Back pedaling; could be this or could be that no clear solution. I had already tried everything that they recommend for pain with no relief. So here I am almost 3 years later with daily pain and a knee that is 100% worse than before the surgery. Wouldn't risk using these doctors in case something goes wrong.

On December 11, I went to Ortho SC with excruciating back pain and could barely walk. They took…read moreX-rays of my spine and told me everything looked fine. I was given a muscle relaxer and prednisone and told the MRI department would call me to schedule an MRI--$460 with insurance--and then I was sent home. That night, my pain became unbearable. I suffered severe muscle spasms, got no sleep, and was in so much pain that I cried repeatedly. When I called Ortho SC first thing the next morning to explain what was happening, I was told they could not help me and that I should go to the emergency room. When I asked about the MRI, I was brushed off and told someone would contact me. I had to push to be transferred to the MRI department myself. There, I was told the next available appointment was December 22--nearly two weeks later. I was informed that there were 66 patients ahead of me and that my pain did not warrant any urgency. Being told to live with this level of pain for weeks was not only unacceptable, it was inhumane. When a complaint management representative finally called me back, her response was simply, "If you're in that much pain, go to the ER." This was after Ortho SC had already taken my insurance, performed incomplete imaging, and sent me home with no answers and no plan. I have never felt so dismissed, abandoned, or powerless by a medical provider. Out of desperation, I found a spine specialist on my own and was seen the same day. They immediately took proper X-rays, including a front view that Ortho SC never bothered to do. The doctor showed me that my spine was shifting to the right and that I had two compressed discs at the bottom of my spine--conditions Ortho SC completely missed. I received injections that actually helped my pain and was given a clear, competent treatment plan. This experience highlights everything wrong with large, corporate-style healthcare practices. At Ortho SC, patients are treated as numbers, not human beings in pain. I will never return to Ortho SC, and I will actively warn others to avoid!

No driving, no social life unless someone took me out. I went to another ortho doctor for to a second surgery who told me "I waited too long. but, I'll do the best I can". The second surgery did not help my chronic pain and I currently walk with a cane. When I went to Dr. Bohan in August, he had the nerve to ask me if I wanted him to operate again. OH, I forgot to mention this occured in January 2023 and second surgery September 2023. I still have chronic pain and depression due to this situation. Do not see Dr. Bohan

The pain was SO BAD that I just went home after one day.

If a doctor can do the procedure correctly, that's good. But it doesn't end there. I have a VERY low tolerance for physical pain, so my experience was awful.

He really cares about his patients. The staff there follow his lead in kindness. The teamwork there is like a choreographed dance. I tripped at home and my knee and lower leg were injured. I was in the ER last night and they instructed me to follow up with an orthopedic physician. I am already an established patient with Dr. Bohan so I called to see him. They were able to see me quickly. The nurse took me for an X-ray and then to an examination room. I did not have to wait long. Dr Bohan listened carefully to me. I explained my fall in detail and exactly where I hurt on my knee. He carefully examined my knee and lower leg. We discussed various options for follow up care. Everything was explained to me in a way I could understand it. Dr Bohan's knowledge and experience is the best. Don't take my word for it. Ask for him when seeking a fabulous orthopedic knee doctor. Tell them Willie and Bev sent you. Willie Conway.
