Mark G. Dr. Metwally has replaced both of my hips in the last year and everything went very smoothly and recovery was very short. I was up and walking only hours after surgery. Dr. Metwally was personable and the staff was as well. All of the staff I interacted with regarding appointment scheduling, insurance coverage, and payment were all extremely helpful. I highly recommend Dr. Metwally for excellent care that will really inprove your life. read more

Competent surgeon for hip replacement. Very poor post op physician encounter, unwelcoming of patient questions, quite unprofessional, even aggressive response to patient concerns. read more

I was referred to Dr. Metwally because I need revision surgery on my left hip. I have a partial, metal on metal replacement in this hip, which has outlived its lifespan. It is over 12 years old. I am in chronic pain. The metal on metal device is also leaching metals -- chromium and cobalt -- into my body, and those levels are many times above average. While Dr. Metwally is accepting new patients, I was told that he would not see anyone for revision surgery (tearing out the old hip and putting in a new one), unless he had done the first surgery. I find this kind of concern for new patients in pain to be shockingly low. read more

I had a total right hip replacement at the end of January 2020 by Dr. Metwally. I was extremely nervous about the procedure. My health has been excellent to date and in 66 yrs. I haven't had any major health problems, much less surgery. I decided I had to go ahead with surgery because hip pain was preventing me from riding horses, which was a red line for me. Dr. Metwally, Dan and the entire staff were terrific throughout the entire process, providing me with thorough consultation of options and support as I neared a final decision to go forward. Surgery was done at Providence Hospital. Everyone there from the nurses to the anesthesiologist and physical therapists were so kind, helpful and professional. I let everyone know I was a nervous wreck and what my fears were on the big day. Never once did I feel people weren't listening to me or not giving me enough of their time before heading to the operating room. I really don't remember much until I woke up in recovery, was wheeled to my room, and found myself ready to eat a burger and watch TV. I had very little pain or discomfort of any kind. I took one oxy pill that night. From then on, just an Tylenol on occasion. The next day, I was up and walking, heading home by noon. That evening, my cousin and I walked a few blocks to dinner. Two days after surgery, I was no longer using a walker much less a cane. Within a week, I was walking normally. I'm back to riding horses after 8 weeks. I must confess that I have always been in good physical shape and have very low body fat which I am sure contributed to my successful recovery. But, I also know that I made absolutely the right decision to go with Dr. Metwally and also the right decision to go forward with surgery so I could keep doing what I love. I write all of this to encourage other people who may be as afraid as I was to know that, at least for me, the entire experience was a very good one. It is wonderful to be without pain. read more

I cannot even begin to express my level of distrust in this facility. I'm unsure if it's Veterans they have a problem with or if it's just their attitude in general. I was here a year ago for a left knee issue and was seen by Nurse Practitioner D. Tibbets. His personality was impolite and coarse no matter how friendly I was. I sort of chalked it up to a bad day. I didn't have to come back because the knee issue sorted itself out. However, when I was referred to this facility again recently, I requested another Dr.'s office. Unfortunately, my insurance is not accepted by Southern Oregon Orthopedics and short of traveling to Grants Pass or Bend, I was left with only this facility. My appt today was with PA Kiran Aulakh. I was there for a torn meniscus. The first thing that occurred, when the staff set my appt 2 weeks ago, is that they said they would contact an imaging office for x-rays. I mentioned this was for a meniscal tear and didn't need x-rays and that I'd had an MRI done by my referring physician. The staff member said Dr. Metwally ( herein Dr. M) had specific requests for x-rays for all his patients. I mentioned that I'd also had x-rays taken before the MRI to which she replied that Dr. M had a specific stance he required for x-rays. In my opinion, the demand for additional x-rays exposes the patient to unnecessary gamma rays and suggests he's milking the insurance companies to line his pockets. The 2nd thing that occurred was that the imaging office never called me and when I called them to inquire, they reported not having been contacted by Dr. M's office. We got it all worked out and I was able to get into the imaging office an hour before my appt. with PA Aulakh (herein PA A.). Thirdly, while I was waiting to be called to an exam room, one of the staff spoke to a man waiting. He had on a Veteran cap, so I speculate he was a Veteran as well. She said to him, loudly and without discretion, that they were cancelling his 2pm appt (it was 1:47 pm) because the lady who was going to see him had to pick up her child from daycare. (Again, speculating that "she" was PA A.). He calmly mentioned that this appt had been in the books for 2 weeks to which the staffer replied that there was nothing that could be done about it and she would reschedule him for next Friday. You can imagine his surprise to be rescheduled a week and a half out. I missed the outcome because I was called back to exam room 2 3/4. Because the # 3 would have been a problem? Now, we get to the meat.... after bp taken, notes made by staff, PA A. comes in and introduces herself. Opens up with "after examining your x-rays, the usual process of care for this injury is IBUPROFEN, PT, cortisone shots, hyluronic acid shots, then total knee replacement surgery." This is where I stopped her and said I was in here about my meniscus. To which she rudely replied that a meniscus was cartilage and couldn't be seen in an x-ray. And so paraphrasing the rest... "Yes, I understand, that's why I don't understand why your office requested x-rays.".... "Well, I don't have an MRI to look at so we'll talk about the x-rays." .... "But I'm here about my meniscus and I had an MRI done in January.".... "Well, we're not going to look at that right now, we're going to talk about total knee replacement ."..... "I'd appreciate it if we'd talk about my meniscus.".... "No, we'll discuss your x-rays.".... "I think we need to get Dr. M in here."... "Yes, I agree." She fiercely demanded I sit down in the exam room while I waited for her to get Dr. M. By this point I was done with being pushed around so I kindly and firmly told her I would stand in the doorway. When she pulled Dr. M out of his exam, he started to walk past me and I spoke to him that we needed to talk about this misunderstanding. His reply... "I do not know you and we have nothing to discuss." Me... "Hi, I'm so and so, and your PA is discussing total knee replacement surgery for my meniscal tear, we have plenty to discuss." Dr. M.... "I do not know you and we have nothing to discuss, get out of my office." Me... (thinking no problem), says "you have not heard the end of this." Me to patients in waiting room... "I would, under no circumstances, trust this Dr. or his PA." Exit stage right. Sadly, Dr. M is the only orthopedic surgeon available to a lot of patients in the Medford area. I believe he thinks he can act this way because he's a doctor, and maybe even a good one, but he's the only available option and because so, line his pockets with unreasonable demands and unnecessary surgery and procedures. It's time to take a stand against this monopolizing cheat and put him out of business! read more

