Dr. John Cotton, MD

We were thrilled to see Dr Cotton on short notice. We came from having an MRI with no report yet. (Our fault.) We brought the MRI CD with us. His nurse practitioner was lovely. Took all the information to present to Dr. Cotton. He came into the room. Plopped himself on the table. We explained the many issues we had been having over the past month trying to get a solution for my husband's ankle. Just needed an answer. (My husband has Parkinson's Disease and has been in pain for a long time.) He explained what he saw on the MRI, then went on to explain his father had Parkinson's. Had gone downhill very quickly. Went on to say his father was having issues with a catheter. How he disintegrated so quickly. My husband and I were sick to our stomachs hearing this. We are battling the beginning stages of the disease. Then he explained he wanted another opinion on the MRI. Sent us on our way. We felt helpless. But he smiled as we left!

You won't actually see the doctor , unless you go ask for him ! All I ever seen was his nurse , I paid for MRI , went to get results , charged $5 more for office visit , and not even see or talk to Dr. Cotton , I expected to be professionally taken care of by my doctor not his nurse , that shows you how much he gets for not even meeting with me personally , Would give 0 stars if I could !!!!!??????????

Thankful he is here in our community

I only have one arm and wear my shoulder out on a regular basis, but Dr. Cotton said that after reviewing my MRI that it wasn't just the problem. I had a bone that had grown incorrectly in my shoulder. He took care of my problem that 3 previous surgeries and surgeons had missed. I would recommend him any anytime over others :-)

Dr. Cotton and the staff are cordial and professional. I am a work in progress, recovering from a Colles' fracture of my right wrist. Dr. Cotton explained fully and truthfully exactly how he would repair my wrist. He was and is very up-front concerning my full recovery. In my opinion, he and his staff are simply wonderful.

Dr. Cotton has been amazing through this entire process. My knee had substantial issues, but he was very aggressive with my treatment and didn't wait forever to get me into surgery when rehab didn't work. My procedure was great and his staff made sure I was VERY informed about the procedure and aftercare and even requested a home therapy DVT machine. He's been nothing but amazing! Thank you!

I can only extol the skill, presentation & service delivery of Dr Cotton and his team. The teamwork stunned me. First visit 5 weeks ago I was blown away by the fact based directions & hand in hand teamwork of each and every person. The goal was so obvious, fill my need. I fell landing on my 63 year old knee cap. Pain and fear was all I had to offer. They were ready for me w/ the ex ray just taken between the lobby and exam room. Each person contributed to the whole point my care. Thank U!!

I can’t say better things about Dr.Cotton. I highly recommend him. I have been having a lot of pain since surgery and he has always been able to get me in quick to reassure me that everything is okay with my shoulder. I am a nurse and work with orthopedic surgeons on a daily basis and I can honestly he is one of the best. His bedside manners are excellent and he explained the procedure thoroughly multiple times to make sure it is understood. I trust him 100% with my healthcare.

Absolutely love Dr. Cotton. He has been amazing through the whole process with my sons arm & surgery. We couldn't have asked for a better doctor!

I can't say enough good things about Dr. Cotton and the whole staff. Everyone from the receptionist to the x-ray staff was so kind and friendly. Dr, Cotton was very kind,patient and understanding with all of my questions. He was in no rush whatsoever. I had to have 2 cortisone injections in my shoulders and he explained everything he was going to do. He is a very caring and compassionate Doctor and I would recommend him to anyone who has joint problems.

Rude & arrogant. My 1st appointment was with Dr. Miller for a dislocated shoulder; he's great. He recommended an MRI & follow up with Dr Cotton. First, it took TWO phone called & TWO weeks to schedule my MRI because the office kept forgetting to submit MRI request. Cotton walked into the room no introduction. Briefly explained what was wrong & type of surgery I need & said When do you want to schedule. I wanted to think about it between surgery & the therapy & he just wanted to leave the room
