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.

A Fantastic Physician
After a fall induced shoulder injury Orthosouth and then Campbell Clinic wanted me to start rehabilitation work. I wanted to know what was precious wrong and that called for a MRI. Both organizations refused the request so I decided to see Dr. Lochemes. After hearing my story he agreed… an MRI was needed and it showed I had 2 small fractures. Rehab would have been terrible for that. So we waited and unfortunately I developed a frozen shoulder. When Dr. Lochemes thought the fractures were healed I started rehab on the frozen shoulder. That’s a very painful situation which can last for years. I was seeing Dr. Lochemes every 2 to 3 weeks and after about 4 months of his care and rehab the arm started to “thaw” out and I rapidly regained motion and the pain virtually went away. Dr. Lochemes was attentive to details, explained everything that was going on in my shoulder and extremely accessible. I think the world of him. I still see him. He will always be my go to orthopedic MD.

He took the time to listen to my concerns and made sure he understood my descriptions of pain. Dr. Lochemes examined the joint and then took time to explain his findings and possible solutions. He even sent me a personal contact number for questions.

Dr Lochemes, Titan Orthopedics is a miracle worker. I injured my knee badly and went to Cambel clinic. For 3 months they kept telling me it would get better. Only it was getting worse, unable to put weight on it. Gave me a $1000 brace, which did allow me to very slowly get around. Cortisone injections, Gel injection, still got worse. My sister said," stop playing around with Cc, and go to Dr. Lochemes. He fixed me, both sons, and my husband goes to him." So I did. Within 2 weeks, he performed surgery on my knee (and my trigger finger). Three weeks later, I am walking without a brace, walking up to a mile at a time, and only moderate pain that is going away day by day. Oh and he is warm and caring with an excellent staff, icing on the cake. You have an ortho issue, this is the Dr you want to see.

I hear so many negative things about cortisone shots and the pain associated with them; I didn't feel a thing! I am leaving the care of my knees with Dr. Lochemes.

Doctor & staff very friendly so I gave two stars. Took my son in to see Dr Lochemes in October & November 2018 because he received very good reviews. He said MRI showed scar tissue, and probably needed to see a rheumatologist/neurologist. Rheumatologist & Neurologist found no problems. It is now May 2019. Another doctor ordered a arthrogram and found full-thickness infraspinatus tears in his rotator cuffs. We are trying stem cell therapy now trying to avoid surgery.

I was running late and i called in, staff was really nice and understanding still let me sign in after i was 10 minutes late. The x-rays were quick. Dr Lochemes was all ears to everything i has to say....my symptoms...my pain...he offered several options as far as testing to come up with an accurate diagnosis. I am very happy google brought up Dr. Lochemes while i was searing for a knee pain doctor.

Dr. Lochemes was open, fair, and honest through consultation, my surgery, and recovery afterwards. I had complete trust that his recommendations were grounded entirely in what was best for me and my life. The resulting surgery proved my trust well-placed. With luck I won't need surgery again, but if I do I'll be coming back to him.
