3 year follow up to my earlier review of Dr. Blackman. My original review was listed as "Town & Country, MO – Dec 18, 2018" Dr. Blackman did rotator cuff surgery on me when I was 70 years old and one of my rotator cuff tendons had a complete tear. It has been three years and the arm that had surgery is fully functional and better than the arm that didn't have surgery.

Outstanding Surgeon! He Spent all the time you needed both before the rotator cuff and and after the surgery by telling you what to expect and what he was planning on doing. Explained everything and he never looked like he was rushed to leave you. Plus his surgery must have been good, as I progressed well ahead of schedule.

I fell in a parking lot and assumed I had broken my arm since I could not raise it above my waist. Was able to see the doctor's physician assistant that same day (I was not a previous patient) and X-rays were taken in the office. That evening an MRI was taken that showed I needed surgery for a torn rotator cuff. One week later surgery was performed. Now 12 weeks after surgery everything seems back to normal and I am working on regaining full strength in that arm.

I have been trying for nearly a week to get the doctor to call me back with my MRI results but no one in the office ever calls. I keep calling them and each time I’m told that the doctor is with a patient and they will give him a message to call me. Still waiting.

Almost 2 years after shoulder surgery and then revision surgery a few months later I am still in quite a lot of pain, cannot lie on my shoulder and limited range of motion. Obviously my first review was premature & not based on my recovery progress—just initial impressiion. During my my last 3 follow up visits I always heard the same “we tried physical therapy and this is the maximum medical improvement you will have. I feel like he gave up on me.

Dr Blackman is great! From the time we started with him for my daughters issues(past and present) he was very nice , easy to talk to, very friendly. He understood what we were looking for and gave us options for treatment. He explains things very well and takes time with you. Would recommend him to anyone ! His staff is very nice as well.

Dr. Blackman's office staff is really friendly and helpful. I primarily worked with Robin and Ryan, both excellent members of the staff. The office is very clean with good lighting. The only downside is that I have only seen the doctor on my initial visit, after my surgery I have worked with his second in command. It would have been nice to visit with him directly post-op. Outside of this, I've been pretty satisfied with the staff; they return FMLA papers in a timely manner & are very responsive

I have just seen Dr. Blackman twice for "rooster" shots in my knee but have been very impressed with him. He is easy to talk to, takes time to answer questions & is very professional as well as personable. The office staff is very friendly and courteous as well. I would highly recommend him.
