Remember a few months ago when I bitched about the terror that is Jason Cochran, orthopedic surgeon…read morefrom hell? Well I got a new referral to Kenton Waterbrook and he was excellent. Took lots of time with me to listen and understand my problems, did X-rays, reviewed all my medical documentation, determined that the cause of my pain is the IM rod in my tibia, was able to give me a detailed and logical explanation for why he could not do surgery to remove the rod, and gave me suggestions for how to manage the pain given that surgery was not an option. Night and day experience. If you need an OS in Lansing, I highly recommend Dr. Waterbrook.

I've been a patient of Dr. Ferro's for years, and he and the entire office has always treated me,…read moreand everyone I know who has gone here, with kindness, considerateness, and the utmost of professional care. my pain issues go back decades; Dr. Ferro is the only person who has been able to treat it effectively. Eventually I got a spinal cord stimulator with cervical leads; these stimulators are MRI compatible, and have been for years. It's been miraculous in its efficacy. I still struggle with low back pain but Dr. Ferro has been treating this with very good results for some time. he's absolutely the best when it comes to diagnosing and treating and I trust him, and his staff completely.

Went here for years. Finally let him implant a spinal neurostimulator in my spine. Couple years…read morelater I developed other spine problems. Dr. Ferro just acted like that's impossible because I have the stimulator. He had me get an x-ray and said that the problem is my hip, not my spine. They then set me up with an Orthopedic Surgeon (according to them, the best Ortho Surgeon in the State. The Ortho Surgeon look at the x-rays and took his own and examined me. He told me that their is nothing wrong with my hip and that the problem is my lumbar spine. (this was my issue for getting the spinal neurostimulator in the first place) I called back to Dr. Ferro's office and left a message and waited for a return call. (this is the only way to get in contact with them) I said "The Orthopedic Surgeon says that my hip is fine and that my lumbar spine is the problem" 2 weeks later I called again and left another message just saying I haven't heard back from the first. 3 days layer I get a call back from one of Ferro's office staff. She said "Dr. Ferro said to tell you that you need to find a surgeon" I then asked For what, my back? Or my hip?" She just hung up. After that they would not return my calls. I even stopped in and they were too busy to talk to me.. Left me hanging after I had been a patient for around 10 years. From my experience and the experiences from others Dr. Ferro is really big on a spinal stimulator being the magic cure all. And once he puts it in your problems are gone and he is done with you. The only way to get ahold of Ferro is to call and leave a message to get a call back. It's been like this even before my ordeal. Many times I would have to call repeatedly over a couple weeks before someone would call back. One time the staff person who called said that she had been trying to call me back for a week and couldn't get an answer. Well: #1. You reached me so I know you are calling the right number. #2. You can't lie about that anymore. When you call a cell phone, whether you get an answer or not the phone records the number that called. In that time period I had plenty of calls, but none from them. #3. Even if I didn't answer not only is the number recorded, but it also goes to voice mail where you can leave a message. I had none. So, since cell phones were invented you can't get away with the "I have been trying to reach you excuse". Also, be aware that once you get a spinal stimulator implant you can no longer have an MRI done. Dr. Ferro told me that it not a problem because he can tell as much from an x-ray or CT scan as an MRI. Wrong, I am slowly losing the use of my right leg.. I am about to have my spinal stimulator removed as I have a serious problem now that 8 Doctors and Surgeons have told me they can't properly diagnose me and won't even try surgery without MRI images. I even called down to the Cleveland Clinic and they told me "Don't even bother making the trip down to them if I can't have an MRI done.

I had an accident and completely severed my right extensor tendon, but for the first few days I…read morethought it wasn't that bad. Still, I took ER's advice and sought a hand specialist. I wish I had called Katranji right away, but I relied on Google reviews and was deterred by a few negative ones. So I called a different place. The problem is, the other place requires a referral just to schedule an appointment - which is a terrible policy in my opinion (Katranji doesn't require a referral to make an appointment). So I had to wait over a week just to get in to see my PCP first. That was discouraging because I found out later that surgery on this tendon should be performed within a week. But at least when I did see my PCP, they recommended Katranji instead. By the time I saw Dr Katranji it had already been two weeks since the accident (2 days before I called PCP, 8 days to get in to see them, and 4 more days to see Katranji because the appointment was made on a Friday). I'm grateful that Dr. K and his staff were as forgiving as they were knowledgeable. Because of the time that had elapsed I was concerned, but the doc told me it was fine, and was a relatively easy procedure. Surgery was two days later at McLaren. It went great and I'm on the mend with minimal pain. To summarize, everything that took place once I saw Dr. Katranji was positive, and his staff was kind and professional as well. I'm very grateful. Added bonus: I'm a musician and require the use of my right thumb, index, and middle finger. Luckily I still have full use of those fingers while the rest of my hand heals!
