Saw Dr. Murphy 5 weeks ago and he said his scheduler would call me back to schedule 2 procedures. She called me two weeks later after I called and left two messages. Her first question was “ So what are we doing” and then couldn’t understand when I explained to her. She suggested I come see the Dr again. I asked her to get with Dr Murphy and call me back. That was nearly 3 weeks ago! Dr Murphy is good but not so good it is worth dealing with an incompetent staff.

I broke my right Ulna, and after spending 3 1/2 weeks in a cast from over my wrist to above my elbow, decided it was time to see another doctor. We went to Dr. Murphy on a Monday and he had me in emergency surgery Friday, after getting the pre-op exams needed. The healing has been incredible. You can't even see the scar where he went in to put a plate. His staff is very friendly and helpful in handling all details. His, OR nurse, Donna, was the one able to pull the necessary strings to get this to all come together. Dr. Murphy is one of the kindest physicians we have ever had, and we are 70+. He never rushes you and addresses all issues.

Dr. Murphy is excellent! He is the only orthopedic that I completely trust with my care and the care of my children. Dr. Murphy has completed surgery on my knees and back. I have had no problems with either since, and I am back to a very active life. Thank You Dr. Murphy.
