Dr. Fambrough was very courteous and outgoing to me. He did carpal tunnel surgery on me and the results were great. He replaced my wife's knee and it has been a great success. He tells it like it is and I guess people don't like that. When these people get as old as Dr. Fambrough and I (70) maybe their patience will be a little better.

I felt so rushed after I was taken back to the exam room. He did a rushed and sloppy job putting on my cast. He made fun of me for falling and breaking my bone, I didn't think it was funny at all. When I left the exam room, he slapped me on the butt. Very unprofessional. He may know what he's doing, but he doesn't care about the patient.

Diagnosis was incorrect, has pretty much no bedside manner, was in a hurry to get me out of the room and didn't listen or let me say much of anything.

Went to see him for knee pain. Took time to explain in detail what the findings were. I would definitely recommend him!

I would only recommend this doctor if you want to see someone quickly. He does NOT have a good beside manner and was in a huge rush to get me out the door. He did not listen to what I had to say and cut me off in the middle of sentence.

Dr. Fambrough is the ONLY one I'll go to when I've done something stupid! :) He has a great bedside manner and is not in a rush to see you and get out. He answers all of your questions and seems to be truly concerned about you. Overall, a great doctor! I highly recommend him!
