My Primary Care Physician had opined that the rotator cuff might be the problem, and that cortisone might help. Within hours of the procedure, the pain was gone! Yesterday, on March 29, 2026, while visiting my wife in her hospital room, I leapt from my chair to prevent (successfully) a table from falling over and caused excruciating pain in that shoulder. My phone call to N.E. Orthopedics today confirmed my suspicion that it was too soon for a follow-up shot, but I was dismayed to hear that their company might not want me to return. Frankly, I was so shocked to learn that information that I merely hung up without seeking an explanation.

This is a comment about the treatment that I received at the NEOS Physical Therapy office in…read moreLudlow! Ma. i had shoulder replacement surgery in February and am recovering well. At my second appointment at the Physical Therapy office a heat pack was applied to my shoulder for 10 minutes. The rest of the appointment proceeded as normal with exercises. That evening I felt some wetness on my shoulder. As I examined it more closely, I had a 3 inch burn spot with large blisters draining. I returned to that office the next day and was told that such a burn had never happened before. I then proceeded to the Urgent Care office and was diagnosed with 2nd degree burns. I was prescribed an antibiotic cream to apply for the next 5 days. So not only am I dealing with the pain from my surgery, I also have to suffer with the pain from the burn. I will never allow any therapist to apply heat during my treatment.

I iced it, my neighbor bandaged it, aleve, ice, aleve, ice, rinse and repeat. After a sleepless night, went to Advanced Orthopedics New England (AONE) Urgent Care in Enfield. Well run office. Busy as the proverbial hive, but organized. Three x-rays (why does spell check prefer x-rated?) later, multiple fractures. Wrapped in gauze, etc...."come back in 9 days". Today was the followup. My mummification gets cut off, three more x-rays. Dr. Berkowitz - Healing well, good bone density, but nothing stupid (my middle name) for 3 months. Which brings us to Nick and Angel. Nick is the cast guy, Angel his affable protege. Nick learned his trade in the Navy. Did an excellent job. One suggestion - PAY THE $30 OOP TO GET GORTEX CLOSEST TO YOUR SKIN!!!!! I can shower again WITH IMPUNITY! Back in 3 weeks for more x-rated x-rays. Can't say enough good things about AONE. 6 - stars

He and his assistant went above and beyond to get my operation scheduled very quickly and helped out quite a bit with my insurance. Dr. Campbell gave me great advice regarding post-op care and ways I could save money without forfeiting quality (in regard to a brace). I trust the quality of his care enough to take the time to post a review. I only do that when I receive awesome service.

The staff goes from awful to even worse…read more I've had problems with my replaced hip hurting more than the hip that's waiting for surgery - 10 months out from surgery! They did an x-ray to see if it's infected - it's not - and i received NO further help or advice after that. I tried for over a month to schedule a pre-surgery appointment with my doctor. I called repeatedly - they never answer the phone, it's always a bad time for them - and left a whole list of dates that i can be there, dates when the doctor confirmed he is at the office. I asked them to pick an open date and time and assign me an appointment to avoid more phone tag. No go. All i got was another empty call telling me to call them. I called and called. No appointment, just the same message to call them every time. I wrote to my doctor and he confirmed that he has time he can fit me in on some of the dates i offered for an appointment. I called the scheduling line back again and told them that the doc says he can see me on one of these Tuesdays - and still nothing. I decided to leave after being treated rudely and neglectfully by staff on a repeated basis. I was given false information about the costs of my surgery, then ignored when i complained. I complained about the staff being racist, rude and neglectful, and i was ignored. During the pre-surgery interview, the PA was beyond rude and blatantly hateful - she refused to answer ANY of my questions or concerns about the surgery, she would only robotically read off the questionnaire i had just filled out and ask me to repeat my answers. Then she walked out without answering any of my questions. It goes on like that. I requested my medical records and this idiot on the phone was telling me that my ID number can be fake, but somehow a photo cannot??!! What century is that person living in? Meanwhile, the ID number and personal details on your ID are what can be verified. They refused to give their name, then hung up on me. Folks, you have a legal right to your medical records, so long as you pay the fee. Refusal to surrender records is an act of illegal non-compliance. I called the main office to speak to the Client Relations person, Kerry ( i guess, no one spells names there). After 20 minutes of being on hold, i was transferred to an answering machine. I've tried that route before and only received an empty letter that resolved nothing - after about a month - and then no response when i called to talk about that letter. This is their routine.

I was greeted with a blunt demeanor and basic questions, as was the person in the next room (the office has thin walls). He did not give adequate time for me to answers or explain. He spent about 10 minutes with me then ordered x-rays (I had sent a CD with x-rays taken a month ago). There is no computer in the exam room to discuss the results, he showed me a picture of an x-ray on his phone. There are charges if you want a copy of the doctors notes, x-rays or to have your records sent back to you, I've never had this at other places. My insurance was charged twice the amount as other orthopedic surgeon appointments costs. I gave 2 stars because he did give a opinion but if I knew what the place was like I would have gone somewhere else.
