Went to Dr. Brothers because of his affiliation with Andrew's Institute. Told him I want to be able to do what I want and wear whatever shoes I choose...I'm too young to feel so old, but my knee will not allow it. Pretty much told me sorry...do baby squats. Spent MAYBE 10 minutes with me, left me alone in exam room for 45 minutes (that was office staff's fault, not his) until I finally walked out and they had forgotten about me. Got an MRI ordered...for the WRONG knee. On top of that, billed me for an EXTENDED first time patient visit listing that I saw the doctor for an hour. Terrible first impression-definitely not going back

ANY Dr. who would look one of his patients that he had performed surgery on right in the eye and say, (exact words!), "I don't care, I'm done with this train, stop wasting my time." This after he replaced the same shoulder, TWICE in 3 months !!! THEN refused to do ANYTHING except remove the implant and leave nothing there, THEN, write me up as being "non-compliant" when he said he put an oversized implant in saying it would not rotate, (lasted all of 3 days !)and now because of the way he wrote me up no doctor within the Florida panhandle will even see me much less repair his lousy work. I HIGHLY recommend that you find ANYONE besides Dr. Anthony Brothers if you need an orthopedic specialist. His rudeness and non caring attitude put him in the class of people who I would not let pet my dog much less perform ANY type of medical procedure on me.

I would like to saw from making the appointment to seeing the doctor I could not have asked for better service. As for Dr. Brothers, I had seen him about 9 years ago and was so happy to hear that he was in practice here in my area. He is the easiest doctor to talk too and listens to you not at you. The office help was excellent.
