Updated: 3/10/2026 Read the latest at the end of my review. I have an appointment for a MRI on Saturday Feb 21st. My new doctor thinks I may have deeper issues than just trigger finger. I've already seen him once since my ordeal at The Orthopedic Group. They did an x-ray and did a short evaluation of my finger after a lengthy consultation about what I had to endure prior. I go for a MRI to determine whether something more serious and severe is going on with my finger. My new doctor thinks it might be a fluid situation possibly. But he wants to make sure by means of the MRI imaging. This is what I've been needing and hoping and praying for. I just feel like the orthopedic group or at least the doctor I had didn't care about me and my way of life or occupation. It felt like a hurry up and get him out of here thing looking back on it. Not much care or thoroughness was taken because I was paying out of pocket instead of insurance. The orthopedic doctor I'm seeing now has done two prior surgeries on the same left hand and he did a very good job. That's why I've decided to go back to him. Also because I just finally got my Medicare insurance started this Feb 2026. I only went to the orthopedic group because of payment plans, biggest mistake of my life to say the least. In addition to this post I have to say that I truly am not trying to put down the orthopedic group. It's the fact that I had a really bad experience there. Many other people love that place but for me it was not good. Dr. Glenzer was my doctor at the orthopedic group and his personality just seemed a bit more in a hurry rather than get it right. At least for me, that's my take on him. I do wish all that go there the very best of luck however. My new and former doctor is very thorough and listens to my concerns very carefully. He's done carpal tunnel surgery and trigger thumb surgery for me which were very successful. He also did a steroid shot injection back years ago on my right thumb which did wonders. The only other thing I might say about the orthopedic group is that after Dr. Glenzer had agreed to do a free incision surgery but I was billed afterwards a small amount. They also required me to pay for the office visit the day of the free surgery. This feels like , pay us for screwing up your finger with a botched needle procedure. Totally unacceptable!!! If it had gone successfully I would have had no problem but the second procedure needle surgery was just bad ! I feel very let down by that establishment personally. Good luck to you if you choose to go to the orthopedic group establishment practice. After my MRI results it's been determined by my new orthopedic doctor that I have lots of scar tissue. My question to the Orthopedic Group is why wasn't the scar tissue removed at the time of the follow up free surgery? I also have some fluid buildup! I'm very angry about how Dr. Glenzer took care or not of me and the surgery. It felt like I was not a priority or a concern. He agreed to do the following up surgery after all my pain and frustrations. Now I'm getting billing statements from the orthopedic group. I have a voicemail saved of his call to me telling me that he wanted to make things right with me and agreeing to do the follow up surgery for free. I was also charged an office fee the day I went there for the follow up surgery. As a guitarist that depends on my fingers to make income this is just not acceptable. Total disregard and respect to me and my profession is what I'm feeling. I now have to go through some grueling physical therapy to try and get back to some sort of normal. My new orthopedic doctor says he could go back into the surgery process to remove scar tissue buildup and possible fluid but he wants that to be a last option. I for one will never go back to the orthopedic group for anything. The whole experience with them and Dr Glenzer has been nothing short of a nightmare for me. read more

Waited 45 mins to be seen. Need to speed the process up or not stack so many patients in a time block. Everyone's time is valuable to them, but so is the all mighty dollar I guess. Dr was nice. read more

Great operation with 9 locations in the area, and 4 physical therapy locations. They've got an impressive lineup of doctors, (MD's & DO's), physician assistants, nurse practitioners, physical and occupational therapists. They've been around for 40 years and specialize in orthopaedic care of the spine, shoulder and elbow, hand and wrist, hip and knee, and foot and ankle. Their board-certified doctors and staff have extensive experience in evaluating, diagnosing, and treating all orthopaedic injuries and conditions. Our specialist is Dr. Michael Blackmer, who is a DO (doctor of osteopathic medicine), which I prefer, and has been very thorough, thoughtful, and has made great medical decisions and referrals. They have multiple regional hospital affiliations as well as surgical centers. There's online scheduling available from their website, and their communications are top of the line. Bottom line: Excellent professionals that are friendly and proficient. Highly recommended!! https://www.theorthogroup.com/locations/foley/ https://facebook.com/103257207895184/ read more
