I really enjoyed my trip to the orthopedic. Dr. Brooks was the best ever. I was very afraid when I went in there, but the nurse made me feel very comfortable and assured me that I wouldn't feel any pain. When Dr. Brooks came in and did his procedure, I felt no pain. So yes, I would definitely, most definitely, recommend each and every person that I know that need an orthopedic to come to Dr. Brooks. Have a blessed day.

Everyone at Dr. Brooks' office was kind and respectful and patient. The only problem was that Dr. Brooks told me I would not have to come back for another - and pay for another visit prior to letting them know I want surgery, and the outer office staff said, no, you have to come back and have another appointment. That was the only problem, and that is a problem because it cost me a chunk of change every time I walked in that office. That's all.

Yes, I feel like for knee replacement surgery, there should be some type of workshop held. I don't think that enough information is given to patients to let them know what exactly their experience is going to be, the pain levels they're going to experience, and how mentally challenging it's going to be with knee replacement, as well as how much sleep you're going to lose, which also causes dysfunction. I do think that some other forms of a lot more information can be given to patients before they choose to have knee replacement surgery.
