He said I was young and didn’t need physical therapy after a broken femur …. I’m still struggling to get by almost two years later. Every day hurts and now after I saw another surgeon who recommended physical therapy that I can be somewhat normal. My one leg is now shorter than the other so I have back pain.

Years ago, he operated on my ankle. He never admitted, after several surgeries, that the foot was deformed. Got second opinion at U of Iowa and that ankle specialist took one look at the x-rays and said, "This is bad. This is really bad."

My mother died from horrible post care from a hip surgery resulting in an infection and sepsis. Never looked at her incision, had her remove her clothes to look at her leg, took her temp, watched her walk, etc. Too busy...spent mere minutes with her each time and we felt like a number. Despite or efforts to keep her alive it was too late. Find someone else. My mother died from horrible post care from a hip surgery resulting in an infection and sepsis.

Spent zero time with patient. In and out as fast as he can. You're a number. Did no follow up post hip surgery with my mom, didn't examine her wound, do blood work, didnt watch her move....horrible post surgical care and she had both a blood clot and died of Sepsis post surgery. If I could give a zero I would

Dr Pape is a very good physician.

I couldn't ask for a better surgeon. Dr. Pape has taken such great care of me. Since my injury with my pilon fracture to my right leg, on September 8th, 2017, he has made sure my healing process is as comfortable as possible and his expertise is more than greatness! Thank you Dr. Pape! -Angie Weiler

Poor surgeon. Kept me in surgery an extra 2 hours because he couldn't find a bone fragment in my wrist. Put two pins in my wrist and then a cast. Pain was incredible but, he ignored me. After my insistence, he took off the cast and to his shock, he said he thought he trimmed back the pins far enough but, didn't. The pins were sticking out so far, causing me great pain. He said he needed to remove them right away. Still ignored the pain I was in after the torn cartilage. No sympathy from this Dr.
