UNC OrthoNow is recognized for its knowledgeable and caring staff, particularly Dr. Kamath and PA Nicole Lane. Patients appreciate Dr. Kamath's thorough approach, especially for those with complex conditions like Ehlers-Danlos Syndrome (EDS). He is noted for his careful consideration during surgeries, such as the bilateral MPFL reconstruction, where he pays close attention to detail, ensuring minimal scarring and stability for patients. His understanding of EDS and its implications in treatment options gives patients confidence in their care.
PA Nicole Lane is also highly regarded for her empathetic and thoughtful approach. Her comprehensive exams and treatment plans make patients feel safe and understood. However, some feedback suggests that not all staff members are as knowledgeable about EDS, as seen with another PA who recommended steroid injections, which may not be suitable for EDS patients. Overall, UNC OrthoNow is seen as a reliable place for orthopedic care, with a strong emphasis on patient safety and thoroughness in treatment decisions. Despite some minor criticisms, the overall experience is positive, with recommendations for the practice and its attentive providers.
So far, we're very impressed with UNC Orthopedic. Latoya at the front desk, is both compassionate and competent, a rare mix in today's health care environment. She took on a task that wasn't hers and when she couldn't reach who she needed, she went looking for them. She's a treasure! The clinic manager was also very kind and helpful and Dr Kamath is both personable and thorough. He has a reputation for being a highly skilled surgeon. By the time we saw him, 3 days after an ER visit, he'd already tracked down the manufacturer of the artificial joint that broke, reached out to the rep, and presented a thorough plan that included multiple contingencies. We are grateful to… read full review
Very nice, modern facility with great staff. Walked in yesterday morning and was seen immediately. The tech and Dr. Bush were phenomenal and took my concerns seriously, giving me an answer about pain I’ve dealt with for years but had recently become unbearable. I had X-rays taken, a diagnosis confirmed, treatment plan laid out, and consultation scheduled all within the hour. I would highly recommend this clinic!
Dereck is great. I come here for post op PT from a rotator cuff repair surgery and Derek is very knowledgeable and caring. I will recommend him for post op PT to friends who unfortunately need surgery.
