Review & Rating
Dr. Choudhry is terrific. I broke my wrist in Switzerland, had surgery there, and Dr. Choudhry took over my care after I got home. He removed the plate and screws and helped me regain mobility. I highly recommend Dr. Choudhry.
I had arthroscopic surgery on my knee with Dr. Parker and later a total joint replacement of my knee by Dr. Larkin. Both docs were very approachable and willing to discuss any questions or concerns. Also, the scheduling seems to generally be well planned, as I never had to wait very long for my appointment, and I was allowed the time to discuss any issues with the docs.
Dr. Imran Choudhry MD at Orthopedic Associates operated on the fractured humerus on my right arm and put a plate in. I am back to 110%. As my primary physician and my PT says Orthopedic Associates are the best in town. I would never go anywhere else. Dr. Imran Choudhry MD is an excellent surgeon and a nice guy. Thanks so much Dr. Imran Choudhry MD for putting me back together!!!!!
I received poor care at Orthopedic associates. After waiting 1 hour in the waiting room I was examined by a doctors assistant who provided the wrong diagnosis. The doctor spent 5 minutes with me to check the assistants work and did not catch the real issue I was having. There are better providers in Denver. I would steer clear of these guys.
My surgeon was a 5 star doctor. I reviewed him separately. Office takes a while to send in disability paperwork, but that is expected.
Saw Dr Choudhry for a broken hand/wrist. Front office is a bit rude and can tell they don't really care about customer. Short wait time to see doctor, especially considering a specialty practice. Dr Choudhry was kind and professional. My condition was not complicated and very little discussion was needed. I was fitted with a splint by Jasmine. She was sweet and helpful in instructing me on the splint. So from a care perspective, my treatment was good. The problem came in with the splint. I fell a couple days later and the splint wire broke. I thought maybe they could send back under warranty or something but since I fell, it was my fault. I understand that. So I began looking online. I found the same exact splint from the same company they use to purchase the splint for $96. They billed the splint to my insurance and then I pay my deductible which means that I will pay for the splint in total. They billed the insurance $400. After deductions per the contracting, it would be about $350 that I would owe. They collected $175 up front from me and I am waiting for the bill for the remainder. I asked if I could buy the exact same new splint and give it back to them unused for a refund. Nope!! So here I sit with a broken splint, broken hand, and waiting for the bill for the remainder of what I owe for the splint they marked up 4x what they paid for it. Perhaps this is what is wrong with health care!!! A piece of advice; If you need durable medical equipment you should see what you can get it for online and not pay for it at the doctor's office.
Dr. Imran Choudhry MD at Orthopedic Associates performed surgery on my ripped arm tendon (tennis elbow gone bad). He has been great from the start; tying a cortisone shot and PRP injections first before advising surgery. I am currently in PT hoping to return tot he squash courts in a couple more months. I found Dr. Choudhry to be an excellent surgeon and a nice guy. The entire team who helped me on surgery day where great, nice, caring, professional. I'd totally recommend this practice to anyone.
I have never been here. I have never called here. I don't know anyone who has. However, for the past year I have been receiving appointment reminders for at least 5 different people. You should know that your calls from this office are going to complete strangers. I have let them know each time that they're calling the wrong person and yet, the calls persist. Today when I called them the receptionist hung up on me. FOUR TIMES! Rude people.
Broke my hand bone, I finished my initial prescription of pain pills I was supplementing ibuprofen with for a week at night so the pain wouldn't wake me. When i tried to tell the doctor and PA they seemed to be in a hurry and just talked fast and dismissively when I tried to tell them my wrist was also hurting but he cut me off and said "well as long as there's no pain it's ok " did he even listen? No. Then I asked the doctor for 5 more pills for the next week because I was sure by that time the pain should subside enough to not wake me sometimes at night, but the doctor said that they have to be careful "who they prescribe to". Dude my hand is broken and you guys just put a brace on that squeezes the bone into place and i'm asking for 5 Vicodin, or even anything non-narcotic that can be a little bit stronger for the night. If I really wanted to be a druggie I would be buying off the street, but thanks for making me feel like i'm not the type of person who it would be safe for him to prescribe 5 pills to. Also I got there at 3:10 and I was there until about 5pm only saw the doc for about 5 minutes. The only cool and nice one there was the nurse who put my brace on me and the x-ray tech because front desk also were kind of snobby. Also be careful if you write a bad review of this place because they will cancel all your future appointments. Talk about professionalism! Petty.
I came to Orthopedic Associates and met Dr. Parker after experiencing serious issues following ACL reconstructive surgery from a different office. I had a number of issues including the start of patella baja, a tear in my pateller tendon and severe scar tissue. Dr. Parker definitely had his work cut out for him. He is the whole enchilada: 5/5 bedside manner and an exceptional surgeon. He is backed by an amazing assistant named Taryn Godinez. She is the epitome of excellent customer service and it is obvious what a great relationship and tight communication she has within the office and also with Dr. Parker.
Terrible customer service. Terrible System in place for new patients. Your system is confusing, the fact that I got transferred 4x and then on 4th time, I said I was a little confused and was trying to get the person caught up with my situation (which was literally JUST to make an appointment with physical therapist for back pain). And with so much attitude the woman asked "so what body part do you need help with" Don't be mad at me for not being able to make a simple appointment. To the doctors who may be well qualified, you need to reconsider the system you have in place and arguably the people you have working for you. Geeze. I will never know if the ACTUAL service provided is good. (I tried two different days to make appointments, let the record show). Luckily there are other physical therapists in Denver.
I liked Dr. Vidal, who did a complicated surgery, and tried her best to help and give sound advise. She should be aware that thyroid problems & Vitamin D affect tendon/muscle stiffness and corticosteroids and NSAIDS are not helpful! (ICE, ICE, ICE!) I didn't need that tendon release after all, which you found during your exploration! I did not like Sara Meadows approach. Leslie Vidal, M.D. is friendly, and positive.
