Dr. Patel listened when I explained why I was there, and did an examination based on what I said was bothering me (as well as reviewing the information sent to him by the referring physician and the results of the x-rays they did in his office before I saw Dr. Patel). He explained and showed me the problem in a way that I could clearly understand. He then explained the different options. The option I chose to go with involved what I knew, and he confirmed, would be two painful injections. He was so skilled in doing those injections; they were indeed painful but I believe they were a lot easier to tolerate due to his skills. He is professional, personable, very through and very knowledgeable. I felt like he really carried. A word about his office staff; every single person I encountered from start to finish, including the person who called me to schedule my original appointment was wonderful. Thank you to all of you for your help!

I'm now six days post-PRP injection into my lumbar, and while there's still some soreness at the injection site, my daily pain level has dropped to a 1 or 2. It's early, but I'm really happy with the results so far. Dr. Derrington and his assistant, Jocelyn, are fabulous. They explained everything clearly and couldn't have been more professional and supportive throughout the process. Their office is also incredibly responsive to emails and phone calls, which makes a huge difference. I wouldn't look anywhere else for care--highly recommend!

They all made a very scary situation much easier. This was my second exact surgery and Dr. Samagh was kind and caring, and has such great bedside manner, something lacking in todays doctors. My surgery was so much easier than my first surgery two years ago, and my healing has been smoother with the help of both Garrett and Kristi's help. I would not hesitate ever turning to this group if you ever need surgery. They are at the top of game, and have new and innovative ways to get results that others don't.

I would have included photos, but they have a strict no-photo policy... and I'm a rule follower. So you'll just have to trust me when I say the care was excellent, the facility was clean and the experience was about as pleasant as a medical procedure can be.

My experience with Graybill keeps getting worse…read more More than a week ago, I tried to schedule an appointment with my regular primary care physician, whom I've seen for nearly eight years. I was told he had no appointments available until June, so I was scheduled with a PA I had never seen before. On the day of the appointment, I arrived five minutes late because of traffic. The receptionist was immediately rude and said, "You're late." I apologized and explained that I was stuck in traffic. She replied, "Well, they're very strict," and told me to sit down. Two minutes later, she told me the provider wanted to reschedule. I declined and said I would be filing a grievance instead. After I left, someone else from Graybill called me. She was also rude and unapologetic. While I was speaking with her, I had Sharp Health Plan on the other line and merged the calls. When the grievance manager asked whether the office has a grace period for late patients and whether patients are told about each doctor's preferences in advance, she said that policies vary by doctor: some will not see a patient if they are one minute late, some will see a patient if they are 15 minutes late, and some will even see a patient if they are two hours late. She then claimed that patients are always told these policies and are also told to arrive 15 minutes early. That was not true in my case. I never received any reminder or notice telling me I needed to arrive 15 minutes early. I still need medical care and am now left trying to figure out whether I need to find a new primary care provider. What makes this even more frustrating is that Pamela responded to my previous review and told me to call, but she gave me the wrong number. I later got the correct number from my primary care physician's office manager, called it, left voicemails, and never received a return call. Based on my experience, I would strongly advise anyone looking for a new medical group to think twice before choosing Graybill. They strive to provide the worst in patient care quality.

Not only is…read morehe incredibly skilled, but his bedside manner is hands down the best I have ever had the privilege of experiencing. I have been seeing him for a little over two years now, and his care has truly helped me through a tough time. Being young with MS and all the unpredictable muscle pain it has caused me has been difficult. Dr. Brizzie has given me immense pain relief and has significantly improved my quality of life I never thought would be possible. I can do so much more now. I was struggling with this from 2021 until 2023 until I found him that year. The pain after the second Moderna vaccine was unbearable for me. He was the only one to take my pain seriously, and I will never forget that. He actually listens, really listens, and shows care for his patients. Highly intelligent yet humble. That is pretty rare. He is proactive, kind, patient, and always makes you feel heard. I am ever grateful to him for helping me get my upper body pain and muscle pain significantly reduced. The trigger point injections have relieved my pain like nothing else has and given me the freedom to enjoy life without constantly worrying about it. When you struggle, it has been such a relief to have a provider show compassion. He is the best, truly amazing, and I am very thankful. Fusion Physical Medicine's whole atmosphere gives off zen vibes and tranquility. His practice is so peaceful and warm. It's very clean and comfortable. Everyone is extremely kind here from the staff to the nurses. I cannot say enough good things! Unlike how a stressful hospital environment can be, the vibe here is calm and comforting.

It's been quite a journey!…read more I've been on workers comp for over one (1) year and during that time have had a series of physical therapy related treatments -I was transferred out of the Sharp occupational medicine doctors office because they seemed to give up after not being able to fit me in the "carpal tunnel" box. I was referred out to an Orthopedist. Dr. Afra was the 2nd one I saw and although apprehensive due to my fellow Yelpsters review of him and the office staff, I decided to go with him after reading his bio and my online research of him. In my 1st visit, he provided me more information than I had the entire year in understanding my situation and how to move forward. He did not recommend surgery immediately but took time to have me go through more conservative treatment to see if my particular injury would get better. It didn't. I did end up having surgery after all but only after other options had been exhausted. Post surgery, I can say that although I'm obviously still healing and am not pain free, Dr. Afra is an exceptional surgeon and his guidance and treatment plan was what was best for me. I am continuing to see Dr. Afra for other areas of injury and can at least see a light at the end of this dark tunnel where I felt I may never get better. He IS pretty straight forward and does not sugar coat what he says but I prefer directness when it comes to my health. The entire office staff has been great, including Elvina at the front desk whose also pretty no nonsense, which again, I prefer. She has always been pleasant so I'm not sure why others have had the opposite experience. As far as Dr. Afra being pro-surgery, I came to Dr. Afra's office with him knowing I had previously seen another Orthopedist who didn't think I was a surgical candidate and pretty much wrote me off after 1 visit and a cortisone shot which didn't help me in the least BUT Dr. Afra was still willing to review my case, listen and treat me with surgery possibly not being an option at all. I will update my review as I continue my treatment with Dr. Afra and hope that anyone else who finds their way to him give him a try.
