He has a terrible bedside manner. Told my husband to sell his pain meds and smoke pot. Office staff are horrible and discuss patients in front of other patients and loud enough for whole office to hear. Rude. They also over charge to complete disability paperwork. Go to a different doctor. read more

I would like to start with the front office.. they were very helpful and thorough. Not to mention nice..but, the Dr. was not nice at all! First, he was grumpy and forgetful and not to mention called my 13 year old son FAT!! He did this 3 times. Not a nice thing to say to anyone. I would never go back to him or refer him to anyone. read more

The first time I went to this office. I was very disappointed. The doctor came in and started talking to me about the British and their guillotines and so many beheadings they carried out but then when the French started using the guillotines they quickly passed up the Brits. Sounds crazy right? Oh it gets worse. Second time I had to go in he left me sitting alone in the room to take care of personal business after yelling at his employee. She had told him someone needed the address of his hanger. He yelled the name of the place and for her to look it up. That she could ask Google. She started to say something and he interrupted her to yell," You don't know anything, they don't know anything, nobody knows a god damn thing." I heard him in another room asking his phone for the address then went back to the employee again yelling. That's the address but they can't get in without me."! " I have to be there ! It's double locked." When he came to my room, he told me he was a family practitioner 45 years ago and you used to just give a cortisone shot and send the person on their way but now they don't do that. He gave me the most painful shot of my life in my shoulder. About an hour after leaving the office, I called to ask how long it would take to start working. The woman said", it's only 3 so by 5 it should work. I told her I was in a lot of pain. She assured me it would just take time. Well I got worse and the pain had me in tears and vomiting. Next day I called and told her to please let doctor know what happened and put in my chart in allergic to this shot. She said," oh it sounds like it didn't work." Maybe I should tell doctor ". I said yes, I'm asking you to and to chart it. She said," I can put in your chart." I could not believe what was happening. By this time I, my husband, and friends were praying that he would not do a manipulation surgery. I asked my husband to go back with me on my last appointment. He was shocked at what he heard. First we were told," Dr. is late because of traffic." Later my husband told me he heard them talking and he wasn't in traffic. He was in court. When he came in he said ,"So your cured". I said no, I had a bad reaction to the cortisone. He had me move my arm to see if it had gotten better. I told him I had been working on it. He then had me Mo ring my right arm. I told him that nothing is wrong with that arm , it's the left. He then tells my husband," I told her to join a gym." He had never said that to me. Then he said he didn't know how he's supposed to be doing a surgery if he can't use cortisone and told me I'm not allergic to it. Then the kicker was he tells my husband ," She's a wuss." My husband said , no she can take a lot but she was really bad after that shot". The doctor said," Aw, she's just a wuss. He said this at least four times. I will not go back. I would not trust him to do any procedure on me. Very unprofessional , rude and disrespectful. The team at my physical therapy office say I'm tough and even have to get me to not push so hard because I overdo it. So a wuss this lady is not. The doctor also stated," medications work differently for people. It's ridiculous that they give the same medications to black people that they give us. They're not like us. I know they're human beings but they're not made like us. " I was not believing what I was hearing. I have friends of a variety of races and I felt like I got punched in the stomach. Not a nice place to go. read more

My knees have been bothering me and I am grateful that Dr. Hale is a knee specialist. He gave me 3 injections on my knee a year ago and I have no longer needed to wear a brace on my knee. I can now wear my high heels and not have any pain the next day. Thank you Dr. Hale for "fixing" my knee pain. I also have to commend the professional and very passionate staff of Dr. Hale. I have seen them deal with difficult patients in the most professional manner!! Ten Stars for each of his girls!!! read more

