2 Weeks Post Op ~ 2nd Fusion w/Dr Ellison who cleaned up & added additional levels following the trauma of an auto accident . This could easily be a novel ~ but being limited to 500 words won't do a great surgeon justice. Dr Scott Ellison is truly worth taking time to write about. When making my initial decision, I found Dr Ellison to be the surgeon that other medical professionals chose ~ which speaks volumes. He's extremely passionate about what he does ~ an expert in his field. Easy Choice!
I saw Dr. Ellison and found him very dismissive of my condition and concerns. He basically took no X-Rays and only questioned me about my concerns, no real examination. When I called back to question why no x-rays were ordered, I was told he did this normally and would reevaluate at follow-up appointment. I found it very odd, that no X-Ray at minimum were ordered? I went to another Orthopedic Dr. and was extensively examined and X-ray's/MRI Ordered. Found disk abnormalities. Injections working!
About two years ago Dr. Ellison preformed a spinal decompression on my L4 and L5 and spinal fission. About 5 to 6 months later I had reoccurring back pain. He said and I quote " I do not chase back pain. He sent me to the Pain Clinic. 12 months of treatment the pain kept getting worse. I went to another DR. who will shake your hand. Found that I have a herniated disc. Worse Doctor I ever had. Wait time in waiting over an hour plus 30 to 40 wait time in exam room.
Rudest physician I have ever had the displeasure of meeting. Judgmental and very prejudice. This "doctor" was more concerned with dishing out unneeded, unwanted and completely irrelevant 'shame on you' advice than even discussing the reason we were in his office. Refused to discuss the herniated disc....completely! So I would just like to say....It's not your job to figure out the storm God has ask someone to walk through. You are no where close to being worthy enough of those shoes.
Rudest Doctor we have ever met! Super huge Ego. Staff IS GREAT! He interrupts/doesn't let you speak. Said other doctors think they are God. He needs to look in the mirror. Totally UNHELPFUL! Zero compassion. Didn't perform a thorough neurology test as we found out after going to the SE Spine Institute. He missed a simple "toe test" that could have saved weeks of agony. Would not prescribe PAIN meds. Did not explain MRI at all! Wouldn't do surgery. SE Spine said surgery was only option. HORRIBLE!
20 years of misdiagnosed back pain. Dr. Ellison not only correctly diagnosed the issue but performed the surgery to completely relieve the back pain. Home run out of the park!
