I am in constant significant back pain with a herniated disc, and I was referred to Dr. Vermuri to get an epidural injection ASAP. Meeting with Dr. Vermuri went fine and he said to schedule an epidural with his staff. I was told by his staff when checking out that I would hear back from the scheduling person within one to two days. After three days I called to find out when my epidural was scheduled for since I had not heard anything. I was told by someone named Amy that it is typically a week or more before an appointment can even be scheduled, and that they were currently running three weeks out AFTER you were scheduled. When I asked why in the world it takes a week to even get a procedure scheduled, I was told "the only person that schedules epidurals is Heidi, and she can take a week or more to schedule a procedure since she multitasks like the rest of us and has many other duties beside scheduling." So, I am in constant stabbing pain and at the mercy of a single multitasking "when she can get around to it" scheduler to even get on the books. That is one star. Appalling.

Assigned to Dr. Price, his nurse had an unfriendly personality even though I had preregistered online with all the info she was upset I didn't have my medicines list to verify what was in my registration. I said aw man, I forgot to grab the list, but I filled it out online. Well you don't have to get upset with me she said with a firm hostility, I'm not upset at all. Just concerned I won't remember my meds is all. They were in my file the whole time? Then Dr. Price bolted into the room briefly asked what was going on, cut me off while I was talking, told me he didn't see anything on the x-ray to match with the pain I was having. Most doctor's smoothly slowly exam range of motion during the leg exam, NO! He rapidly shoved my legs back as if to play with a young child. Extremely painful, but he had already made his mind up that I wasn't having any issue. I was wearing a skirt he didn't bother covering me up as he flailed my legs around in the air even thought I had asked for covering! I asked did he view the MRI imaging that my other specialist saw issues? Extremely arrogant, dismissive, and disrespectful. Really spoke down to me as if I were crazy and not in extreme pain. As he roughly shoved around on my back during his brief exam I explained I was having a spinal fusion surgery and disc removed in my lower neck, he scoffed as if I didn't need that either. Tried quickly telling him I had severe pain in lower back and possible fusion there as well, but he cut me off again so I wasn't allowed to explain that either. THREE TIMES he shoved where my other damaged disc was that's pinching on the nerves!!! I was gasping for air and instantly sobbing as he told me that's where my hip pain was coming from. AGAIN my spine specialist saw in the MRI and showed me where my hip bone was pushed over rubbing bone on bone in the socket. He left the room, I hobbled over to be sick from the pain HE INDUCED then took my next muscle relaxer. He comes in to see me picking up my leg then dropping it when I walk he cockily asked WHY ARE YOU WALKING LIKE THAT? You need to bend your knee, no wonder you are in pain, AS IF I'm causing this debilitating pain! Like it's my fault? Through my tears I try to explain it hurt moving the joint around, this has been the only way I have been able to survive throughout the day with the pain. He finally admits to seeing what the other two doctor's saw, didn't give me a treatment plan, my options, nothing! Offered a shot in my hip, I'm still trying to collect myself and in shock that a supposed top notch doctor couldn't be so condescending and pompous to his patients, but I now see he has 12 other poor online reviews over the years stating the same exact situation and character. Well done you want the treatment or not?! I really wanted to bolt out of there but my children need me back to some kind of working order and my other surgeries are approaching. He finally gives me a gown but hikes my skirt all the way up and my panties down vs just pulling both down a little bit from the top as I requested. He doesn't sterilize the area, slowly put the needle in but it was very painful. His nurse suited him as she was just as rude and abrupt as he was looking at me as if I were petty, I hear her from the hallway, all needles are uncomfortable. Didn't bother telling me what to expect from the injection, treatment plan ...nothing! DON'T PAY "THE PRICE" go anywhere else but here!

