Dr Richard Jones At Southeastern Sports Medecine Dr abondoned my after getting paid big $ Asheville North Carolina
Dr Jones said he expected that he could help me regain an active life through surgery and a year of physical therapy and modified activity. He damaged the nerves in my shoulder, but did not seem to care nor remember from visit to visit.
All went well until less than two years after surgery when I began to experience a great deal of pain. He spent ten minutes with me and concluded that I should cease (at 33 years old) all activities that involve using my shoulder from YARD WORK to my other light exercises and NO fun. He said I should expect that and we accomplished our goal of stabilizing my shoulder, however that was not the goal we discussed before hand. He does not remember anything we talked about!
I could have saved myself the time, pain, money, time, money, and been inactive without the operation! Now he acts like it is a foregone conclusion that I should sit on my rear-end forever popping tramadol pills. Again, why bother with the surgery? It hurt less before the procedure than it does now.
Now he says that we accomplished our goals. He says that it is now stable, but what good does that do me if I have to modify activity to almost nothing and hurt a lot? He can't remember what he says, then asks the same questions every time you see him.
If you are considering letting this man cut you, think long and hard about what kind of support you may need in one or two or three years. If you want someone to keep caring and treating you if you need it, then GO ELSEWHERE!
