Dr. Douglas and his assistant were very courteous and amazing. Definitely made me feel warm despite the rough news of having acl surgery. 10/10 would recommend them.
April 20, 2023Tyrus M.Verified patient
This office is a mess. They ran super behind, and despite asking for my back to be looked at, I ended up waiting an hour for hip x-rays just to be told my hips are fine and he's "not a back guy".
Complete waste of time and money.
June 22, 2022Emily G.Verified patient
The address of this place is different for the address provided by Zocdoc. I had to walk for like 10 mins to go to outpatient center.

Dr. Evans was through and informative. He explained my condition and possible treatment options. He will be doing my knee surgery in the near future.
October 11, 2020Gerald S.Verified patient
He didn’t remember what I originally saw him for. I wanted info on my knee as well as my hip and he didn’t have much to say about my knee and didn’t remember that is what I had seen him for too.

I see Dr. Evans for arthritis in my knees. Usually he will have a medical student with him. I am always struck by his ability to listen and explain what is happening to me and for the benefit of the student. It’s one thing to be a great doctor; but ensuring the next generation is as highly skilled and empathetic as he is makes him a standout to me.

I thought he was very good. He read all the paper work before hand and knew the problem. Very professional and made things very clear to understand. One two three he came up with a game plan. 10 out of 10

Excellent Doctor and staff.
More than 1 year agoMH
I cannot say enough wonderful things about Dr. Evans. He is very kind, personable and humorous which, from my experience, is very hard to find in a specialist. He took his time explaining my condition and I never felt pushed to have surgery, as Dr. Evans laid out other options for me. His entire staff is very knowledgeable and friendly as well. If I ever need an orthopedic surgeon in the future, I will go back to see him.

Prompt, I went in on my lunch hour 3 different times and although I warned my coworkers I may be late, I always made it back before I intended. Great Dr, great staff! Glad I made the decision to switch and go out of network.
More than 1 year agoMD
Dr. Evans is a wonderful doctor! He's compassionate, honest, extremely attentive and no problem is too small to see him. He's an excellent surgeon, with a great success rate. And his whole staff is a delight to work with, overall he has a great team. I've been his patient for a few years now, and I wouldn't go anywhere else.
