Dr. Bret Allen Ferree, MD

My Dr pays attention

I have referred to Dr Ferree over the years!

Dr. Ferree was very sympathetic - listened well to symptoms - gave options for treatment

Good experience, so far I'm pleased with the service.

The doctor was nice and professional . He explained my condition and his proposed treatment plan very well. He had excellent communication skills.

Very honest, kind and patient

Dr. Feree was amazing. He explained everything very well. He was very nice and caring. I would definitely recommend him.

I called my wife after my appointment and asked her if I was in the twilight zone. After waiting 40 minutes, He told me I had two deteriorating discs in my back. I was already aware of this. I have disc issues in my neck middle of my back and the lower back. He didn’t give me a chance to talk about anything but the lower back and he did all the talking. He spent two minutes with me before mid conversation he stands up and starts moving to the door to leave the room. I was practically begging him to help me figure out what is going on with my back. because deteriorating discs don’t cause people to throw their back out every few days. where it lasts anywhere between 72 hours and seven weeks where you can’t stand up straight. I am young. I have worked out consistently my entire life. And I am at the point where I can’t even move my weight in a chair some days without completely throwing out my back. He offered me no help. He wasn’t listening to me. Gave me no referrals. He was trying to… leave the room as quick as he could. After telling him physical therapy in the past triggered my back and caused it to be in such worse shape than it was prior to that he hands me a packet of exercises and said that’s all he can do. The entire visit was maybe five minutes. Again he just walked out of the room without even saying goodbye so I shouted down the hallway “I will see myself out“. hands-down the rudest doctor I have ever encountered and that is saying something as somebody who has finally hit their limit in dealing with the mercy network and their doctors. Switching back to the Christ hospital network. This guys license should be revoked. Patient care is not a priority for him. But I’m sure my insurance will get billed over a thousand for his 5 minutes with me where he did nothing.

Over 2 months of doctors’ appointments and treatment. I was sent to Dr. Ferree after seeing previous doctor at Wellington, as well as other medical doctors. Brief rundown of test results reviewed. Says I need cortisone injected into my spine. I explained previous cortisone injections did not help me. Seems he’s stuck on injections. Said no surgery for me, and again mentioned the injection before he left the room.

Microdiscectomy L4 L5 done today about 6 hours ago and I'm already up and albe to walk. Whole staff was polite and accommodating. Procedure was performed fast. Would definitely recommend
