Verified patient
My visit was fine in the end and my issues were addressed. However, I had written a message to the Dr. and staff regarding the purpose of my visit and that was not read prior to my visit. Why bother?
Verified patient
Dr. Rees is a highly educated, experienced, and professionally skilled orthopedic. He has always shown attentiveness and a willingness to discuss medical issues and/or answer any questions or concerns you may have. I have never felt "rushed" nor judged, and have always felt respected by him as well as comfortable with him. My surgeries have gone very well, and better than expected. I feel very fortunate to have Dr. Rees as my orthopedic surgeon. Beyond his knowledge & skills, he also has compassion and there is a "truly sincere genuineness" and "evenness" about him. *Best of all, everything i'm already saying about him, has remained consistently true through the years I have needed him and known him. I do appreciate and respect that consistency that i can count on with him! Having been a patient at Loyola for 20 years, I can actually say that Dr. Rees is an exceptional physician and surgeon. I adore him!
it could not be better
I have been seeing Dr. Rees for several years due to hip arthritis. Four months ago Dr. Rees replaced my hip with an anterior approach. I was only in the hospital two days, and back to work fulltime in six weeks! In addition to excellent surgical skills, Dr. Rees is kind, thoughtful and a good listener. I recommend him highly. Thank you Dr. Rees!
Office staff was very nice. Dr. Rees explained everything very well and answered all my questions. Very nice and compassionate doctor.
I will be seeing him on May 22 for a shot. He is wonderful and enables me to do the walking that I need to maintain my work and travel to it. I am very grateful for his skill and ability to provide this important preservation of my knee.
Dr. Rees always took the time to answer any of the questions I had and explained them in such a way that I could easily understand his answers.
Staff and doctor very pleasant .
