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.

As a long-standing patient at KOC, I have had the privilege of seeing Dr. Ivy, an exceptional hand…read moresurgeon. Regrettably, he retired, and I was referred to a different provider who did not meet my expectations. Several months ago, I scheduled an appointment with the new provider. Everything was proceeding smoothly until I checked in a day before my appointment. To my dismay, I discovered that KOC had switched me back to the provider I had previously expressed dissatisfaction with. Upon contacting KOC, I inquired about the reason for this change. They informed me that I lacked the authority to select my preferred provider. This revelation has shed light on the circumstances leading to Dr. Ivy's retirement. I speculate that it may be attributed to the current operational practices of KOC, which differ significantly from their past methods. KOC's approach to patient care appears to be more dictatorial rather than empowering. By dictating which providers patients can see, KOC may inadvertently impact their health outcomes. Furthermore, the lack of respect shown towards patients' concerns is concerning. I guess I will be flying out of state again to see my doctors. Apparently, they have zero confidence in their patients abilities to make decisions about their own care.

Joint replacement and fusion offered uncertain success, while gel and steroid injections provided temporary relief. My primary care physician recommended Dr. Carlson for non-surgical treatment for osteoarthritis and joint pain. He praised Dr. Carlson's advancements in PRP, a treatment made from concentrated platelets derived from the patient's own blood. Skeptical but desperate for relief, I scheduled a consultation and felt hopeful for the first time. Dr. Carlson reviewed my scans and diagnosed my condition using ultrasound, and had confidence he could provide relief. He created a detailed treatment plan and explained everything to me. After three months and three rounds of injections, I've been relatively pain-free and now walk five miles every morning. If you're experiencing joint pain, mobility issues, arthritis, or any other injury, I highly recommend contacting Dr. Carlson. PRP is typically less costly, quicker recovery, and for me, offered a better outlook than surgery. I was pleased with everything from our initial meeting to the final treatment. Working with Dr. Carlson was extraordinary. He dedicated time to explain his treatment procedure, ensuring my comprehension and comfort throughout the process. The entire office staff exceeded expectations, particularly in the healthcare industry.

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.

Unfortunately, my more recent experiences have been extremely disappointing. Last year, while being treated for two broken pinkies, the X-ray manipulation was very painful and, in my opinion, premature. I now have permanently bent pinkies and deeply regret not declining those X-rays. Four weeks ago, I had foot surgery here. The surgery center's billing department was frustrating to work with and provided inconsistent information about what could and couldn't be billed together. On the day of surgery, patients were asked to arrive very early only to wait over an hour. After providing a urine sample, I was left standing in the hallway while staff walked past without assistance until I sought help myself. Most concerning is the lack of post-operative support. This past week I've experienced severe pain around the surgical screws and have been unable to reach a live person despite multiple messages. After paying over $10,000 for this procedure, the fact that I may need to go to the ER because I can't get a callback is unacceptable. Based on my recent experiences, I cannot recommend this practice.
