Patients frequently praise Dr. Ian Robert Byram for his thorough examinations, exceptional communication, and reassuring bedside manner. They appreciate his knowledgeable and empathetic approach, as well as the efficient and friendly service provided by his staff. However, some patients express dissatisfaction regarding his diagnostic methods, specifically the reliance on X-rays instead of more comprehensive imaging such as CAT scans or MRIs, which led them to seek a second opinion. While many find him to be caring and competent, a few patients feel their concerns were not fully addressed.

My experience with him was not good because he only took x-rays and x-rays does not show nothing but bones CAT scan or MRI shows everything but he did not offer that he said it from my neck and kind of left at that like he did not want to help me I felt like well he took the x-rays that he felt he did something good and all of this but personally, I’m still having shoulder problems and I’m going for a second opinion because my Physical therapist said that he did not do right by me and my friend. She said that he just shrugged me off so I really don’t recommend him and I would not send my family members there for whoever is reading this. Have a blessed day.

Great bedside manner. Explained everything in detail. I was fearful of getting an injection in my should but Dr Byram set me at ease. It was almost painless. Would highly recommend him.

Visited Dr. Byram for a shoulder issue. After an X-ray he did a thorough exam and we reviewed the X-ray together. He patiently explained what was going on …the good and bad. He provided some exercises and I departed with confidence I would not require surgery. Very happy with care provided by Dr Byram

Called to make an appointment with Dr. Looney or Dr. Arthur as I had a boating accident. The scheduler stated she had an opening with Dr. Byrum. I didn't realize he was a shoulder Dr. X-rays were taken. Dr. Byrum reviewed the X-rays with went over them with me. He also did an exam. Dr. Byrum explained everything to me. He was very polite, very caring but even more, he was very reassuring. Well I know who my shoulder Dr. Will be from now on. I love the Dr's. at Bone & Joint. Could not ask for better care.
