Dr. Edward Brooke Roberts, MD

I had a great experience and no issues with my treatment and no more issues with my shoulder pain.

He is a great doctor and helped me with my neck pain. He has great bedside manner. The entire staff was polite and nice from start to finish. I will be going back for any other treatments I may need in orthopedics.

Closed minded, VA doctor that doesn't take accountability for mis treatment of patients. He will drain your insurance without results or effective treatment.

Very professional, caring and courteous. Likewise for the staff. Excellent care.

Dr Roberts is the laziest doctor that I have ever had the terrible misfortune of meeting. I went to doctor Roberts for pain that started in my hip and went all the way down to the top of my knee. I had all the symptoms of sciatica caused by a herniated disc. This was too difficult for Dr Roberts to figure out. Dr Roberts sent me to physical therapy without a diagnosis. Therefore, the physical therapy that I received was useless without the therapist knowing what injury to treat. I finally got an MRI from Dr Roberts. I had a herniated lumbar disc. Dr Roberts recommended that I have an epidural steroid injection (ESI) for pain relief. Dr Roberts never told me that ESIs only provide temporary pain relief with an associated significant risk of permanent disability if the spinal cord is punctured during the procedure. Dr Roberts never told me that the drugs used for ESIs are not approved by the FDA for epidural administration and have never been proven to be safe or effective for this type… of administration. The drugs that are used for ESIs (Kenalog for example) are contraindicated for this purpose by the manufacturers themselves. It says this right on the manufacturer supplied package inserts. Apparently Dr Roberts is not even aware of this. Dr Roberts never bothered to take the time to explain the logic behind ESIs. ESIs only give temporary pain relief while exposing patients to significant risk of permanent disability. In other words, ESIs are extremely dangerous while at the same time useless for any kind of long term pain relief. After doing extensive research on my own about pain relief for herniated discs, I would consider Dr Roberts to be grossly incompetent and careless in his work. I would not recommend Dr Roberts to anyone. Not for any procedure or diagnosis of any kind and without any exceptions of any kind.

Dr. Roberts is a great physician, and knows what he is talking about.

Dr. Roberts is very good. I would recommend him to anybody. He's very friendly, nice, and polite. I couldn't have asked for a better doctor.

he was spot on what my problem was with my knee and surgery went very well.
