Unequivocally the best knee/joint surgeon in all of Florida. Dr. Bookout is a very competent, highly-qualifued, caring and thorough surgeon. From my first consultation through to my surgery (and beyond), he provided personalized, quality care. He did x-rays in office, and, as it was indicated, immediately ordered a CT Arthrogram. Once that was completed, he called me personally to tell me that surgery was warranted. His office staff took over with scheduling the surgical procedure (arthroscopic knee surgery to clean out the joint), getting me the required paperwork, getting everything approved through my insurance, getting me a walker for after the surgery, and being available for any questions I had. They called in the indicated medications three days before the surgery, so I had time to get them filled ahead of time, and gave me printed, clear instructions as far as a map of where to go, and what to do/not do the week/day before surgery.
The surgery itself went fantastic. Dr. Bookout came to say "hello" before surgery and offered to answer any final questions. My pain and anxiety were addressed 100%. In fact, it was the best surgical experience I've ever had (and I've had quite a few). He did a phenomenonal job on the surgery itself (the pain was well addressed, and the recovery has been going very quickly), and he went in person to update my husband after the surgery was over. Dr. Bookout has a very high standard of care for his patients and their families. The surgery center (Andrews) was the best I have ever been to. The whole team was kind, compassionate, knowledgeable, professional, and 100% determined to make the whole process as easy and pain free as possible. I would absolutely see Dr. Bookout for any future problems and I'm so glad I found his practice to treat my knee. A wonderful doctor and a talented knee surgeon. read more
