“Received multiple treatment options. I was not pressured to make a decision that day and it was suggested that I research the options online. I had not heard of some of the options. The gel that was recommended for me helped alleviate some of the pain as soon as I used it. ”

Verified patient
Fabulous personal professional doctor and staff
Verified patient
They need more front desk staff or a better system. People who have an appointment wait in the same line. I arrived 20 minutes before appointment and had to stand in line for 25 minutes. Then I had to wait 45 minutes for my appointment! Even though I have all my information on file, am already a regular patient of Dr. Jones, and had already echecked in, the desk person asked for all my information again. I really do not feel comfortable with this person sitting there for 15 minutes looking into my personal information and records. Loyola really needs to improve their system. Even though I eventually learned they were short staffed from an emergency, this is a regular and standard way this office runs. Person waiting in line before me had no appointment was with the desk person for 55 minutes! There was a mother who had an obviously sick child in line, and those with appointments went before her. She was in line for 40 minutes and was ignored. She had to ask for help! Shame on staff!
Verified patient
Dr. Jones listened well, was patient with this patient, and seemed to really care. He was kind and friendly. He provided a good action plan and next steps, and thoughtfully and clearly explained everything to me. He was great! The office staff (especially both the front desk associates) were also very nice and helpful, as was the X-ray technician. It's an efficient operation (I remarked in the office that it was a "well-oiled machine"!). Thanks to the whole team!
Verified patient
Dr Jones is young enough to know the latest treatment and old enough to have experience. Great bedside manner- listens well and explained everything to the intern also.
Verified patient
Dr Jones is absolutely the best. Great listener, communicator, and most caring, empathetic doctor I’ve come across. Cares and treats me as a whole person and athlete
Dr. Jones was very friendly and knowledgeable. I did not expect to get an injection on my first visit but he was prepared to do it until he found out I was getting a Covid shot that afternoon. He explained that the research indicates the steroid injection would interfere with the Covid shot and it was more important for me to get the shot. He said come back two weeks after you had your second shot and we'll do it. I was really glad he was aware of the interaction between the two and asked about it. I will be going back to see him again.
Verified patient
The staff was efficient and friendly. The office was clean and set up properly for covid19. The doctor took me right away. I was in and out in less than an hour.
