Excellent service with the entire organization, highly recommend, they explain your injury in laymen language, you will not be disappointed. My surgery was February 18th and now I am almost sore free, no pain and James Reid did such an excellent surgery, I don't have enough complements for that man, where he went in and made an incision there is no scare and during the recovery period I took no PAIN pills, and going to the office for follow check ups the STAFF was awesome, smiles on faces and extremely friendly, if you need help go there.

If you have to break arm, then this is the place to go! Dr. Reid is an amazing surgeon and he did an Olympic effort to put my gravel, I mean arm bones, back together. He is one part engineer, one part artist, and one part fun guy to talk with. I don't know how to ask for a better doctor. His assistant Skye is also amazing. The whole practice is easy to deal with from Billing, to text messaging, to online check-ins, and x-ray technicians with a sense of compassion and humor, I recommend all of them. I wish Covid regulations let me have my wife in the room for the first visit, but such were the times. Everything that Dr. Reid said would happen, happened exactly on the schedule he said it would. My arm feels great now. Thank you, Dr. Reid! If you have to break arm, then this is the place to go!

Dr Reid is personable, patient and extremely knowledgeable. I recommend him without hesitation.

I will start off by saying this is a very frustrating practice. It is nearly impossible to get an appointment; took me two weeks to finally get into see Dr. Reid. I was very disappointed in his bedside manner, he does not listen and constantly interrupts. He wants to tell you stories about himself rather than listen to you. I would recommend searching for a different surgeon. He can also be incredibly sarcastic and can make you feel demeaned. I will start off by saying this is a very frustrating practice.

Always a pleasure, the best in the business. Staff is very helpful as well ????

Thanks for the great work Doctor Reid!! My hand is feeling a lot better than it was!! Thanks again!!

Dr Reid and his assistant Skye are the friendliest people. They actually care about the patients and you can feel that when you go into the office. I highly recommend Dr Reid to anyone who is looking for a hand doctor/surgeon. Incredible bed side manner!

I had a good visit. I liked Dr. Reid a lot.

I had surgery performed by Dr. Reid on my left hand in August 2021. The procedure went very well. Cornerstone Orthopedics has an excellent and courteous professional staff. I came back when I developed the same medical condition on my right hand. I consider Dr. Reid to be an outstanding Surgeon who I highly recommend. Thank you Cornerstone Orthopedics and Dr. Reid for an outstanding job.

Dr Reid is very knowledgeable and skilled as a surgeon. He fixed my arthritic wrist without metal joint implants and gave me information so I could choose minimal but effective anesthesia and pain meds. He explained his procedure clearly and answered any questions I had. I appreciated his care for me as a patient and person. I also appreciated his willingness to fit my surgery into the end of the year amid my busy travel schedule. I would definitely recommend Dr Reid.

Horrible bedside manner and downright rude! He instilled absolutely no confidence in his skills and seemed like he didnt want to do the work. He told my boyfriend his "music career is over" just blurted that out and said it with a sneer! He had no sympathy or emotions at all!

I cant stress enough that Dr Reid does not have a calming bedside manner. He did not invoke confidence in his abilities as a surgeon nor did he show the patient any confidence in his ability to recover from the injury. He did not notify the patient immediately when he decided to drop him as a patient, despite numerous attempts to contact him via phone. He waited a week and a half to notify him via snail mail and, due to the holidays, subsequently caused the patient a major delay in finding a new surgeon. This caused further injury and almost certainly caused the patient to completely lose the use of his dominant hand as a result. Thanks a lot Dr. Reid! Expect to be sued for malpractice!

Dr Reid is very knowledgeable and has a calming bedside manner. He answers all questions gives helpful information regarding what steps to take in your recovery. He evidences strong expertise in his specialty. He also shows great effort to comply with a patient’s scheduling needs.

Dr. Reid has performed surgery twice on my hands. There was no question of who I would choose to assess my current hand pain. Dr. Reid continues to be thorough in his explanation of the diagnosis and offering choices for treatment.

Dr Reid has been caring for my daughter's hand since a burn when she was 6. Now 12 he always talks with her and includes her in her plan for her hand. Very greatful for her full function of her hand.

