I injured my ankle in October 2021. I went to urgent care and was told it was just a sprain, before…read moreseeing my normal nurse practitioner, getting an MRI, and finding out that I needed surgery(had two complete tears of my ATFL and my CFL). I was talking to the athletic trainer at my school about it and he said "Might as well have the best in the country operating on you" when he asked if I'd like to have my surgery done at Andrews. Me and my parents did research on Dr. Waldrop. I was nervous to have surgery done until meeting Dr. Waldrop. The first visit with him was November 19, 2021 and he confirmed that surgery would be necessary to fix my ankle. He answered all the questions that my mom had about surgery and made sure to tell us what he would be doing procedure wise. We got the surgery scheduled for 10 days after that. So on November 29, I had my surgery and after having surgery and going through physical therapy, I haven't had anymore injuries to my right ankle(Thank you Dr. Waldrop!!). Now, I've seen him probably 5 or 6 times since surgery. I just saw him last month August 2022, for a follow up appointment, but unfortunately had to let him know that I was still having some problems with my ankle. Dr. Waldrop had me moved to a room where he could do an x-ray to check the stability of my ankle from where he fixed it and he told me that my ankle stability was good. After talking to him more about what was going on, he talked to me and my parents about letting him put a shot in my ankle. I'm not a big fan of shots and normally refuse to get a shot, but I trust Dr. Waldrop, so when he said the shot was probably the best thing for me, I decided to let him give me the shot. The shot hasn't helped as much as I had hoped it would, so when I go back to see him, I'm hoping that we can find out for sure what is wrong with my ankle. I highly recommend seeing Dr. Waldrop and his team if you have to get ankle surgery. He really does care about his patients and how they feel about their injuries. I personally would not want to see anyone else to have my ankle treated. I'm very glad that Dr. Waldrop was the one to do my surgery because having the surgery has improved my quality of life greatly. If you want a surgeon that takes the time to talk to patients, explain your injury, and take the time to explain what can be done to treat it, Dr. Waldrop is the best person to go see!

After the procedure, if I had not had help, I would have had the impossible task of taking care of myself. They expect you to be able to take off work or deal with intense pain with no pain medicine. Our healthcare system has been ruined. If you have a procedure here, do not be under the assumption they care about your pain. The doctor had to stick me multiple times(over 6 shots in each toe) with lidocaine to numb my toes. On the bright side, most of the staff was amazing and kind. Also, they got me a quick appointment and got me back to a room very quickly.

Since I was pregnant, my treatment options were limited. Before Thanksgiving, I called to make an appointment to see Dr. McKeon. She helped my husband with some wrist pain he had so I knew she could help me. They couldn't see me for almost two months but I knew it would be worth the wait. Parking and navigating the building was a bit confusing but I eventually found where her office was located. The check in process was quick and easy. My appointment was at 9:00 and I was called back around 8:55 AM. Dr. McKeon was in the room by 9:05 AM. She diagnosed me and gave me an injection to help. She gave me some literature on my diagnosis and told me what to expect and what to do if the pain resumes. For the first time in six months, I feel like my wrist is going to get better. I hope I don't have to come back but if I need their services, I wouldn't hesitate to do so.
