Your trust is our top concern.

We strive to keep reviews honest, trustworthy, and fair.

Doctors can not pay for good reviews, nor can they pay to have negative reviews removed.

We monitor all reviews to ensure they comply with our guidelines and don’t include personal information, profanity, libel, defamation, harassment, obscenity or fraud.

Any reviews that are deemed fraudulent or violate our guidelines will be removed immediately.

All reviews are confirmed and audited before publication, and community members have the ability to flag inappropriate content for further review by our team.

Magic Doctor with excellent skills
My mother was operated on by Dr. Scott in June 2024 when she broke her femur. Up to now, my mother has completely recovered and walks on her own without using crutches. My mother's California friends admired how good the surgeon was when recovery came just 2 months after surgery.My family sincerely thanks Doctor Scott for everything (from his excellent skills, to his sincerity when interacting with my family and my mother before surgery).

Great Doctor. Very caring and listens to you!
Dr Scott did a total knee replacement on my left knee in April of 2024. I am scheduled for right knee in Aug 2024. Could not have ask for any better care from Dr. Scott or his staff! They are the best. He listens to you and you can tell he wants the best for you. So glad that I used Dr. Scott!

* If you need an Orthopedic Surgeon, I recommend that you call Dr. Christopher Cullen Scott . He simply is the best. I’d like to share my story in case anyone ever needs to have an orthopedic surgery. On thanksgiving day 2023 I was visiting my son and his family and celebrating my granddaughter 1st thanksgiving in Atlanta Georgia , in that afternoon my right femur broke resulting of the side effect of medication for osteoporosis I was given in Florida. I was rushed into the hospital and so worried that I am not from this town and not knowing any doctor. I was extremely fortunate that Dr. Scott was the on call doctor at Northside hospital Gwinnett. Dr. Scott was extremely meticulous and caring. His work ethic is also off the charts and he explained to me and my family to make sure before the surgery he addressed my questions, my fears and what I hoped to have happen. 5 days later after my first surgery when I told the nurse that my left leg is in pain, Dr. Scott ordered X-ray and sure enough my left femur was cracked and he came to my room and gave me the news that I needed a surgery on my left leg, but he told me the recovery is shorter than my right leg. He is an extremely caring and an amazing Doctor. With his skills and experiences, it’s probably a routine procedure for Dr. Scott , but he knew that it’s very important for me to know all about the surgery, the rehab, and what I need to do to get back on my feet as quickly as possible. Dr. Scott continually followed up with me after the surgery. He explained to me for the first 3 months I will be on wheelchair and walker, in less than 3 months I was able to walk without walker and in less than 6 months I was able to walk without cane. Frankly I can’t write good enough about how great Dr. Scott has been to me. I don’t write many reviews, but feel to spend the time to write this review because Dr. Scott has been a blessing to me and would go so far as to say that if you are considering Dr. Scott for your needs, look no further! I believe he is one of the best Orthopedic Surgeons. Office staff is incredibly nice and helpful and I always had good communication with them. Thank you so much, Dr. Scott.

I have a compound fracture to my left ankle, and Dr. Scott was my surgeon. I am so pleased with his professionalism as he is very knowledgeable, and explained my injury and what he was going to do in great detail. I am also very pleased with his bedside manner. He is very pleasant, and easy going. He listened to my concerns, and explained his concerns very well. It is difficult to find someone who does a great job in itself as well as a great job explaining the process, and Dr., Scott has this ability. I highly recommend him. Thank you so much, Dr. Scott. My family and I are forever grateful to you and your staff.

From my 1st consultation, Dr. Scott educated me on the procedure and every interaction with him made me smarter about what I was facing. In my case, I had torn my meniscus and had other damage not found until surgery. I was provided with pictures and was able to see the before and after. I experienced no infection and my incisions were clean are are healing fine. Dr. Scott's skills as a surgeon won me the first time so I had my other knee done by him. I trust and highly recommend Dr. Scott!!

On October 10, 2014, as a result of the negligence of Meadows Regional Hospital in Vidalia, Georgia, and Dr. C. Cullen Scott, my left peroneal nerve was severely damaged by an immobilizer after a routine procedure to repair a ruptured bursar. As a result, my physical well-being and my quality of life have been radically changed. With “foot drop”, I no longer run my routine of marathons, as I cannot even walk without assistance. I was offered no assistance from Dr. Scott in finding remedies.

I had my knee replaced as an outpatient, got to go home the day of surgery. Dr. Scott checked on me and the experience was top notch. I saved money and was in my own house with great pain control. Very nice and explained the process thoroughly. My knee is working great. He took a lot of time answering my dumb questions without getting irritated ever.

Dr. Scott rates excellent. I have had three total knee replacements,figure that out. Dr Scott did my last one in February 2017. My previous surgeon was good as well but he retired and I had to find a new one. I hit the jack pot on Dr. Scott. He is kind,takes time with you, not in a hurry. He had different kinds of recommendations for after care than hadn't been used before. My healing was better and faster than the two previous surgeries. At 7 weeks,my range of motion was almost complete. Thx.
