Dr. Keith Jerome Odegard, MD

There was more damage to my shoulder than the MRI showed, and Dr Odegard was still able to scope it and he took extra time to repair the issues. My recovery from this surgery has been much less painful than the one I had from the same surgery 20 years ago. The anesthesiologist also did an outstanding job.

Told me to "take him home and let him alone". Took the CD of the xrays Odegard did to another Doctor and discovered the tumor...Odegard knew it was there and chose to ignore it and told me to do the same. He never told me about the tumor that was the size of a quarter and easy to see on the film. Successful out come by the new doctor. This was 6 years ago. At age 88 still walking on the leg goes to the gym every morning. Works part time. I did not let him just wind down in pain.

VERY DISRESPECTFUL!! I HAD MY SURGERY OVER SIX MONTHS AGO FOR FRACTURED ANKLE AND I AM STILL NOT WALKING!! I have nerve damage (I believe to be from the surgery but either way he opted not to fix it)! I am in constant pain and I can't get the doctor or staff to return any of my calls. Very Unprofessional!! Because of his blatant disregard for me and rude comments regarding my weight, He will probably be speaking with my lawyer!

This guy makes a mockery of good Dr.'s everywhere. I have never been so humiliated, and berated by a "professional" in my life. Just because one is a Dr. does not give one a right to treat someone with such rudeness. I can see why people in chronic pain commit suicide if they are stuck with "professionals" like this. Over it.

Excellent. Takes time. Explains procedure

Dr. Odegard was friendly, compassionate, terrific bedside manner. he is an excellent surgeon.

Fantastic doc! Friendly, informative, patient. Took a lot of time with me. Excellent bedside manner before surgery. He is the best!

Rude, abrasive, ego, horrible bedside manner, genuine lack of empathy, and everything else I'd never want in a person I was paying a lot of money to help me. Don't forget you pay your doctors to work for you. Of they're not knowledgeable or helpful, find someone who is!

Absolutely terrible. Poor bedside manner and a repulsive ego. He didn't seem knowledgeable and didn't research my rare disorder (diagnosed by genetics) when treating me for an injury.

Fantastic surgeon, one of the best in St. Louis and midwest.