I could have sung the praises of Dr Brown through the years but I wanted to wait until I actually experienced his expertise in Total Knee Replacement surgery. I have needed knee replacement surgery for years but for a variety of reasons the timing was never right. Thirty years ago when I lived in California the problem the doctor identified was I was just TOO young to be a candidate for surgery. Twenty-five years ago after moving to the Louisville KY area I got started at a different orthopedic doctor's office and was told that other than knee injections there was no other option due to metal allergies that included titanium , cobalt and nickel. Injections in my knees were useless as the first day it increased the pain, the second and third day after were great, and then it was back to my original condition. Ten years ago a Physical Therapist I was being treated by mentioned Dr Brown as he had performed knee replacement surgery on the Therapist's mother. My first appointment with Dr Brown I was sold that I finally had found the correct professional. Upon arriving for my appointment a full set of x-rays on both knees were taken. Dr Brown needed no time in evaluating the x-rays and exclaimed I needed knee surgery for years. Yep, I knew that but thought I was going to lower the boom when I told him of my metal allergies. No, he had the answer. He exited the exam room and re-entered with an actual knee replacement kit (not even a sample but the actual surgical kit). Dr Brown explained that the joint would be made of Zirconium and the replacement bone could be made of polypropylene (layman's term = plastic). Great news! To proceed Dr Brown wanted additional allergy testing that was different than the standard patch testing. This allergy testing used blood to do a blood antigen test on everything that would be used during surgery such as specific cement, etc. While waiting for the results I promised Dr Brown I would work on losing some weight as it would be helpful in the overall surgery process. I also agreed to work on warm water physical therapy to be in the best condition possible for surgery and recovery. Based on my knee conditions Dr Brown wanted to replace the right knee first. Fast forward several years and my left knee was in HORRIBLE condition and I couldn't stand on the left knee/leg at all. Unfortunately that emergency appointment was with Dr Brown's APRN Craig. Oops, Craig found an additional problem and called Dr Brown in for a consult. No surgery could not happen. Dr Brown explained that with a pulse of 32 he couldn't do surgery. He instructed me to work with my Cardiologist to get a pace maker and then he would consider Knee Replacement Surgery. This review will not go into all the trials and tribulations of getting a pacemaker other than to say it took YEARS! In the meantime I made another appointment with Dr Brown because I thought I was having right hip problems. Dr Brown was so on top of things he immediately could say the problem is not your hip but appears to be a back problem. He ordered an MRI that confirmed exactly what he thought. From that information he said DO NOT CONSIDER BACK SURGERY but referred me to pain management. Finally back to June 2025. I had left Total Knee Replacement by Dr Brown. He requires all patients take a webinar class prior to surgery so you know exactly what to expect. In my final appointment with him prior to surgery he warned me I was in End Stage Osteoarthritis and that the surgery was not going to be a breeze. Together understanding the condition, the allergies, etc. he would do his best to avoid problems. I had total faith in him and experienced fantastic surgery and outcome. If you need an excellent orthopedic doctor for knee replacement or hip replacement Dr Brown is my recommendation!

I wanted Dr Carter to just remove the cam fai part and stay out of the hip but he said he needed to get into the joint. I asked him if there was a chance this could make my hip worse and he said no that the surgery should not make my hip worse. On the day of the surgery I told Dr Carter that my hip had been feeling well. After the surgery he told my girlfriend that I would need a hip replacement. Dr Carter did not see me after the surgery and I was not able to see him until about 3 months after the surgery. There was a problem with my appointment after the surgery. When I went to the office there was no one there who could take my stitches out so I removed the stitches myself. Dr Carter never told me that there was a chance the surgery could make my hip worse. He did say that results were not as good at my age but that's it. Also Dr Carter did not require me to get an arthogram of my hip. I only got a regular MRI. I have had about 4 surgeries on my other hip and all the surgeons saw me after surgery and then about 3 days later. And all previous surgeries required a hip arthogram. Also the other surgeries were all good results for my hip. I have more pain and disability with my hip now than before the surgery. This was my first surgery on this other hip. I made a very bad decision to get surgery from Dr Carter and wish I had not. Now I will need a hip replacement because of this surgery. I had no idea this was possible and am quite unhappy about it. I do not recommend Dr Carter.

He diagnosed the problem, told me that due to the severity the only option was surgery, and finished with the successful pain relieving surgery. Fast forward, I'm not sure how many years since that surgery and no pain but several months ago I wondered if it was coming back. In this modern era I researched on the internet and found carpal tunnel syndrome can reoccur. I convinced myself this was the problem and finally got around to scheduling an appointment with Dr. Blackburn. Today I went for that appointment and was once again impressed with Dr. Blackburn's professionalism, his examination , the x-rays to confirm his diagnosis, and the treatment. Great news it was not carpal tunnel, did not need surgery, and was treated with the fitting of a hard wrist brace. I'll go for a recheck in 6 weeks but I can tell there was Instant relief from the pain the minute the wrist brace was fitted. Thanks again Dr. Blackburn! You are Woohoo, as good as it gets.

For the waiting area: just remove the excess chairs and space out the rest of them; there's no need to keep all the chairs set up - this has been going on for a while - and stackable chairs can just be kept in a corner. I hate to say it, but the COVID restrictions make things better for the patients. No waiting for long periods of time because there were too many people scheduled and the doctor is behind. No crowded waiting rooms. You get in, get your tests/exams and get out. I could get used to this.
