    This place was GREAT! I severely hurt my ankle running. This was not the first time I've had major…read moreankle injuries while running. The last time I did this I went to the ER and it took forever and my copay for an ER is A LOT! My specialty care is $65 so lesson learned so when I hurt myself again I decided to try this facility as they had an X-ray facility on-site and I could see a doctor in sport medicine. The whole experience was so pleasant from the front desk workers, X-ray tech and the doctor. Clean facilities, no waiting between phases I was in and out within an hour (That included sign-in, X-rays, nurse visit, doctor visit, and boot fitting). Highly recommend them and they have a nice physical therapy area as well (I did not try that part though)

    If you are in need of an orthopedic doctor this is the place. You get all of the experience and…read moreknowledge of Tulane doctors without having to go downtown. Another great perk is that they have physical therapy at the same location. That made it very convenient to have everything in one spot, and parking is so easy at this location. Everything about this place is convenient and easy. That's a huge plus when you're in pain and trying to get to a doctor or to therapy. I'd definitely recommend Tulane Doctors to anyone and everyone looking for an orthopedic doctor and or a physical therapy location.

    One day in 2001 I woke up with a sore left wrist. I figured I'd slept on it weird and didn't worry…read moretoo much about it. Weeks passed and the pain wasn't going away. I seemed to also be losing control of it somewhat. It was almost a daily occourance for me to drop and break glasses and dishes. One day I was getting ready for work. I had a pump style hair spray bottle in my left hand poised and ready to lock my locks into place and just...could not do it. My finger physically could not push down on the trigger without my whole hand and wrist recioling in excruciating pain. An MRI confirmed that I had a condition known as Keinbock's Diease, a very rare condition where the blood supply is cut off to the lunate bone, one of the small bones inside of the wrist. There are various reasons this can happen, but it's mostly found in patients with blood disorders or previous trama to the wrist. My case fell into the latter. All of the gymnastics I *tried* and the kart wheels all summer long with my sisters in our front yard did me in all these years later. Months pass. I became my condition. I poured over every orthopedic journal, book, website I could find that had any mention of my particular condition. In the meantime I was making appointments with every orthopedic surgeon I could find, since I knew surgery was my only option at recovery. You see, your bones need blood to stay alive and function properly. My lunate bone was black on the MRI...nearly dead. I was very close to completely losing the use of my left hand. Because my condition was so rare many of the orthopedic surgeons I saw had either never heard of it or only vaguely knew anything about it. It was a very disheartening time in my life. I had been raised to trust doctors and think of them on a bit of an elevated level because of their ability to heal and here I was, feeling like I knew more than they did sometimes with no answer, though, what I could do to fix my wrist myself. At this point I'm hopeless and scared. I have yet another appointment with a new orthopedic surgeon, Dr. Kathleen Robertson. She walked in, smiled, looked at my wrist and wiped the tear that had started to roll down my face away and made a joke about how I was ruining my pretty makeup with my tears. She assured me that we would figure it out and fix it. It didn't happen overnight but she found another surgeon who had a patient like me and had preformed a surgery where he rerouted a vein and it worked for him, so why not me? She made no promises but I had nothing to lose at that point so hey why not? I'll spare you guys with the gory surgery details and aftermath. Months of physical therapy followed, but guess what? That surgery worked. I now how full use of my left hand again. I owe that all to this woman. Without her I wouldn't have been able to pick up my babies and embrace them. Without her I wouldn't be typing this with both hands. Because of her I have faith in doctors again. **100**
