, I hit the ground many times and while the rest of me is sore, I had no issues with my repaired shoulders.
