Dr DuShey was fantastic. He took time to explain everything to me-- how the knee joint works, what might be my problem, what my tests showed, and even how I would be billed by insurance. He really seemed to care and it was so refreshing after seeing doctors who just go through the motions and only spend a few minutes with you. He was thoughtful and knowledgeable, highly recommended.

He is a very knowledgeable orthopedic, who takes the time to discuss the issue, treatment options and prognosis with his patients. I came to the appointment with many questions and Dr. DuShey answered them thoroughly and clearly. Instilled confidence and immediate made me feel better.

I saw Dr. DuShey about a shoulder strain that's taking a while to heal. He took me through a range of motions, had me get an X-ray, then explained to me his diagnosis and the rationale behind it.
One thing that I particularly appreciated was his attitude of receptiveness and transparency - he laid out three potential avenues of treatment, told me which one he recommended and why, but said that if anything felt abnormal, we could go ahead and evaluate the other options. It really made me feel like I had a say in my own recovery.

March 20, 2019Heather H.Verified patient
Dr. DuShey is, in today's world, exceptional for his willingness to give the patient all the time needed. He listens well, explains well, shows warmth, kindness, and caring. Just what a physician should be—but so often, today, they are not of this character. I like him and I trust him.
March 1, 2019David L.Verified patient
Dr. DuShey was smart, friendly and respectful. He kept apologizing for the wait time in getting my xray results, but it really wasn't that long. The offices were nice. The staff was pleasant and helpful.
February 19, 2019Barbara L.Verified patient
I love my Dr. He is kind ,and caring.
But I think he is just overbooked in the office. I waited an hour after my appointment to get into a room and then a half hour to see the Dr.

this is the second time I’ve seen Dr. DuShey and I am even more confident in him as a doctor. He got a second opinion on my films on the spot so that I could feel that I was fully informed.