Dr Reid is an accomplished surgeon, he knows what he is doing with a scalpel. What he doesn’t excel in is a kind bedside manner, the ability to give a gentle injection or to quote a competitive price. The last straw was after 2 years of treatments he insulted me as a patient and when called out, ignored me. I’m seeing Dr. Kollitz and I can’t recommend her enough. Make your own choice, but being a good surgeon is just not good enough anymore for me. Dr Reid is an accomplished surgeon, he knows what he is doing with a scalpel.

Dr. Reid was very professional, personable and able to diagnose my problem very quickly. He also explained in layman's terms both the problem and the fix.

Dr Reid was very clear about my diagnosis and treatment plan. I like his no-nonsense style and explanations. I felt confident he would take care of my condition

Dr. Reid is very straightforward about treatment options and letting you decide what you prefer.

I've known and been treated by Dr. Reid for close to 15 years. I have osteoarthritis in both hands and we initially injected orthovisc into my thumb joints to provide some cushioning and pain relief, I didn't want surgery yet. Helped for about 3 or so years, then we discussed the surgical intervention needed for longterm use of my thumbs/hands. Having a healthcare background, I research my providers. Dr Reid is by far and away the only hand surgeon I would want operating on my hands. Totally trust his skills and advice. Excellent surgeon. Communicates well and answers all of your questions and addresses expectations for surgical outcomes. Has operated on others I know as well, all good outcomes. Would not go elsewhere.

I was taken back right on time, and taken for x-rays quickly. The doctor followed up soon after that, and was quick and decisive with my diagnosis. I was happy with the practice and with Dr. Reid.

Looking forward to getting the pain and discomfort to stop. Dr. Reid is my 2nd orthopedic doctor I’ve seen for this issue and so far, he has a great command of how to get to the bottom of it. And he explains everything in an easy to understand fashion.

Dr. Reid is an exceptionally skilled surgeon. The rapport he has with his colleagues and surgical team creates a positive energy that seems to transfer to his patients wellbeing. You won’t find a more experienced or knowledgeable specialist.

This was the third time in 6 years that I have been to Dr Reid for trigger thumbs and trigger fingers. He was very friendly and helpful each visit and I will continue to seek out Dr Reid and Conerstone for all of my orthopedic related needs.

I saw Dr Reid for an osteoarthritis issue with my thumb /hand. After a review of my symptoms , X-rays and prior treatments he recommended surgery. From our discussion I feel comfortable and confident that I will have a successful outcome.

The number of forms required at checkin was overwhelming. Their online forms app was broken and no one offered to help with completing the pages and pages of paper work, despite my dominant arm being injured. Doctor himself seemed ok. Direct and to the point. The number of forms required at checkin was overwhelming.

World class expertise!

Dr Reid was very knowledgeable and helpful assessing my problem.

Felt confident that I was under professional hands. I won't hesitate to recommande Dr.James Reid.

I’ve gone through three surgeries with Dr. Reid. He is without a doubt profesional, responsible, and knowledge. Thank you for putting me back together!

Dr Reid fixed another surgeons mess with my simple mallet thumb from an accident. I heard Reid was the best and I should have listened! After my Revision and clean out infection I’m solid gold. FYI people Dr Reid isn’t warm and fuzzy, but highly skilled/intelligent people often aren’t... get over it. If your a whiner don’t go here. Reid doesn’t want to hear aches and pains and problem you caused yourself from a high BMI or sedentary life style. If something’s truly wrong, you got injured, etc. he will fix you up!

I had surgery on my right hand with Dr. Reid 7 years ago. When I recently needed surgery on my left hand there was zero question about what doctor to use. Dr. Reid is patient, communicative, thorough, and just plain good at what he does. I wouldn't hesitate to see him again.

Dr. Reid is truly incredible. I feel very fortunate to have been connected with him as he has provided a higher level of subject matter expertise to treating my injuries than I could find anywhere in the country. He is very present and diligent and I’ve left every interaction with him more informed and confident than I am used to expecting in the typical fast paced service of modern medicine. Dr. Reid has performed two surgeries for me after two separate accidents over 3 years and has vastly exceeded my expectations every step of the way. Dr. Reid is truly incredible.

