            It has been an immense pleasure working with Dr. Dudley and all of his staff! I am now one year post-op from my right knee replacement surgery. Dr. Dudley and his staff have changed my life! My right knee is no longer causing me excruciating pain. I no longer walk with a limp, nor do I need a cane or walker to help with my ambulation. I have been able to stop taking two different prescription pain medications. I have much more energy and zest for life. I feel hopeful for a brighter future because of the changes this surgery has brought to my life. I am incredibly thankful to Dr. Dudley and all of his team for the way they have treated me and the gift they gave me of this "new" knee!

            I just love Dr Dudley . I visited another orthopedic surgeon awhile back . Surgery was literally his only solution . And maybe I will come to that but Dr Dudley did not push surgery . He gave me other options . At this time I cannot even think of surgery . I am a 24/7 caregiver for my husband. We would both be in the nursing home . He's just the best .... So was his Dad .

            I was disappointed after my visit with Dr. Dudley. I had come in to see him with significant, pain in my elbow that has been going on for 2 months and I've been to several doctors and he decided to start over on his schedule. And not give me any treatment whatsoever. It's a physical therapy and come back and 6 weeks. I won't be returning to him. I'll be canceling that appointment. I will do the physical therapy but I really don't think he listened to be at all. While he's a very nice guy, I'm very positive we new people won't be coming back, thank you.

            Mixup in arrival time/order of appointments. My chart indicated I was to have X-rays at 9:30 so arrived a few minutes before that time. Checked in and told to go to X-ray, then come back to registration to sign in for Ortho appt. In X-ray dept, after a few minutes of waiting, asked what I was there for. Told I had to be checked in and taken to room and then would be brought for X-rays. Placed in room around10 am (appt time) and then taken to X-ray. Sent back to room after and saw physician at 10:25. By the time I left, I had been there for approximately 90-100 minutes.
