If I could change one thing about OAM it would be how busy they are. However, after experiencing first hand how amazing their entire staff is, it’s no wonder they’re so busy. Everyone wants to see the best and they are. I owe so much to Dr. Potts and his team, it’s hard to put that into words for a review. If I could give more stars I would

I had a total knee replacement by Dr. Potts and I couldn’t be happier. It has only been six weeks but I am very mobile already. He takes the time with his patients to explain what is going to happen. He has been right on time for my appointments. The office staff and rehab staff are great very friendly and caring. I highly recommend Dr. Potts.

My father has been visiting Dr. Potts for a year now. He never could diagnose him and he is in torturing pain and can not work due to piriformis syndrome (diagnosed by PCP). Which is a swollen hip muscle that is pressing up against his sciatic nerve causing him bolting pain in his hips, leg, and foot. We are not satisfied with the treatment he has been receiving. I just want to see my father out of pain and to get treated properly.

Dr Potts has work on many of my close family, including myself. He helped me to be pain free after years of living in constant pain with my knees.
