Omg! Dr. Christopher Combs and his entire staff is awesome, I haven’t seen this kinda professional service in so many years thank you 🙏🏽 I had knee surgery 9/7/2022 and the doctor took good care of me he explained everything detail about my surgery and what to expect after words and always asked if I had any concerns or questions and his entire staff did there part from making sure my meds were sent to the pharmacy explaining everything to me also taking care of my disability and job paperwork. I wish it were more doctors and staff like them.

I just saw Dr.Combs first time today. It's a Monday and during Covid19, so it was a bit busy in the office. I had to wait for about 45 minutes to see him. He explained everything to me, my current prognosis, my options, surgical and non surgical treatments. He does Not prescribe pain medications as it was my first time there. I will be calling my primary doctor today. He didn't treat me as an assembly line patient which is nice. Will post more once I have the surgery.

Dr. Combs is very informative and friendly. Made me feel like I was actually being listened to and would definitely go back if needed.

Dr. Combs is great. He is knowledgeable and answers questions thoroughly. The office staff needs work, definitely not the best customer service and not always polite. I will update in 2 months after my hip replacement surgery.

I've always had a very difficult time trying to set an appointment. A year later when I need to make an appointment I get the same excuse. Your primary needs to send the referral. I did that and they said they did not receive it. But gone through this before in the past with this doctor's office and frankly I'm fed up. Dr Combs is great but his office staff sucks big time. If I ever get to see doctor comes again I'm going to tell him how bad his staff is. The lady that answer the phone had a really bad attitude.

A little more understanding

A treatment decision can involve a physician, a therapist, an imaging center, and people helping you at home. Coordination becomes easier to understand when you know who does what, how information moves, and whom to contact when something changes. Start with these five questions before the next stage of care.
