Worst doctor I ever seen

Spend very little time with me and barely examined injury spot - ordered me to do physical things that had nothing to do with my injury. Mandatory appointment for workers comp - attorney told me they would dismiss my case if I didn't see him. He sent report to court without even viewing x-rays from broken bone. Found out later his primary practice is the same as the initial orthopedist I saw - he is the Chief Medical Officer for that practice and he is past chief of staff at the hospital where I fell and broke my arm. I believe his only job was to protect a co-worker who falsified my medical records and to help keep the hospital from paying a claim. DO NOT SEE HIM. Look at his reviews throughout the medical system.

Absolutely the most arrogant doctor I've ever have had the pleasure of "seeing". Has no business putting Dr. in front of his name. He actions are an insult to the real true professional doctors who spend their lives dedicated to helping people. If you are instructed to receive a physical by him from an insurance company defense attorney fight it. He works for them and will lie to skew the reports he writes in favor of the attorney who hired him of course. Expert witness....!!!?!! He doesn't even belong to the AMA. At 71 ya know he's in it for the money. After all his years of "practicing" I'm sure there isn't anyone left in MN who would risk their health seeing him on purpose. 100% JERK!!!

In my experience i found him to be extreemly dishonest in a report, trying to portray me in a negative manner, I read a few bad reviews about him before my appointment so came prepared and recorded it on two separate devise's, I would recommend it. This is only a review on my experience, I saw him for an insurance matter and would think he would be different if he was working for me and not the insurance co. Also that picture is probably 20-25 years old, one might think that's a little misleading
