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.

Falsified last medical report, let me go w/o fix
Horrible doctor who lies to his patients. He messed up my hand to where I couldn’t use it. Falsified his last report. My primary doctor gave me the name of the best hand surgeon in Arkansas. I had to go to Little Rock to have my wrist rebroken & his mistake fixed & get the use of my hand back.

Wanted to thank Dr Michell. No delay in scheduling my appointment. Dr Michell quickly and accurately diagnosed frozen shoulder. Administered shot and handout. Started exercises on my own a week later. Mobility improved immediately. Almost 100% in 6 weeks.

Was seen for a ankle injury. No scan was ever ordered just an x-ray (which does not show tissue issues obviously), however he didn't "feel" any damage (how reassuring?). Now I'm prescribed pt and honestly was not impressed with the "care" given.

I tried to get an appointment and left my number with his nurse. I left the info that I had fallen and broke my nose, messed up my knee and has fluid on it and problems with continued brusing and mobility plus a sizeable cyst on my left thumb that needs removing. I am almost 70 and was told at the St. Michael's emergency room to see an orthopath. I have Medicare and gap 100 percent paid for all medical treatment. They said he had to have a referral. No I don't!!! They pretty much blew me off and not in a very nice way. I do not recommend trying to get an appt with him.

This doctor recommended surgery for a running-related knee injury without ever addressing the root cause of the injury. After surgery, my pain was as bad as before, and he told me I could either "quit running or live with the pain." I lost all respect at that point. Wait times are long while face time is short, and his nurse is rude.

Dr. Mitchell is a physician with excellent medical skills. I am eighty-six years old. Thanks to his knowledge and care, including surgery, I still walk and I swim laps again nearly every day. I trust him with my life. Elfriede Wilde

I felt the pain management after surgery was inadequate, the post surgery rehab was poorly prescribed, and the build up of scar tissue was a result of this, the break up of scar tissue was so extreme that I thought my hip had been broken.

Did not help with knee issue at all, the pt that he ordered gave more info on knee than he did, but physical therapy was completely non helpful. Not really sports minded in our opinion.
