Very rude did not listen to me, was walking out WHILE I was still talking to him and trying to ask questions had to get nurse to get him to come back in. Made me feel like I was a bother to him. NEVER EVER AGAIN!!!

I walked in to Dr.Haydel's office and I was terrified about getting a shot in the knee but I knew I needed one. He was so nice and understanding and I was such a wuss. The injection was virtuallly painless and I would not hesitate to have it done again. Within one day my pain was cut in half and here it is the second day and I'm pain free. I'm not saying it would work that fast on everyone but I'm 100% satisfied with Dr.Haydell.

Very dry personally. Saw my daughter didn't address he or speak to her. Walked in and said she broke her bone. Didn't even look at or touchy her injury. Wouldn't see him again if I needed to see an orthopedist.

I had surgery performed by this doctor and post-op was extremely painful. He would not refill the medication. Made me feel like some kind of addict instead of a patient who just had surgery and had pain. I feel this Dr is after just the money and blows you off after the insurance claim is filed. By his Hippocratic oath, he vowed to care for his patients. I called his office every day for 1 week post-op for help. I wasn't even asking for more meds, just some help. They just assumed I wanted drugs. I had to end up calling my uncle, who was a surgeon in another town, and he gave me tips to help alleviate the pain. He even said he heard bad things about this dr and he was sorry that it happened. He was appalled at the lack of concern. The staff was even worse. I doubt they passed on half the messages i left for the doctor and they were extremely rude.

Dr. Haydel was polite and had good bedside manner. He was very competent and I would highly recomend him to anyone who needs to see an orthopedic surgeon.

Extremely competent with a great staff. I have had nothing but 1st class experiences and treatment with Dr. Haydel. I put absolute trust and faith in his diagnosis and decision every time I have seen him and have come to thoroughly enjoy my visits with him. Even though the wait at times is a little long, it is always more than worth it.
