I always find the staff to be professional and friendly. Dr. Patterson is genuinely concerned about providing the best possible options, and presents these options so that the patient can understand. I feel that Dr. Patterson and his staff are trustworthy for assessment, treatments, and referrals, when best for the patient.

Dr Patterson and his staff are awesome folks. Very helpful and concerned about your ailments. Highly recommend him to anyone with bone and joint problems. Outstanding doctor and staff!!
Verified patient
Good appointment. Dr wasn’t super friendly or informative and seems stumped actually. Also he called with results and we missed him and called back and it took a whole weekend to hear back.
Great bedside manner. He's very matter a fact
Very timely and professional .
When I scheduled my appointment via zocdoc, I knew exactly what I needed! Consultation was not in the cards for me, I needed some relief. So I gave him a snippet of my journey with this off and on pain and all the doctors I've seen. Nothing has helped. This was my last result! Joint injection, ouch! Oh so worthy! It definitely pays to work in the medical field! Thanks Dr. Patterson for everything!
Verified patient
Very good always explains so that I understand.
Nice office staff. Clean and nice waiting room. Waited for about an hour but Dr. Patterson was very professional and answered questions. Will definitely continue to use for current shoulder pain.
Verified patient
Dr. Patterson was very generous with his time, answering all of my questions and explaining the situation. You can tell he is an expert with a lot of experience by the way he explains things. I highly respect that he referred me to a specialist with more advanced knowledge of my specific injury, and he promised his office would see to it that I get an appointment in a timely manner. I would confidently recommend Dr. Patterson to anyone.
Verified patient

Dr. Patterson and his staff were professional and personable. While the wait on the front end was a little long, once I was in the room there was very little wait. I also appreciate that I was not rushed and he took as much time as needed to resolve my issue. Well done!
