River Region is one of those 2. From the initial appointment to every session over the last 2 months, the staff has been instrumental in increasing my strength and range of motion. They answer any questions I have with a smile and thorough response. They're courteous and all-around good people. I would recommend anyone that needs therapy to try RRPT.

I had a positive experience at First Choice, which has two wings: One a chiropractic clinic; the…read moreother a physical therapy practice. While I haven't had occasion to visit Dr. Clingan for chiropractics, I've only heard positive things about him. As for the physical therapy, I experienced good results in treating a pinched nerve in my neck. I found the (all lady) PT staff quite likeable. In particular, Lisa, the head PT lady, has a pleasant personality well suited to listening to patients describing their ailments and then troubleshooting them. She never made me feel like I was just another problem to solve so she could move on to the next task. Also, Amanda has a playful demeanor that made performing exercises more enjoyable. And Heather the receptionist was always bubbly, and I suspect it's her singing "Everything is Awesome" in The Lego Movie. I appreciate her efforts in scheduling my sessions to fit my schedule. Now it so happens that when it comes to bills, I'm presently self-pay (with a medical cost-sharing plan in lieu of traditional insurance). So I appreciated the staff being supportive in this area; for example, I felt that Lisa and Heather were trying to sell me no more PT service than necessary to solve my problem, as opposed to milking it like some would. The atmosphere in the gym-like PT wing was pleasant; with Christian pop/praise songs played in the background. Most of the clientele were senior citizens, although I did see a couple of high-school athletes who were recovering from sports injuries. Lastly, I'd like to commend First Choice's cervical traction machine--I like to call it the neck stretcher. It makes the neck feel like it's being yanked on, but I'm convinced it immensely helped me. In conclusion, if I ever require more physical therapy, First Choice will be my...first choice.

I wanted to warn any potential patients of Dr. Rigsby to seek another physician. I was diagnosed…read morewith a brain tumor and referred to his office. His attitude was that this was a death sentence. Told me that I needed to get a biopsy and that he could only do radiation once via port (incorrect). Also said that I could not drive due to sensory seizures which was false since I never lost consciousness. I mentioned second opinion and he immediately went on the defensive and got pretty ugly. To quote " Well do not come back to me to remove the staples" ! Long story short, I went to UAB and eventually had the tumor removed and underwent radiation and oral chemo. Tumor is gone and I am cancer free. Always remember there are "A" doctors and "F" doctors and I rate him a D. BD

Rather than say, " we may have an issue here", Hartzog lies the blame at my feet, insinuating, I would rather sit home and draw W.C. and that it's a neurological issue. I'm 54 and have worked since I came out of high school. This is the first time, in all those years, I have ever used W.C. Every week I don't work, and have to rely on W.C., I lose over $100.00. That's over $400.00 a month. And for him to assume that's the way I am, is unprofessional. Drop the ego !

Surgery was done to remove spur, instead repair torn rotator cuff. Failed to remove spur under rotator cuff. Didn't relive pain. Suggested reverse replacement. Time for another opinion UAB sports medicine looked at ct scan, showed spur was still there. Rotators was a mess and confirmed a reverse replacement was needed. Along with failed replacement surgery by southern orthopedics I got hit with the full cost of the surgery because no preop was done that would have caught that my referral ran out 2 days before surgery.
