The pain is awful at times, and has lead me to having cortisone injections and going to occupational therapy. The thing about Dr. Lorenze that I appreciate the midst is that he NEVER pushes surgery right away. I'm under the age of 40 and tendon release surgery is the last resort. Dr. Lorenze's bedside manner is the absolute best. Always empathetic, compassionate, understanding, and all around professional. Between going to his office in Essex and Madison, both places are well kept, always clean, and welcoming. Not once have I ever experienced anything bad while in the care of Dr. Lorenze. His medical assistants are wonderful as well. I've never felt more comfortable anywhere else. I'm currently in the midst of more occupational therapy sessions - to which I feel are going really well! If for some reason OT does not work out for me in the long run, I will opt for the tendon release surgery. It's a quick procedure and I know I'll be in the greatest of care! Dr. Lorenze's knowledge and expertise show for sure - he is very intelligent. I absolutely refuse to go to Yale New Haven or Hartford Hospital for any kind of treatment for my orthopaedic issues. Special thanks to Dr, Lorenze, who continues to provide the best quality care for me as I continue to navigate the world of Dequarvin's! If it wasn't for him I probably would not be getting treatment for this painful syndrome.

Making my way to the shoreline from Hartford area there was an unnecessary concern about finding…read moremedical care - I can now say Dr. Mark Lorenze and his staff have obliterated any lingering concern. All the things you want in a doctor and his staff are in place. The staff is professional, concerned, efficient, and friendly. I went to see Dr. Lorenze for three very different issues - hands, elbow and knee; understandably he handled each different from a medical but Dr. Lorenze was consistent from a patient perspective: Kind, listened, and explained the issues, providing detail and still elicited questions. He "stepped" the process for each area so there was always an understanding of how we would proceed. IMPORTANT: I went in with a patient point of view I was going to need three different surgeries; Dr. Lorenze took the better approach - he never discussed surgery or short-term injections as a first options, he waited until he had all the information then methodically approached each issue differently. Hands and elbow did not need surgery, was provided information on both and they are no longer an issue. My knee required surgery, the date was set quickly, the surgery center was fantastic, all staff were nice, professional, provided detailed explanations, Dr. Lorenze met with me and answered all questions. Surgery went perfect, everything i experienced was explained before I left for home so i was prepared, follow up visits were reassuring, i was provided surgery photos of before and after, had questions answered, and now its off to rehab at their own rehabilitation office connected to Dr. Lorenze's practice. Class act, professional and skilled.

I had written a good review of this practice but I'm afraid I have to change it due to one of the…read moredoctors there who is incredibly unprofessional -- Dr. Asiedu. The man threatened me and behaved in a very belligerent and condescending manner. The only thing good about this practice is Jennifer Clark, APRN, but she apparently has no power within the organization, so... I am seeking a new place for medical care. Whatever you do, DO NOT see Dr. Asiedu. He is the most unsympathetic and uncaring doctor I have ever run across. I was in a car accident with serious back and neck injuries and all he would prescribe for me was advil? Come on! I had been with this practice since Dr. Barse was in charge. I don't know who this Asiedu guy thinks he is, but he is certainly NOT a good doctor. Lastly, the office seems rather dirty and out of date. It's not in the greatest of neighborhoods, either. There are plenty of other doctors out there who have far better skills and facilities. Go to one of those places.

My 18‑year‑old daughter went to Dr. Waggoner for allergy testing prior to her scheduled wisdom…read moreteeth extraction. Due to a parent with extreme allergies, her oral surgeon felt it was necessary to test prior to the extraction. The doctor refused to perform any allergy testing citing false negatives and that the preservatives were the major concerns with allergic reactions. All valid reasons but as an 18 year old girl who is learning to navigate her own medical appointments, it was confusing. She was following the orders of her oral surgeon and being met with resistance from the allergist. When my daughter became understandably upset and confused, he dismissed her concerns and told her she had an "undiagnosed anxiety disorder." This was condescending, dismissive, and completely out of line. A doctor should never weaponize mental health language to shut down a patient who they have never seen as a patient and have no background to any medical information. My daughter called me from the parking lot, very upset that she was labeled like that. I spoke with the office and expressed my frustration with how she was treated and what would potentially be documented in her medical record. I advised that he omit his documentation of an "undiagnosed anxiety disorder" as this was not what her appointment was to address. The office quickly called my daughter back and asked if it was ok to rewrite the letter that she had received. My daughter said yes of course because she was upset that he had put something like that in her record. When she received the new letter, it stated that she had procedural anxiety. Most people have this but this was another passive aggressive way to keep the anxiety documentation in her record. Before closing this review, I will tell you that I DO NOT have them confused with any other practice (this is the typical response to a bad review in the reviews). I strongly advise others to look elsewhere!

I've been seeing Dr. Daniel Waggoner for several years for seasonal allergies. Last year, he also…read morediagnosed me for LPR and prescribed Prilosec, but you can only take it for two weeks at a time. In my opinion, he does not have a great bedside manner and lacks empathy for his patients. He comes off as self-important and smug during visits, which always feel rushed. Last Fall, I decided to start allergy shots, which is a huge commitment of time (two office visits per week for several months). After the first shot, I almost fainted. Dr. Waggoner said I had an involuntary vasovagal reaction and it may or may not happen each time I get a shot. I let him know I could not continue, never knowing if I'd be able to drive myself home. He did not even return my call after this episode, a nurse did and told me he was transferring responsibility for the Prilosec to my primary care physician. Yet still, I returned for my annual checkup a couple of weeks ago. It happened to coincide with recovering from a respiratory virus and I was wheezing. I also had a throbbing ear ache and when he looked in my right ear, he said I had a "foreign body" in there. He asked me if I used Q-tips, laughed, and mocked me. I said yes, I use them to clean the outside of my ear. He told me I would need to make an ENT appt. to have it removed. Two days later, I went to see my primary care and they flushed my right ear. They easily removed a bit of ear wax smaller than the size of a popcorn kernel. I called the office and asked if I could switch to a different doctor in their practice, but was told no, "it's against their policy." This is terrible customer service and this policy does not serve patients well. I was told I could leave a message for the Office Manager and they'd call me back. It's been over a week and no return call. I will not be going to this practice in the future. They treat you like a number and try to steer everyone towards allergy shots.
