Misdiagnosis by Dr Larry Woodard My Daughters Story..., Feb 1, 2012 This Dr. Misdiagnosed my daughter with having the flu and did not run the proper tests needed for a proper diagnosis She was later properly diagnosed at another hospital with meningitis and encephalitis after having a spinal tab. because Encephalitis needs a prompt diagnosis for treatment to begin for recovery she was denied that chance and was put on life support died Thanksgiving day 2006. I hope her story will help other before choosing this Dr. at this hospital |

Kitty has sharp claws! Ouch!! Alpha Female Power itch..., Nov 23, 2011 I was having trouble with a physical therapist who had done a poor evaluation and was in a great deal of dysfunction and pain related to my spine/pelvis/hips. I was encouraged to see Shenk for a more in depth exam. My husband and I drove three hours to see her. She supported the P.T. entirely without doing a good exam and lectured me as if I were a naughty child. MOst of the appointment was me picking my jaw up off the floor because I was so shocked at her attitude. I was basically set up for more failures and the opportunity to regain function back to my spine and hips to a good level is LONG GONE! Shameful woman-doesn't seem to understand the definition of objective or compassion or thorough. Good luck! |

Bad communication, lack of after care and follow up, sloppy staff. ..., Oct 24, 2011 I went to Dr Willis after a car accident, she has prescribed various meds and failed to call me with my MRI results after a week of waiting. When I called the office the girl who answered the phone just blurted out "oh yeah we have the results and we are referring you for an epidural"!! The doctor never called me to discuss the findings of my MRI and then was passing messages to the girl who answered the phone rather than being a real doctor and talking to me herself. The girl who answers the phone is usually on personal calls discussing her own health issues which is horribly unprofessional. I am disgusted with the lack of Dr patient care and will be looking to change doctors once I can find a good one. |

This is how medicine should be practiced-very affordable..., Sep 29, 2011 Dr. Jain is very nice and helpful. He does not order a lot of unnecessary tests and is able to do a lot in his own office which is a lot easier than getting referrals everywhere for simple things like ingrown toe nails. He can even do xrays and put casts on for simple fractures! And the pricing is the most affordable I have seen! Will definitely refer my friends here. |

Disappointed with Dr. Brian S. Edkin's abandonment of care after so many mistakes..., Sep 23, 2011 Dr. Edkin performed 2 hip implants on my wife using the DePuy ASR implants. He did such a poor job on both that my wife never recovered from crippling pain, then he informed her that both of her implants had been recalled due to a high failure rate and poisoning from chromium and cobalt. He offered no apology, no remedy, and no advice. As soon as he felt she became a liability to his practice he basically dropped her. It took him 8 months after informing her of the implant recall and that she could be in danger of chromium and cobalt poisoning, to do a blood test for it and he found her metal levels were elevated. She has had these implants in her body for over 2 years. Aside from a test for infection he ran because of her constant crippling pain he basically told her “just give it time”. He never did the appropriate testing to discover her true condition. So we had to find another specialist and we did. They immediately ordered MRI, Bone Scan and Hip aspirations to determine her true condition, after which they replaced both implants correcting Dr. Edkin’s work. They found and removed significant damage of her soft tissue from chromium and cobalt ions. If we had continued to trust Dr. Edkin that damage would have only been getting worse, and who knows how long he would have let it go? |
