Your trust is our top concern.

We strive to keep reviews honest, trustworthy, and fair.

Doctors can not pay for good reviews, nor can they pay to have negative reviews removed.

We monitor all reviews to ensure they comply with our guidelines and don’t include personal information, profanity, libel, defamation, harassment, obscenity or fraud.

Any reviews that are deemed fraudulent or violate our guidelines will be removed immediately.

All reviews are confirmed and audited before publication, and community members have the ability to flag inappropriate content for further review by our team.

Stay away!
If you are a Medicare only patient do NOT go to this doctor. I saw dr sorce for a shoulder injury and went through 8 weeks of physical therapy to the tune of 100.00 a week. Then they did my mri to see all the damage. Let me schedule my surgery to the point of signing documents and setting a date. I get a phone call one WEEK prior to my surgery telling me I have to prepay my 20% coinsurance. They will not take payments or work with you whatsoever. Then lied to me saying they tried to call me 3 weeks ago and I wasn’t taking calls lol. My phone is always on and I have voicemail and caller id. They never attempted to call me at all nor leave a message. Now I have to start the process all over again with a new doctor. They also never did anything for my pain. You tell me what person out there that only has disability for income can cough up 800.00 in a week.

I would leave zero stars if I could.
Since Dr. SORCE performed what was called a 'minor surgery' I have had so much pain that I now have to have a total knee replacement. This knee was not in bad condition before he touched it Since he worked on me I have been in excruciating pain for months. I regret using this doctor. He just wants the money and pushes extra xrays and other procedures not needed so then the insurance doesn't pay but you end up owing him the money. Please choose someone different Dr. Christopher, orthopedic surgeon from knoxville goes to Jefferson City TN and has many good reviews as do many other doctors.
