We used Dr. Douthit with our children while they were growing up and now we drive from Blue Ridge, TX to Frisco, TX and use him for our grand children. He directs the questions to the patient instead of talking to the parent. He is just an overall awesome doctor and knows what he’s doing. Best in Orthopedic and Sports Medicine.

Excellent orthopedic physician, very thorough with excellent bedside manner. Listens and answers questions without hesitation. Shows genuine concern for all patients.
Verified patient
Dr. Douthit was outstanding. He did for me what another Dr. wouldn't do, which was to provide immediate relief of a swollen knee. As far as bedside manner, Dr. Douthit knocked it out the park. While he was seeing me, he had one of his PAs apologize to the folks in the lobby for running behind and offered them a reschedule. Never seen another Dr. do that before. I highly recommend Dr. Douthit. He and his staff are on point.
Verified patient
Dr Douthit is an incredible doctor and human being. He is a true professional and expert in his field and beyond. I highly recommend Dr Douthit for any orthopedic need.
Verified patient
Very thorough and kind.
Verified patient
Diagnosed my injury and explained what the problem was and the treatment. Answered all my questions. Was very professional.
Verified patient
After listening to the symptoms, he prescribed for immediate xrays. Following the xrays, clearly explained what he could see and continued to test movements to verify his findings. Explained everything clearly and provided a prescription and recommendations for PT.
Verified patient
If you haven’t been to Dr Douthit before, you may misinterpret his approach. I find him extremely knowledgeable, competent, in quick to make accurate assessments. He is very direct and runs a busy practice. Others may misinterpret as impersonal or less bedside manner, but I disagree and feel he is extremely knowledgeable, professional but may lack some of the soft side. When I see him, not looking to get a beer and hang out with a friend, but look for expert insight and advice. He has never disappointed.
Verified patient
Of all the doctors I see, I find Dr Douthit to be the most seasoned and a true patient caring doctor. He is the only doctor who showed interest in discussing my case with my other doctors and to come up with a conclusive plan. He is just amazing !!
Verified patient
I appreciate Dr. Douthit. He shows you the x-rays, takes time to explain what he is seeing, offers treatment options (if applicable/available) and gives you the opportunity to be part of the decision for treatment.
Verified patient
I scheduled an appointment for 10 AM thru your site. I Received an email to call the office. I called and explained I had hurt my left knee playing golf. I was told that their were no “Medicare Appointments” available for 6 days. I explained my PCP had recommended this MD and he had seen my wife several times in the past. I called Plano Ortho and Because I was hurt they were able to see me immediately. He really does have a great reputation in this area but I was disappointed in my results!
Verified patient
I felt immediately that I was where I needed to be. Dr. Douthit and his staff are extremely professional and knowledgeable. I can say that Dr. Douthit came highly recommended by not just one but several people. I will definitely be recommending Dr. Douthit to friends and family.
Verified patient
I was really taken care of. He got me in as soon as he could and he was very informative. He and his staff were eager to answer all my questions.

So impressed with the amount of time Dr. Douthit spent with me to ensure I understood my diagnosis and the next steps toward recovery. Very thorough and genuinely concerned about my concerns and well being. Highly recommend!
Verified patient
Dr. BRUCE is the most kind and patient doctor that I have come across.He takes full time to listen to your problems and answers thm until you are fully satisfied. I highly recommend Dr. Bruce. Thanks
Great attention and care was taken in when evaluating me. Doctor and staff were attentive and very helpful in helping me get better and evaluating everything that I currently have. Will definitely go back, since this practice seems to look for non-invasive options first, and fixing problems at their root before suggesting something as big as surgery.
I haven't seen Dr. Douthit in over 5 years and they made me feel like I was just there last week. Very professional staff and the doctors take their time with each patient until they have answered all of your questions.
Verified patient
Was very good, was interested in all comments and very thorough in questions and exam and was able to give us a lot more information on his injury and detailed out all the options and what to expect so we can make the right decision.
Very professional dr and polite. Appointment was very thorough for my problem. Practically no waiting time. Got an appt the next day with no problem. He offered me choices, and considered my feedback for which treatments I wanted to start with. Did xrays on site. Office was easy to find, and parking was close. Entire staff was friendly. I was very nervous, and they put me at ease. My only negative was there is a lot of paperwork, and then they call you to a room and re-ask you the exact same questions. Five stars other than that! I will see him again.
Verified patient
Saw the PA first and she was great, spotted an old injury right away and Dr Douthit came in and did a thorough exam. He is very professional and friendly at the same time.
Verified patient
Wait time was too long
I've been in the medical/insurance industry for quite some time so I have a habit of critically evaluating everything. With that said, Dr. Douthit was very charismatic and genuinely concerned for my son. Gave me the low and high options of care which I truly appreciate. Plus he came highly recommend.
Verified patient
Dr Douthit is very knowledgeable and spends time and make you understand the problem and how it will be treated. Highly recommend this Dr. for his best efforts.
Verified patient
He was not very personable and was unwilling to take my injury seriously. I would not recommend him and I will not be seeing him again.
Great experience with Dr. Douhit. He's very knowledgeable, honest, and thorough. He assesses, diagnoses and provides a treatment plan on your first visit. Plus, he doesn't request you to "come back for a follow up" but rather offers to see you if your treatment doesn't go as expected. Great bedside manner. Personable. Experienced. Honest. These qualities are becoming increasingly rare. Go see Dr. Douhit and see for yourself.
Verified patient
He was very professional, thorough and nice
