The first rule of medicine is supposed to be "first, do no harm." Unfortunately, that principle…read moreseemed completely lost at this office. (Edit: I should specify this was with Dr. Shatby's office.) My primary care doctor referred me here after an X-ray came back negative for bone break/fracture. My PCP believed I likely needed an MRI and evaluation by an orthopedist. Before the appointment, I confirmed my referral had gone through, provided all my information, and was told they were only missing the X-ray results. They gave me a fax number, I contacted the imaging center, and had the results faxed over. Problem solved - or so I thought. I arrive for my appointment only to be told the doctor refuses to see me without the actual x-ray imaging files, despite already having the radiologist's report. Instead of explaining this requirement beforehand, the receptionist immediately tried to push me into getting another X-ray done right there. Her response? "Don't worry, it's only a $10 copay." That completely missed the point. I didn't 't care about the copay. I care about exposure to unnecessary ionizing radiation and unnecessary repeat imaging when my PCP already believed the next step was an MRI. Why was I being asked to repeat an X-ray I literally just had done less than a week before? Hmm... I declined the repeat X-ray, drove all the way back to the imaging center, obtained the DVD myself, and brought it back to their office the same day. I had to actually get a physical DVD because this office also does not have any method in place for receiving digital records such as x-rays. OK, so let me get this straight: their office REQUIRES the original images, but yet they have NO WAY to receive such images except for an antiquated DVD, and if someone does not have said DVD, then they require them to get NEW images, coincidentally done at THEIR facility, or else the Dr. won't see the patient? Does that seem appropriate to you? Finally, after all that effort, I was then told the doctor had already left for the day. So they wanted to reschedule me for the following week. To make matters worse, they charged me the co-pay for the appointment, which I am disputing. They are also trying to bill my insurance for the appointment even though I was never actually seen (disputing that also). The entire experience felt less focused on patient care and far more focused on funneling patients into in-house imaging. Maybe there's a perfectly innocent explanation (I doubt it), but when a patient is pressured to repeat x-ray imaging they already completed, despite a specialist referral specifically for an MRI evaluation, it raises serious concerns, to say the least. Patients are not just billing opportunities. Repeated radiation exposure may be "small" each time, but it is cumulative, and unnecessary exposure is still unnecessary exposure. The complete lack of coordination, communication, and respect for the patient's time and SAFETY was unacceptable. Stay far away. I will not be returning.

I arrived for my appointment this morning at HM Orthopedics in the Woodlands only to have my appointment cancelled because all I had to pay was cash--a whopping A$25. The young lady told me, "We haven't taken cash in three years." Then she asked, "Can you pay it tomorrow? I'll ask and see if they will let you continue to the appointment." I told her yes, that would be perfect. Hell, I could've paid it that afternoon after I deposited the money into my account. As she was typing things into the computer, I said out loud to myself, "I'd rather deal with the cancellation than deal with the bullshit of not taking cash." Her response, "Sir, you don't have to speak that way to me." I told her, "I'm not speaking to you, I am speaking to myself. I wasn't looking at you when I said it. If I were speaking to you, I would looking directly at you like I am right now." That's when she told me to have a seat and she would see about getting the payment worked out. I took a seat and she came and advised me that the appointment would have to be rescheduled. Well, no. No it doesn't, because I'm not coming back. This has made me realize that Houston Methodist organization doesn't care about their patients and whether they are in pain and need medical attention, all they want is their money. Am I an asshole? Damn straight I am when I'm forced to be. I stand up for myself and what I believe. I WAS a patient and I had a medical need and I was turned away because I didn't have their preferred method of payment. I had enough money to pay for the visit, but they wouldn't take it.

I am amazed to see so many one star reviews but realize that people are going in with problems that are painful and not always 100% repairable. I have never experienced the staff issues with either Dr. Cannon or Dr. Shah's staffs. Dr. Cannon did my right shoulder in May of 2001 and I was back to original strength and flexibility as before my damage. In 2008, I had my left bicep detached at the forearm due to me thinking that I was much younger than my years playing volleyball. Dr. Shah re-attached it and the recovery was smooth and complete. In 2010, I tore my left medial meniscus in my knee while bowling. I went back to Dr. Shah and again the results were excellent. He advised me that I have a fair amount of arthritis in that knee so to be aware that there could be ongoing issues. We introduced a treatment of SyncVisc not long after surgery and I have not had any issues since. In 2012, I re-injured my right shoulder (old on the outside, young in the mind). This time to Dr. Shah. The recovery was long being in an abduction pillow, however, with excellent phyical therapy downstairs, I was back to 100% being able to do anything that I used to in time. I re-injured that right shoulder again 18 months ago while working overseas (fall in my apartment) and now finally getting the time to get at it. Today, from the time that I checked in until I saw the doctor was 8 minutes! When does that ever happen? I will get an MRI to check current level of damage but would not think of going anywhere else for my surgery.

