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.

Thank you Dr. Morris!
This note is for Dr. Morris. I was involved in a serious car accident on April 2, 2019. Every now and then I can remember your voice and somehow during that hazy consciousness I became confident that I would survive. I can’t remember the accident since I was unconscious but I remember you telling me that you could remove my neck brace. Your steady calm confident voice is my first memory after the car accident. I appreciate you so much!! I’ll never forget how awesome North Oaks Trauma Unit was, and their staff! I also remember Aaron and Dr. Fahr and their concerning care for me. Thank you all for saving my life and providing me caring memories forever.

Shoulder pain
I went to see Dr. Morris for shoulder pain. After taking x-rays she recommended reverse shoulder replacement. After being shown a video of what was involved with this procedure, I decided not to have the surgery. I tried to get an appointment to discuss other options with Dr. Morris and was told by someone else in her office, that Dr. Morris said there was no point in making another appointment if I didn't want the surgery or Cortisone shots (which I cannot take). I felt she could have at least spoken to me herself. I sought a second opinion with another doctor and am glad I did. He did not recommend the surgery for me and suggested other types of therapy that could offer some relief.

Awesome Doctor, awesome person
Dr. Katy is everything a patient should expect from their Dr. She checks every box possible when evaluating a Physician. She makes you feel so comfortable when you're with her, you feel like a family member rather than a patient.

Wait for it, wait for it...
+ Dr. Morris is thorough and includes patient in on the treatment plan. +Nancy was welcoming and friendly. +Nurse practitioner and ultrasound tech were nice. -Patients are asked to arrive 15 minutes early, which I did. However, the wait time was unfavorable. The same courtesy to patients regarding their time is not extended. If Dr. Morris was busier than usual (seemed like she was overbooked), then I would have appreciated the courtesy of a phone call to reschedule or at least notification from staff so that I could make the decision whether to wait as long as I did.

One of the best!
Dr. Morris is very patient and treated me well. Unfortunately, she recently broke her leg. She had a long leg cast on her right leg and she was on crutches. Despite her hobbling around and not being able to walk properly, she still worked. That's dedication!

Visited Dr Katy again and as usual her upbeat professional yet personal manner is greatly appreciated. I have confidence and take comfort in her care. Having had her surgically repair a torn bicep in the past, I am unconcerned about the prognosis for my current orthopedic issue as my bicep is as good as "new."

One of the best
Dr. Morris is by far one of the best Dr.’s who have treated me. Even though I had a very rare injury that literally 7 other Dr.’s couldn’t figure out a treatment for, Dr. Morris came up with a plan to get me back on the field. After my awesome experience I referred my mother to her for rotator cuff issues she was having. Dr. Morris provided the same type of care, concern, and expertise for my mother’s injury that she showed me. Anytime someone I know needs to see an Orthopedic, I HIGHLY recommend Dr. Morris.

She also has my husband for a patient. He feels the same way I do about her. We will definitely recommend her to our family and friends.
