Douglas B Freels

Had not read my chart, no idea why he was even seeing him and had the nerve to yawn the entire visit. Not pleased at all and will be going back to my previous doctor. No eye contact and nothing personal about the visit. If you do not have bedside manor at least know your patient. HIS PROFILE SAYS: About Me Care Philosophy Biography My philosophy in treating patients is to treat them as if they were my own family. I try to listen and offer alternative non-surgical treatments. If they are in need of surgery, I offer the options and explain the expectations . Engagement of the patient in the decision-making and having the patient understand what the problem may be is important for the patient to have the best outcomes. I try my best to restore the patient to their normal functional status so they can return to doing the things that they enjoy most doing without pain or loss of function

Dr. Freels is a good Dr. takes his time to answer all my questions. Did a great hip replacement surgery on me. Plus helped me with a Problem hip which no one else could do. He’s honest with his advice. Highly recommend.

Follow-up for upcoming knee replacement surgery. Hopefully we are close. Next appointment in 2 weeks... hopefully can schedule surgery date then

Discussed my case in front of another patient with another doctor for fifteen minutes while he was supposed to be with her. Sent me for two tests that he had no clue what the results said. Could not remember which leg was bad. Two hour wait past apointment time. Only seems interested in cutting. I would not recomend him to any one!

Surgery was scheduled for 1 p.m. my surgery was done at 7:30 that night what I was told would be done wasn't. My knee as bad today as it was when I first visit his office.
