  Provided extremely poor treatment for my father's cancer..., Jan 25, 2012

Dr. D. treated my dad's throat cancer (a term he never used with any of us). Dad responded very well to chemo and would have to remain on chemo the rest of his life. (His tumor in his neck had burst and he had a nasty wound that he had to deal with, but even it was doing well as he was switched to a milder chemo routine to keep the cancer from growing. And he was doing really well with that treatment.) Dad developed a knee infection and Dr. D stopped all treatment until knee doc released him. Dr. D continued to ignore my phone calls that dad's neck wound was really looking bad, saying he could do nothing for him at this time. Finally, knee doc suggested knee treatment be put on hold so cancer could be treated. So Dad went to see Dr. D and he still said there wasn't anything he could do right now, and he refused to look at his neck when asked to (of course, dad kept it bandaged). We brought dad to Louisville for treatment, but it was too late by then. The oncology doctors in Louisville were just mortified at his neck and the treatment he had received. They found it unimaginable that Dr. D. never looked at his neck (the actual cancer) and ignored his cancer treatment during the course of treatment of the knee infection (9 weeks approximately). Of course, we are heartbroken. I only tell my story in the hopes of helping someone else. In the end, dad regretted mine and my sister's pleas to get a second opinion in Louisville from the beginning. That one step could have changed everything. I hope this review helps someone make a better choice in choosing their oncologist.
  Dr. V Has Really Helped Me With My Back Pain In Just Two Months..., Nov 30, 2011

I have been coming to Dr. V for about two months now and I cannot express how happy I am to have made this decision! I came in, skeptical, after having thrown out my back. I could not walk, sit, stand, or take care of my newborn son without experiencing extreme pain, at only 21! I was religiously taking pain killers, but nothing was getting better. After only two weeks of treatment my pain was gone! I could play with my son again! I was so happy with my treatment; I even brought my son in for a check-up. After having been pulled out at birth, he had been having trouble rotating his head both directions. After only two adjustments (that's right, TWO!) my son is looking both ways with no problems and he has been happier ever since. I'm so happy I came to Care Chiropractic and even happier I brought my son in. Thanks to Dr.V, I can look forward to a happy and healthy life for me and my son. Thank you, I couldn't have asked for a better SOLUTION.
  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!
  ***************HORRIBLE, TERRIBLE, DO NOT USE!!!! ..., Oct 12, 2011

I went to the ER with what was diagnosed as gallstones and needed gall bladder removal surgery. He was sweet and funny and told me to call and schedule the surgery for thurs or fri with one of his associates because he would not be able to fit me in the following day, but if he had been able to, he would have admitted me. I called the next day, they told me I needed to go in for a consult, meaning missing more work so that they could get more money?! WHAT?! I said well, I was just supposed to schedule surgery, he already did the exam and history at the hospital, so it's just the paperwork? could you please have him call me since this is not what he told me and I had another person with me that confirmed the same story as I was saying? He called me back, was rude and condecending and told me that he was referring me to another group because I would not want a dr that is unhappy with what I was saying performing my surgery! is that a THREAT?! I was in excruiating pain and he's going to play games?!
  Just wants to get in and out of the room without listening..., Aug 19, 2011

I would not recommend Dr. Woods if you are having any type of issue at all. He just wants to get in the room, do a quick pap smear and exam, and get out of the room as quickly as possible. He does not take the time to listen to issues, and just brushes you aside.