Very good doctor, great staff, immediate surgery. Flat Irons Surgery Center also had a wonderful. (Needed stronger pain relief first night is my only concern. Hopeful to have that addressed tonight or morning

This was another visit to check on the progress of the surgery on my fingers that Dr. Reid performed in February. Dr. Reid is a compassionate and welcoming doctor who has looked after me for many years. I would recommend him to anyone who has a problem with their hands

Respectfully treated from entering office to leaving. Thorough discussion and exam including X-rays. Quick scheduling for procedure required plus Dr Reid’s commitment to support and resolve post issues should they arise Repeat patient of major surgery Thanks

Very trustworthy

He was a hack. Tried to cover up a surgery by not showing me ex rays. Mr Reid. What you are doing to people has not gone un noted. What if everyone who you messed up made you live with what you did to them? Think about it that each sleep. I sure have not forgotten you.

Dr. Reed put me at ease immediately. He shared his knowledge and I felt very confident about following through with my procedure. I also liked his sense of humor. I would highly recommend him.

My visit went very well. I was informed what the problem was on my hand and what procedure would be necessary to fix the problem. The office staff was wonderful and very professional. Dr. Reid was very patient snd explain everything that would be happening. Would highly recommend him.

No wait to be seen, but waiting g room was empty, except for 1 person. Dr. Reid was very focused on 1 issue, which was, 1 finger with very advanced arthritis. Yes, that was initial concern, becoming hard to function, but all fingers were progressing at the 1st joint very rapidly. I wanted to know what my choices were, if there were any options, on the overall picture. Surgery on the worst finger was only option given to me. He did not want to address 2 worst fingers, surgery at same time, since progression was happening so quickly. Just wanted to know, since 8 fingers were progressing quickly, this way, was I suppose to come in 8 times for surgery, if that's the only fix, for this problem or what was future outlook. I accepted his answer. Point is, I felt very clearly, my appt time was up, I didn't have time to talk any more, so I just stopped. If this is destiny for all 8 fingers, doesn't see right to pay 8 co-pays, for council on same probem.

I saw Dr. Reid for a consultation regarding a couple of issues with my wrist and elbow. I was impressed with how much time he spent answering my questions and explaining my options. He was very thorough and thoughtful.

I broke my wrist on a Saturday ans was unable for two days to access an x-ray at urgent care. My primary arranged my first available appointment next day with Dr Reid at a location some distance from where I live. I arrived a half hour early. The staff received me immediately and began x-rays. I left with a splint about the time of my appointment, that’s how efficient they were. Subsequent appointments were at a nearby location equally efficient. I elected a waterproof cast which worked as advertised. I was able to wash my hair and shower my body without any lasting sogginess within minutes afterwards. The cast and x-ray staff worked without any delay except for paper work. Doctor Reid explained everything to my satisfaction and allowed the cast to permit me to use thumb and forefinger together so I could dress myself. I really can’t imagine a better treatment experience.

I saw Dr. Reid on June 16 to perform needle aponeurotomy on my right hand for Dupuytrens contracture. He is very knowledgeable about Dupuytrens and the different therapies involved in treatment. I traveled from Lincoln, NE to see him. He was recommended by another patient that is a member of the Dupuytrens contracture group on FB. He was punctual, listened to and answered my questions, and I didn’t feel rushed. He will prescribe less invasive treatments if he feels that is the way to go. I felt comfortable with his expertise and knowledge and he didn’t have an ego. I will go to him again to get my left hand treated. The treatment went well and I am happy with the results.

Rude unhelpful staff. Made me very uncomfortable. Wouldn't let me schedule a time that worked for me, i had to fit into their schedule. Surgeon was brusk and didn't do a very good job on carpal tunnel syndrome. Very cold human. Would never recommend him or his pushy staff. Find someone else. You'd think i was coming to see the king or something royal. Ick. There's a reason for 2 1/2 stars! Rude unhelpful staff. Made me very uncomfortable.

Dr. Reid is a highly competent and knowledgable doctor. He did an amazing job with my surgery and was extremely attentive throughout the entire experience. Would highly recommend!

Wow!!! I have to say reading these bad comments disappoint me in the people them selves! I seen Dr. Reid and he did my surgery over 10 years ago! I’ve never felt better after seeing him and he is NOT what these people describe. First off I can say no one is perfect and if he didn’t remove all of the hamate or hammock or what ever the hell in the hand is! He didn’t do that on purpose! Getting off subject I once had a root cannel done and the dr never removed all the root causing excruciating pain over a Long weekend, but he did this in a hurry cause he was late to a lunch appointment he had mentioned! That don’t make him a horrible doctor it was horrible judgment on his part. I went back and he made things right AFTER I told him my concerns! So getting back, Dr Reid is a great caring dr and he always provided me with everything I needed to make sure I was comfortable and he never wanted for me to be in a uncomfortable situation. He even went out of his way “On his day off” to get me a prescription for pain after my surgery cause the staff was either closed or he was at another office and I couldn’t get it. So communicate with your doctors if theirs a problem don’t just write bad comments give them the chance to explain and you’ll find they aren’t as bad as you think. I’ve had a horrible dr once I mean horrible, but that’s a different comment!!!!! Wow!!! I have to say reading these bad comments disappoint me in the people them selves!

