Dr. Erik Christopher Gryler, MD

My wife broke her leg at home and was taken to ER by ambulance. Dr Gryler saw her in the hospital and said since it was a clean break, that he would just cast it and let it heal on its own. It continued to cause her severe pain and was terribly curved. We mentioned her pain during every office followup visit, but he did nothing to ease it. Finally 4 months later he agreed to rebreak her leg and install plates and screws. He stopped all of her meds during this surgery and unbelievably neglected to restart them following surgery. She has been on prescribed oxycodone and fentanyl and many other addictive medicines for over 10 years because of severe back pains following 14 previous surgeries and is highly addicted to these meds. Without receiving her meds she went into a catatonic state (his words) and was uncommunicative and on the edge of dying. Dr. Gryler told me he didn't know enough about how to fix her problems, and finally turned her over to a hospitalist after 6 days. I… contacted a lawyer because none of these doctors were willing to start giving her her medicines properly again. The lawyer got her meds restarted and after 1 month in the hospital she finally revived and was allowed to come home. I would not recommend this doctor, or this hospital, to anyone.

I have had 5 surgeries from Dr. Gryler and all went phenomenal. He saved me from having a plate in my arm and used rods instead. Put my hand back together with pins. Put a screw in my foot and removed all the hardware when done with no problems. He also fixed my broken arms 3 other times without surgery! I would recommend him to anyone!!! He’s very nice and is great at what he does! If you need an orthopedic surgeon he is definitely the man to go to! Without him I would be all messed up and now I feel like I never had an injury in those locations! If I could give him 6 out of 5 I would!

Excellent care.

This was my first day is it and I’m quite satisfied so far.

wonderful experiencwe;

I have had two different surgeries by Dr. gryler and both were a big success. I know several of his patients and they were all very pleased with their results.

Doctor is not a patient advocate. Very poor communcation skills with patient and family. Let's injuries persist without correct diagnosis.

We're lucky to have a doctor of his caliber in our small town. He treated my mom's arthritis with a surgical hip and now shes back walking around on her own. Thank you!!!**!!**!!
