Dr. Maxwell has helped me with complex shoulder issues and he's a top doc, for sure. Highly recommend him.

Dr. Maxwell and his practitioner nurse, Jackie are always friendly, welcoming and kind. They both are eager to listen and help. Each time I go to Dr. Maxwell, I know I’ll be taken care to up most. Dr. Maxwell never rushes me to move onto the next patient. I always feel all of my questions are answered and leave their office with an ease of mind.

Great doctor. Wonderful professionalism. Very attentive to the patient's situation and feelings. You, definitely, will not be disappointed!
August 19, 2020Everette B.Verified patient
I saw Dr. Maxwell for a nerve related injury and needed to do a follow up. He and his practice are superb. He is extremely patient, asks lots of clarifying questions to make sure he fully understands the issue at hand and I really felt cared for in a way you seldom do in doctors offices these days.
He gave me information and recommendations that will continue to help me and put me at ease. He is appropriately conservative in his approach, which I value.
I can’t recommend him more highly to those who are managing pain.

January 7, 2019Thomas S.Verified patient
Dr. Maxwell is thorough, knowledgeable and patient. He spent more than 30 min with me during my initial appointment, listening to all my complaints. His examination was methodical and his explanation of therapy options clear and on point. Highly recommended!
November 13, 2018Tanja D.Verified patient
I am awed at the amount of time and information Drs. Maxwell and Aida provided at each of my two visits. Examinations were more thorough than any orthopedist had ever performed and both doctors thought holistically rather than being quick to say where my pain originated from without considering all evidence. Dr. Maxwell explained my MRI findings, showed me what he saw, and described possible treatments. He agreed with my decision to try the least invasive first: physical therapy. He explained what pt would focus on and how it might help. I left with a clear sense of what a cortisone shot or nerve block would entail, and how long related pain relief might last. I felt listened to, educated, and respected as well as well cared for. I heartily recommend Dr. Maxwell.
More than 1 year agoJoan G.Verified patient
Dr. Maxwell is very personable and informed. He changes my treatment based on what is going on with me now instead of just going along and not rechecking. He's on top of it when something happens outside the office. Very confident in his care and treatment. 5 Stars.

From the reception desk to the treatment room all encounters were pleasant and extremely courteous. My check-in was fast and simple. My wait time in the reception area was less than 20 minutes. I was surprised that the office is configured in a way that multiple visits were eliminated in that I was able to get xrays taken and reviewed, and treated...
Highly recommended and reflects favorable on MedStar....

First appointment with Dr. Maxwell -- would not hesitate to come back. He is very thorough, takes his time, and makes the effort to explain everything to the patient/ensure you don't have further questions. Other physicians should learn from his example. Would recommend him in a heartbeat.

He actually listened to me. Looked through my MRIs (I brought 2) and was very helpful in actually pinpointing what the problem was. I highly recommend him.

They changed front desk staff and the service has fallen dramatically the person I spoke with on the phone was rude and not very helpful. They do not respond in a reasonable manner to requests and questions after you leave the office

Excellent physician! I highly recommend. The wait time was long due to an accident on the beltway that backed up the whole office.

I made my appointment through zocdoc, I got a confirmation email and everything, when i arrived they didn't know who I was nor did they have my apt scheduled. They didn't try to accommodate me although I showed them the confirmation email. They just said they were having some technical issues.
i drove an hour to get there, so this was really disappointing.
Never again!
