Dr Cordell has done both of my wrist because of carpal tunnel and she has done both of my shoulders because of torn rotator cuffs and I did great and honestly very little pain. I would recommend her to anyone and have. Hot Springs should be proud to have her here.

Mother was referred to this dr. for a complete rotator cuff tear in the shoulder. You let her know that you disliked the way the radiologist did the MRI and the report because it wasn't done "the way you liked it". You offered no surgery options, in which all over the web as well as our PCP and the APN suggested would have to be done, but rather gave 6 weeks of PT instead. Go back to UAMS where you came from, we will find another doctor. Oh and your "better than you" attitude was unwelcome as well!!

The people above are idiots that only want pain pills, she is the best doc in AR.! I hate that people thread about their pain because they are pill heads...She did a surgery on me and it was perfect. From what I hear, she tells other doctors how to do their jobs. Way to go Cari!

Don't care for her personality and patient treatment. Seems very cold.
