When I first considered going here, I saw the low reviews and I thought "Well it's not a…read morerestaurant. It probably doesn't matter." Boy was I mistaken. I saw Dr. Wing and he is without a doubt the worst orthopedist I've ever seen and one of the worst doctors. The care was adequate, which is why I'm not leaving a lower review. But he did not answer any questions or adequately explain what was happening to my leg. When I came back in for my followup, he didn't remember why I was there and once again failed to answer any questions I had. When I was having extreme pain, after I was supposed to be healed, I contacted him to discuss it. At first, he wouldn't even get on the phone. Then when I continue to ask the nurse my questions, he did get on the phone. He would not explain why I was still in so much pain. He did not want me to come back in or do any kind of further testing. He said well if it still hurts then go non-weight-bearing for six more weeks. I found that unacceptable so I saw a different orthopedist at a different practice. and day and night experience. That doctor explained exactly what was going on, what pain I could ignore/push through, and what I needed to pay attention to. And it turned out that if I had followed, Dr. Wings instructions, I would've made the situation much worse. Do not go here and if you have to, do not see him.

She was passed…read moreoff to 3 different doctors who would not address her concern of her 25 year old failing knee replacement and her ongoing severe hip pain. After her 3rd appointment with a different doctor, I am filing a formal complaint with the Georgia Medical Board; "My 80-year-old mother, who suffers from rheumatoid arthritis and has recently developed severe hip pain, was scheduled for an important appointment at AOC, her third appointment, to determine whether she needed a hip replacement or an injection. We arrived at the clinic on time, only to be told that she had missed the appointment. We later found out that the appointment had been rescheduled without any notification, and she was incorrectly marked as a no-show. This caused significant disruption and hardship. I had to take the day off work and drive over an hour to pick her up. My brother also had to miss work to assist her in getting ready, due to her limited mobility and fall risk. At the clinic, we were given inconsistent explanations--first that the doctor was running behind, then that he had left for emergency surgery. In response, the staff offered to have another provider administer an injection--but clearly stated this would be done without an evaluation or consultation, and that she would not be seen as a patient. Since the purpose of the appointment was to evaluate whether an injection was even appropriate, my mother declined the treatment, now feeling extremely uneasy about the level of care and communication. She was now left in serious pain, untreated and without guidance, while we are being asked to take another day off work for a rescheduled appointment. We believe this situation reflects gross mishandling of care, negligent communication, and a lack of respect for elderly, vulnerable patients." We called Piedmont Orthopedic Clinic and they swiftly made an appointment, did xrays, and determined that her hip was end stage and that her knee replacement was indeed in poor condition and that both would need immediate replacement. She just had hip replacement with them and will have knee replacement scheduled as soon as she recovers. AOC also did xrays and MRI and CT and the most they recommended was physical therapy. This is absolutely absurd that after imaging they were not concerned in the least of her condition and then cancels her appointment. They should lose their licens.
