Here are some of our favorites:
I have free range of motion, even more so than I ever did before, and I don’t have to worry about holding anything heavy or injuring it or damaging it again. It’s awesome! – Angie
When I first met Dr. McDonald, he was very good at explaining what was going on with my hip. Prior to meeting him, I had no idea what was going on. My hip was hurting all the time, I was fearful it was something that was never going to go away…he made me feel comfortable; that is was something we could work through together. – Lori
Now I swim; I do a lot of walks; I do whatever machine I want to at the gym. – Beverly
At first, my body wasn’t responding to any treatment, and I was getting really hopeless. And it was really hard for me to stay positive because I know there is no cure. Dr. Koval and the other medical professionals and administrative staff took their time with me…and they really care about the people that they see, and you can just sense that. – Amanda
Dr. Laverty was the on-site orthopedic surgeon at X Games Austin in 2015 when I was competing in BMX Big Air and had an accident that resulted in bilateral calcaneus fractures, torn ACL, and fractured L-2. After assessing the damage, Dr. Laverty put a plan together that put me first while considering my future ability to compete.
After surgery Dr. Laverty came to my room, pulled up a chair, and explained the extent of my injuries, how he fixed the damage done, walked me through the recovery process, and discussed my long-term outcome.
I never felt at any point during my experience that I was just another patient he needed to talk to on his way to the next patient. Dr. Laverty is a highly skilled surgeon that cares about his patients and has surrounded himself with a good team as well. – Chad Kagy, BMX competitor
Thank you for your wonderful efficiency and joyful attitudes at the Central location. We were greeted with big smiles and kind voices. It was wonderful that Dr. Mukai came out herself to take us back to a room right away. – Patricia P.
I saw Dr. Hardy for a second opinion and I wish I had gone to him first! – Carol D.
My life is wonderful with the new knees. In 2006, I could not walk because of the pain. Now, I can use both legs to go up and down the stairs. I would like to express my appreciation to Dr. Smith and his PA Jerry. I thank you very much for all you have done for me. – Haruko S.
I'm thoroughly impressed with Dr. Bunch. He has the rare combination most people look for in a doctor: extremely intelligent but also friendly and compassionate. He welcomes questions and gives you his full attention. His NP Angel is equally amazing, and I feel every bit as confident in the level of care when I have an appointment with her. Really a great team! – Susan P.
Dr. Mukai and Meredith Albright, PT have been terrific. My back pain is nearly gone thanks to them. I know I'll feel better soon and I appreciate the care and compassion they both provided. – Susan F.
Dr. Smoot changed my life. Thank you for your impeccable service to your field. Mike is a super nice guy as well. – Dan H.
I spent over 30 years working in allied health care. Over those years I got pretty good at spotting quality in medical practices and I've gotta say that I think Dr. Smoot and the staff at Texas Orthopedics are the cream of the crop! Dr. Smoot is one of those rare physicians who actually listens with both ears and patiently discusses issues at hand while seated and looking you in the eye. He's obviously smart, but also empathetic, thoughtful & funny. – Sue R.
