Dr. Edwin Alex Hissa JR., MD

Was the rudest dr. I had ever had the displeasure of meeting. Waste of time

I had heard that he he was rude but was very good surgeon. So i didn’t care if he was rude if he was good at his job. I realized as soon as i woke up from surgery what people were talking about. He did not use any local anesthetic , i woke up crying in severe pain, the nurses were even mad. They were aloud to give me a hydrocodone. But of course he left the hospital before he could hear any complaints from me. He prescribed my hydrocodone to take at home. I laid in bed crying for 2 days, i called his office to ask about get a higher dose of pain killers and he refused. His man does not care about the wellbeing of his patients at all.

This so called Dr was the most unprofessional Dr, to say the least. He was extremely Rude & would cut me off mid-sentence. He was loud & obnoxious to get his point across. Mentioned that Mother Nature was not kind. He smarted off about the size of "DOG" I had. Then he stood up directly in front of me & smiled w/ a smirk on his face, shook my hand & walked out. Ridiculous!

I was quite apprehensive about seeing him due to the negative reviews, but we found him to be pleasant and informative. Diagnosed problem and made appropriate referral. Would see him again.

I broke my ankle in 3 places I think he called it a Trimacular. I believe that I received the very best care from this surgeon and his team. Very afraid right before entering surgery because he did not greet me in pre-op just walked up and was very serious about the paperwork and file in front of him. I guess that's a good thing. He has in every follow up appointment been personable and open to questions whether you like the answer or not. I followed his orders to a T. His credentials are very good when I did the research and he seems to love this small town type community and its people. Glad he is Here!!

After 5 surgeries my wife convinced me to see a professional. Very rude and arrogant to both of us. Suggested we were lying about my compliance to his orders. Have never encountered any medical professsional so unprofessionable!

Upper humurus fracture, the ends of the bones were not even facing each other. Dr. Hissa, instead of arranging surgery, opted for a sling and a 'wait to see what mother nature will do.' The bone had already been broken for two weeks, we were referred by the ER in our local hospital. We were to see Dr. Miller, but he was out of town. All Dr. Hissa wanted to do was prescribe low dose pain meds.

He stops you in the middle of a sentence and scolds you for not answering his question the way he wanted. He has no bedside manner. He wants a yes or no answer because he isn't interested in hearing about your pain. He will mock you if you repeat your symptoms. Please don't waste your time with this "Dr" as I did. I would never recommend him to anyone. There is a reason I got in to see him so easily. Beware.

When my wife tried to ask a question concerning potential elbow surgery on our five year old Dr. Hissa held up his hand, said "hold that thought" and left the room not to return. Never again.

Dr Hissa did my first knee replacement, and never again. Not a success. He thinks he knows everything. Not a people person. He's not a caring doctor.