On time. Pleasant office staff. Knowledgeable and took the time to explain.

Dr. Reid explained my options both surgical and non-surgical. He took the time to explain the pros and cons of each as well. He made sure I was comfortable with my choice for surgery and he and his assistant got me scheduled within two weeks of my visit as I already had my EMG study done. Surgery day they were running behind, but things do happen in surgeries that aren’t necessarily planned, so I understood. Dr. Reid and the surgical team kept me informed of where they were at and when I would be next. Surgery felt short and well. I was able to go back to work within three days.

Dr. Reid is fantastic! He so clearly knows his stuff and cares about his patients. He advised against several expensive procedures in favor of a rational healing approach that not only healed my son quickly, but saved me a load of cash! He dropped everything to help when we threw a rush consent to play form at him, even though it threw off his daily schedule. That is not something most orthopedic surgeons would do. I will go back to him and advise all my friends to do the same!

Dr. Reid is great! He did a bone cyst removal in my wrist and he is wonderful. Explained everything to me so I knew everything that was going on with my wrist and what to expect from surgery and recovery. Highly recommend him.

I would give negative stars if I could. A very long story short: He recommended a hamate hook removal and ordered an MRI after already seeing one, he apparently forgot. I was apprehensive to let him operate after that but I had a lapse in judgement. I had the surgery. Fast forward a few years an my hand was worse than before. All compounded by a botched cortisone shot where Dr. Reid hit my ulnar nerve (confirmed by another doctor). I went to another hand specialist and an MRI and CT revealed that my hamate was not completely removed thus causing more pain than the original injury. The new Dr. finished the job and now my hand is back to normal. Dr. Reid did not even prescribe physical therapy after the surgery which I later learned was integral to my second surgery recovery and any surgery of this type. Pure negligence on many levels. I pursued legal action but I was passed the statute of limitations for such things. His staff is rude, inconsiderate and the customer service is horrible. I would give negative stars if I could.

It's all about the money with this office. You are incidental. There is little or no consideration to the patients needs and he has changed the time, date and hospital 4X at the last minute with me. I am disabled and have to set up rides that aren't always available, but i guess that's too bad for me. It's all about him, and his office manager is another pain .They are very willing to dump you if you say a wrong word. In other words your needs are also incidental. Never refer to him!!!

Dr Reid is a very caring doctor who took great care of my 6 now 7 year old. She had burnt her hand and I thought for sure she would need surgery. He stayed calm and encluded her in the conversation. He made sure he was doing the right thing for her little hand and nails. Her hand has completely healed with no loss of function. Would highly recommend him to anyone.

Rotator cuff repair in April 2016. I called the ofc that PM concerning my pain meds; I was still in pain. I discovered after having to drive myself to his office 6 hrs post-op in order to see his PA for an assessment of my pain that my call/situation was evaluated by a receptionist! My issue could have been resolved over the phone by a nurse or Dr. Reid, neither of which ever called me, the only option offered to me was to drive in. This style of office/post-op mgmt shows very poor judgement.

Misdiagnosed my bone infection.

He thought my emergency surgery at the ER was not going to be paying him for that I was born with ADS and he did not think I had Blue cross blue shield. My leg had to be worked on a second time taking out the screws that ended up being too big and cutting into me as well as my leg being reset so it was not as bent out from the side and I would be able to walk normal. The conflict between him and I started after I went back to the ER about a blood clot and his office never sent my ex-rays.

He always kept me waiting 30-45 mins, without an apology and spent little time really listening to my concerns; instead, he told bizarre stories about himself and criticized my choices of other doctors I used. He never took the time to fully explore why I was not healing well and never showed any concern or compassion. I was never addressed by name and it was clear that I was only a # to him. My new MD, examined my hand , took an xray and found why I was not healing. Dr. Reid never had time.