My husband had a knee replacement in April, he is totally back to normal in may, the whole process was awesome, from the office to the hospital. Dr, Metwally's expertise was awesome. of course the patients must do their part for the dr. to have success. Would highly recommend !!!! read more

My husband and I have had a total of 7 surgeries performed by Dr. Metwally since 2004. We are so grateful for the expertise of this surgeon! I had a left hip replacement in 2004, both knees replaced in 2008 and just 3 weeks ago Dr. Metwally did a right hip revision from a hip replacement I had in 1995 (22 years ago by a different surgeon). Steve had both knees replaced in 2010 and a right quadricept reattached in 2016. I told Dr. Metwally a few years ago I should get a tattoo that said "Created by God with replacement parts by Dr. Yaser Metwally." Seriously, he is a great physician, personable and a has great sense of humor. If you live in Southern Oregon and need an orthopedic doctor we highly recommend Dr. Yaser Metwally. Steve and Shirley P read more

Dr Metwally performed my second total knee 6 weeks ago. Things went great, I was always treated with respect and kindness by him, his PA Kiran and his office staff. I put all my trust in him, he is a great surgeon. He always is so friendly and caring, I highly recommend him as a surgeon. read more

I had my knee replacement surgery in August 2017. Dr. Metwally's knowledge and skill are amazing. He is caring and tentative throughout the entire process. Dr. Metwally and his staff were professional and supportive at every step of my Surgery and post op care. I would highly recommend Dr. Metwally to anyone looking for a good orthopedist. read more

WARNING: this dr is prone to unprovoked, animated emotional outbursts (I.e., temper tantrums)! I was getting prepped for surgery when he came in & cancelled it abruptly. It took me 2 yrs to finally get this badly needed knee surgery on set up & scheduled. Like the other reviews mentioned, he kept talking about amputation, lawsuits & infection. Then he blamed the anesthesiologist for canceling after I had received preop meds & everything. When I asked to speak with the anesthesiologist, Metwally just exploded! He started waving his arms around & yelling at me that I didn't care about my own safety. He left slamming the door but not before quitting as my dr! I was devastated & in shock! I had never seen a professional behave in this manner. Now I have to start over& I don't know how long I'll be able to walk. Instead of lecturing me on the Hippocratic Oath, maybe he should re-read it. I don't think it includes ruining his patients' lives! I agree with the others; he should lose his license. read more

Before surgery I'd been in a walker for 3 years, and was in severe bone on bone pain, overweight and on prescription pain medications. Dr Metwally was the only doctor who would do my surgery without making me lose the weight first. He said; "It is a quality of life issue." and boy was he right! I had both my knees replaced 12 years ago and everything still works great-- and still pain free. I cannot tell you how much that improved my life. One month after my first surgery I was able to return to water aerobics at the Y. One month after my second surgery I was riding my horse! I dance, exercise, build and work on the ranch without pain-- even after 12 years! Not only is he the best surgeon this side of the Rockies (check his credentials-- he was educated at the Mayo Clinic, for gosh sake) He -- and his staff-- are the nicest, kindest easiest folks to work with. I highly recommend them all! read more

Not much on bedside manner but amazing surgeon. I will take a crass surgeon all day long.
