Dr. Patricia Stuart, MD

One of the WORST physicians I have ever seen in my life! The moment she walked in the room she looked at me and made the snap decision that I wasn't a candidate for knee replacement surgery. She stated that I'm overweight and too young. Had she taken a moment to ask anything about myself she would have learned that while I was overweight, I had recently lost over 100 lbs. and maybe she could provide a weight range in which I would be eligible. She sent me to get X-rays and when she came back in the room she was shocked to see that my arthritis was bone on bone with no cushion left. She still refused to help but did suggest that I make an appt with a another surgeon in her practice who might help. After which she scoffed at my cardiologist's instructions to avoid NSAID pain relievers because I've already had 2 massive heart attacks and they are very dangerous to people with my history. She literally said that 'everything has risks!' Please go to any other surgeon but her!

At first seemed to be caring, very quickly I discovered her to be rude. She doesn't listen to you while you speak and not very detailed as she passes you along to another doctor. As if it didn't take weeks to call me on a MRI result. I needed an additional clearance from ortho to go along with my other doctors clearance to go back to work on restriction. Couldn't get a word in to fax over FMLA form while she talked and probably assumed I was out of work for no reason. I will be finding another location for my surgery.

Go to a vet first, or a witch doctor.

I have never had any issues with her. She is very professional and at the same time can be very friendly."

I had knee surgery done by her and refer to her as the butcher. Wouldn’t send my worst enemy to see her.

I thought orthropedic partners takes pride in the commitment to patient care and that patients had the right to considerate and courteous care, don't expect that from this doctor. She has a terrible bedside manner, she is extremely rude and dismissive. I saw her for less than five minutes, and she barely said a word. Just nodded "uh huh" while i tried to explain my symptoms. When i asked for something to take for the pain while i wait for my MRI, and she literally yelled at me. She's miserable.

My Veterinarian is more considerate. This physician is in my estimation a horror show. She spent about 3 minutes with me (not an exaggeration) said i needed a referral. Explained nothing and walked out of the room. We thought she was going to return, but shortly after her Nurse came in and walked us out for a Hospital appointment. We were referred to a physician without knowing his name, and when we called to find out they stone walled us.
