Every department I have dealt with at this facility has been very poor. From trying to make an…read moreappointment(put your life on hold for an hour), to the initial exam by Dr. Chapman that was so aggressive that left me in pain on my good knee for 3 days to just now getting off the phone with them when they sent me a collection demand letter and then a week later sent me a statement for the actual services received... of course the representative was rude. DON'T GO HERE. My doctor was Chapman, when he was comparing my good knee to my bad knee he kept popping pulling and digging his fingers under my knee saying he was trying to find my ACL. It was so intense that he left my good knee bruised for three days and my bad knee now had this large bulge under it that was much more painful than before. I saw another doctor at Mayo which is where I am going now and his evaluation was delicate compared to Dr. Chapman. MRI was a pain to deal with because they had a young inexperienced tech who wrote things in her chart that I never said just because I have a small needle in me. People get MRI's all the time with metal in them and this was tiny. I had to make at least 20 more calls to departments with numerous unreturned calls to finally get the MRI. My doctors assistant at one point cancelled my appointment as I was on my way there so I could not answer my phone while driving and then I never got her to return my calls. Made three calls that week to reschedule and still never received a call back. That's when I finally called Mayo and I feel like it was a call from God. I had people approach me in the store without even knowing me to say not to go to New Mexico Orthopaedics and now I understand why. Scheduling, billing, the doctor, MRI, medical records, all of the departments were challenging, even compared to other local large medical facilities like The New Mexico Cancer Center or the hospital. I cannot even imagine the nightmare of going through with a surgery with them. Save your sanity. Go somewhere else. There are other options!

I work…read moreclosely with pre-op & surgical services, I see a confusing & disjointed flow from both the patient & employee perspective. But at NM Surgery Center, I didn't get that feeling. My pre surgery contact was nothing less than professional. I received calls and texts reminding me of appts. Preop screening was done over the phone -saving me a trip. Billing called the day before to remind me to bring: insurance cards, ID, etc & what my copay On the day of surgery the registration office was in the same room - no trekking all over the hospital looking for offices. Once I signed in I received a text when registration was ready for me, the nurse text me that she would be out shortly etc. My wife & I were brought back to the preop area and prepped quickly allowing each provider plenty of uninterrupted time to talk with me. Each step in the process was fully explained so there would be no surprises. My wife was able to follow my progress via text . The recovery room stay was quick - within an hour of coming out of surgery I was in the car and on my way home. Everyone I came into contact with was professional, knowledgeable and enjoyed their job. As a surprise I received a get well card in the mail. It was signed by the surgeon, nurses & the anesthetist involved in my care. Truly a professional experience. If you w to are having a day surgery and this place is an option you'd be foolish to go elsewhere. The other hospitals in Albuquerque could learn something here.

A visit to Dr. Heckl is by far the worst medical doctor visit I have ever had in my 48 years! He…read morekept me waiting for 1.5 hours (!) in paper shorts in a windowless office. No apologies when he finally showed up. The whole visit seemed to be his excuse to get his day back on schedule. He took NO time to examine my knee. He literally said, let's just get to the end, and filled out the electronic evaluation while complaining that nobody should ever vote for President Obama and obamacare as it forces him to do paperwork now?!? plus his 6 best friends in the business have left (because of paperwork?!?). I had to stop him and ask him to feel the swelling in my knee and tell me what happened to it. His response "ah, its probably little pieces of cartilage that broke off and are healing; and don't take ibuprofen to attack swelling (even though my primary care had me doing it)" why no ibuprofen? he never bothered with that detail! As he was quite literally RUNNING out of the examining room (why?!), he did say he had some injectable "stuff" that I could get from him for an extra cost. Of course, he didn't actually give me any information as to what this injectable stuff was, what it would do for my current condition and/or if it were for future protection of the knee. STAY AWAY FROM THIS NUT JOB!
