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.

I expected more
I read all kinds of good things about dr Ferguson. He did a knee arthroscopic procedure. I didn't see him at all that day. He was supposed to either come see me or tell my son how the surgery went. He did call my son, just to say I was out of surgery. I was given no warning about the nerve block I would receive, and even with assistance I fell at home. I called recently to reschedule a follow up, and his receptionist was extremely rude because I couldn't hear him. Actually mocked me. I'm done. I'll do physical therapy at home.

Outstanding
Dr. Ferguson gave me a no nonsense exam of my beat up knee. I don’t need surgery and need to keep up with strength exercises. Glad to have a honest exam.

Excellent Quality Patient Care
My experience with Dr Ferguson began as a patient admitted thru UMC Emergency with a broken ankle & torn ligament resulting in surgical repair, surgery was successful. Clinic check-in for appointments have been immediate. Post-Op visits during recovery have gone well, wait times for X-Rays and to see the doctor have been under 15 minutes. Dr Ferguson has explained X-Rays, progress and expectations in detail at each visit. Dr Ferguson and all staff members have exhibited professional, friendly, and excellent compassionate patient care.

Dr. Ferguson has been a superb physician from the first office visits to a total knee replacement and manipulation under anesthesia. He is a surgeon who listens, cares, responds in a timely manner on the patient portal and takes pride in his work. You immediately know he is interested in your case and care. I would give him more than five stars if the choice were available.

Dr Ferguson has performed two procedures on me. A knee Arthroscopy and a Rotator cuff/tenodesis. They were done with all expectations being met. Dr Ferguson cleaned out and repaired my shoulder even though it took more surgical time than was predicted. The extra effort he put in on me has made him my Ortho doc of choice. He has also seen my two teenage children with sports related injury's. I recommend him for any and all sports medicine issues.

I could not be more pleased with the care I received from Dr. Ferguson. I work in the operating room with him, and have always seen him take excellent care of his patients. I chose him to take care of me because of this care. To be able to have full range of motion, do what I want and be pain free is all I can ask for. I am very pleased with my results from my rotator cuff repair. I highly recommend him for anyone who is seeking an orthopedic surgeon!