I am writing to share a disappointing experience my parents had here. As long-time patients, my…read moreparents deserve expected better treatment. In the past years it was not this way and I will say, the physicians have always been kind and patient. No problems there. During a recent appointment, they were unexpectedly informed that they owed money for braces, which had already been paid for. This misinformation was not only confusing but also upsetting. Additionally, the staff's communication was unprofessional. They spoke to my father in a condescending manner, questioning his ability to pay despite his background as an eight three-year veteran. This approach was disrespectful and unnecessary. Our elderly community should be treated with dignity and respect. To make matters worse, my father has reached out to the office manager multiple times but has received no response. This lack of follow-up further undermines our confidence in this practice. He has worked hard, never paid a bill late, from a generation where your word is your bond. I would recommend exploring other options for orthopedic care. We have a fantastic medical center in The Woodlands that prioritizes compassion and respect for their patients. Unfortunately, this practice has not met those standards. ---

Dr. Fisher is Super professional at how he does things. He doesn't push you into surgery even…read morethough you know you need it but instead asks you a lot of questions and gives you tons of information letting you make an informed decision about what to do. I don't feel like a number in his office as I have in many other dr offices where I have waited an hour in the waiting room and then over an hour more in the actual patient room before seeing the dr who comes in quickly says hi and then basically leaves. I got in quickly to see Dr Fisher and he immediately sat down across from me and started a conversation with me about my knee. It just felt like we were old friends. I never felt rushed and felt completely comfortable asking him any questions I needed knowing he would answer them honestly with years of experience. I need both of my knees replaced at the same time due to my job, and while no other Dr I've heard of would even entertain this, Dr Fisher said that not only could it be done but that he had done it before! He did however explain the added risks, recovery time, added complexity of the dual knee replacement PT, and added pain which of course I greatly appreciated unfortunately even though I'd prefer to do them separately I just don't have that as an option. My right knee is the worst as I had an ACL removed in 1984, but found out 12 years ago that the dr that did the surgery also accidentally removed my meniscus also, so I've been bone to bone since 84. The left knee has been used to compensate and therefore also may need replacement. After getting an X-ray done quickly in his office Dr. Fisher told me the left one may be ok for now so since he already knew the right one needed replacement he only ordered an MRI on the left one to see if surgery was even necessary. I appreciated this as a one knee MRI will be much cheaper for me than both. I will update this review after my surgery. This is not the first time that I've seen Dr. Fisher. I also saw him once earlier last year before I had 5 discs fused together in my neck from a car accident. My neurosurgeon wanted to make sure the pain in my shoulder was from my neck and not an additional problem in my shoulder. Dr Fisher was who he recommended and I was glad he did! He did an inter office X-ray and in office observation and testing to determine that my shoulder was sound so I could continue with my neck surgery. I remembered then how professional he was, how he spoke on my level where I could understand him, and never talked down to me as some doctors do. I told him there on the spot that I was going to need knee replacement soon and that once my neck was done I'd like him to do it. Normally I research surgeons extensively before making a decision of who I will let cut on me, but I knew when I met Dr. Fisher that there would be no one else that I'd ever let do it but him. See Dr. Fisher and you will see EXACTLY what I am talking about. He is truly one of a kind in every way! Thank you sooo much Dr. Fisher for taking the time to visit with me, explain all of my options, be honest enough to even explain how painful this is going to be, and honoring the decision that I made on how I'd like to proceed. I've seen sooo many different doctors throughout my entire life many who were very good like the world renowned neurologist I've seen for 50 years, but NEVER have I seen anyone who holds a candle anywhere near you when it comes to honesty, integrity, compassion, thoroughness, and quality of care than you! I'm soo blessed to have found you! If you're having any kind of joint problems see this guy as he's truly the Best! As you can see I don't leave many reviews so when I do it's either amazingly good or horrifically bad usually the latter. Dr. Fisher is BEYOND AMAZINGLY GREAT!!!
