I tore my left quadriceps tendon muscle about six months ago and was forced to have surgery in order for it to heal. Since then I've been here countless times. The staff is hit or miss. Sometimes they are there, other times they are hard to get ahold of (especially via a phone call). But you will not find a greater group of orthopaedics in SOWEGA (Southwest Georgia). They have years and years of experience under their belt. Just bring something to read because the wait time can be long.

On August 25, 2013 I seriously injured my left leg in a work-related accident. I had a 3.5…read morecentimeter quadriceps tendon tear from my patella (kneecap), large intramuscular tears, large contusions, and a sprained right ankle. By far the worse injury I've ever sustained. Had to have the surgery, spent five weeks on bed rest, wore a hinged leg brace for over three months, and spent the following six months in rehab and physical therapy. This is where I had to attend my physical therapy sessions for one hour three days a week. Two physiotherapists in particular that helped me were Mary and Kirsty. Big kudos to those two that encouraged me. They are knowledgeable and very experienced at what they do. They mostly massaged by thigh and had me doing leg strengthening exercises. I went from being on crutches, to being on a walker, to using a cane, and finally to walking again. All thanks to those two! Now if only I could find me a nice woman to rub my thigh at home :)

Well, I must give credit where credit is due. Dr. Robert Pilcher is one of the top orthopedist in…read moreSouthwest Georgia. A little background on my injury: In late August 2013 I was stacking pallets in the loading dock at my job. Little did I know that the pallet jack in which the pallets were located on was raised. A pallet that I tried to stack on top slid off and cause me to fall on the floor. A subsequent visit to the MRI I almost completely tore my left quadricep tendon off of my patella, suffered major contusions, and also sprung my ankle. I was required to have surgery in order to walk again. I had surgery the following month; it was successful. He installed a suture anchor into my leg which slowly helps the tendon reconnect to the kneecap. Was forced to wear a hinged leg brace and use crutches (later a cane) for about six months. After lots of physical therapy and doctor's appointments, I was slowly able to walk on my own again. My leg is no longer 100%, but at least I know that I am back to peak strength again and that I'm finally done with my routine checkups with Dr. Pilcher. I highly recommend Dr. Pilcher. He's been doing this for over 30 years and is very knowledgeable about the musculoskeletal system. He got me back to living a normal life again.

I can say I think Dr. Pilcher does good work and there is a young lady named Jenifer who is a great asset to his company. She schedules appointments for surgery and has always been helpful to me and my family every time we go in. If you need an orthopedic Doctor or surgeon go to Dr. Pilcher and say Hello to Jenifer.