Office: no wheel chair. a little cramped I get it but come on, you got people with broken legs coming in, maybe at least one to transport customers? Nurses: rude, dismissive, not at all helpful. if you're injured, bring someone to help you, they won't. I broke my leg, my sister brought me here and she helped me onto and off of everything. At one point, they moved me into a casting room because it was the closest room to the X-ray room and they said they wouldn't need it. finally some compassion. The nurses show us where it is and my sister makes sure I get safely to the room and helps me on the table, the whole time the nurses watching. We figure we will be sitting a bit and they said they wouldn't make me move again so my sister went to grab us a quick bite to eat. Shortly after, Dr. Hale pops by to holler that I need surgery and he's surprised no-one in the ER saw that. So now I'm extra scared and in tears and alone and the nurse comes in to tell me I have to move cause they do need the room after all. and I have to move back to the furthest room down the hall even though only one of the other rooms was occupied. I ask if I can wait for my sister to help me and they said no they need it now. I shoot my sister a quick, need surgery and they want this room text, and carefully slide myself down to the bottom of the table and off it. The nurse, who watched me struggle hands me my crutches and walks away. I have not been walking on them regularly even at home. getting to that office and down the hall to the X-ray room was already tough and I at least had my sister making sure I was safe. Now I had to go down the 50 foot hall with no support whatsoever, in so much pain I am LITERALLY in tears. It takes me a good 5 minutes to get most of the way down the hall when they finally say I can just turn into the room I'm currently closest to. This was not an act of compassion but done because they wanted to get out of there for the day and I was taking too long for them. Seconds after I get back on the table my sister is back having turned around to come help me move. I explained they wouldn't let me wait because they needed the room and she said there was no one even in there. Dr Hale: dismissive, pushy, pervert, grabbed my breasts...broken leg, how they correlate I don't know. He told me I needed surgery by hollering it as he walked by the casting room I was in at the time, uh thanks for the privacy. After I had been moved and my sister returned and he came in to explain things with my X-ray. he showed me a gap between my knee and tibia and said it had broken off. what had broken off i don't know because when I asked what he meant he just got more frustrated and said it broke off, you need plate and screws to hold in place. He said he could do it next day, which was good I guess. But I wasn't entirely comfortable with the level of care/service I received and told him I'd like to call my Uncle real quick. This annoyed him tremendously. I called my uncle who said go ahead and book it and then research the dr. since I hadn't before hand. So we made the appointment for surgery and dr hale starts the paperwork and I guess the nurse called the hospital to book it or the blood tests. The hospital calls me while I am still in with dr hale and my sister. Since I am answering Hale's questions I hand the phone to my sister and she takes it outside. shortly after she leaves the room he then checks my heart rate then grabs both my breasts (full hand, full boob) and my stomach under both of them and walks away asking more questions. I am so stunned I keep answering and then my sister comes back in the room. All I can think is if he'll grope me like this here, what will he do once I am under? Too beaten down by my long day to say anything, I try to think of reasons to cancel my surgery. I need it, but maybe not that bad. Luckily, as we're leaving the office, my uncle calls me back and says DO NOT DO SURGERY WITH HIM. he has baaaad ratings. Having experienced his office first hand myself I see why. Luckily, the next call is the Surgery office needing me to come in for bloodwork. I told them I wasn't going to do the surgery after all because I'd like a second opinion, they offered to tell Hale's office for me so thankfully I didn't have to deal with them again. I did get a second opinion who agrees I need surgery but that i need a trauma specialist and a regular orthopedic won't be enough. Overall Experience: If I could give 0 stars I would. If you respect yourself at all and consider yourself human, do not go here expected to be treated as such. Everyone is condescending, no one truly cares and they will watch you walk down a hallway in tears rather than get off their ass and help you in any way. However, if all you value is getting in and out and don't care how you are treated or what kind of service you receive, this may be the place for you. Basically, only go here if you hate yourself or are in a hurry. read more

Made a same day appointment because I broke my ankle two nights ago (walls and alcohols don't mix well). I've previously went to urgent care to get a splint. When I got here, Dr. Hale and his staff were all really nice and friendly. Ended up getting the X rays done again and left w a cast. read more

I am so grateful for Dr. Hale and his staff! He performed knee replacements on both of my knees and I haven't felt this good in years! Gina is wonderful also. She called me to tell me that she already had my authorization for an MRI before I made it home from my appointment. They're very friendly and the wait time is minimal. I thank them for giving me my life back! read more

I think Dr.Hale is best Orthopedic I've ever seen. He took the time and explained everything and answered all my questions to the fullest. His staff are wonderful it's a very small office but they are very kind, it's kinda like going to visit friends one of the girls knows almost everyone by name. I love Dr.Hale and his staff I'm so glad I was directed to him by another friend. read more

GREAT doctor! One of the kind you don't find anymore, who knows something about everything and is really smart and experienced. He also speaks Spanish and is very kind to children, and they have their own X-ray machine so you don't have to go somewhere else and wait hours and hours. Five Stars! read more
