Dr. William Roy Schooley, MD

DON'T ever let this man near you with a knife!!! He left me to die! He left 52 inches of gauze inside me and sent me home! I got MRSA & ECOLI!!! HE CUT TGROUGH THE MESH FROM MY HERNIA SURGERY TO DO MY BACK SURGERY! Now I stay sick all the time and no Dr or hospital will touch me within lifeflight distance of Centennial Hospital. The Dr's say Dr Schooley left me as a major liability and after what he has done to me, I will never survive any other abdominal surgery!!! He has took my life away from me!! They need to take his license!!!!

Dr. Schooley has been my doctor since 2016. He has helped me through many issues with my spine. I have never had a more caring doctor. I had issues with my insurance not wanting to cover procedures that were needed and he fought for me. I witnessed him become visibly very upset because the insurance was willing to let me stay in unnecessary pain rather than cover the procedure. He continued to fight for me until the insurance agreed to allow me to have the procedure. I have never had a doctor that actually talked to you and showed he really was listening to what was going on with you and genuinely cared. I gave only 4 stars because of the office lady that schedules appointments for outpatient procedures and tests. She never returned phone calls. She had a bad habit of not checking where my insurance would cover before scheduling appointments. More than once I had to find places my insurance covered and schedule them myself and call and leave her a message so she knew what was… happening. Aside from her my experience was as great as it could be considering the situation.

I can't help but feel the pain, for now it's from lower spine, taking the pain up into the neck, and Chronic Migraines are excruciating. I am in so much pain. Please rework this issue for me. I can only sit up 15 minutes per time. I am not able to drive anymore. Can't lift, can't ride in vehicle. My life is drastically changed in the past 4 years. Dr. William R Schooley~ I'm in need of you very bad. Please contact me to see if there is anything you can do to help me. This is affecting myself from working, family and friends are so concerned for my spurs are really getting unbearable in my neck. You mentioned in about 3 years I would be in need of neck surgery... You was precisely correct. Please assist me. You may call 931~306~0557 Susan Renee Bengtson

The girl that is supposed to call you with appointments at other facilities NEVER calls you. After you wait for days you end up calling her just to leave a message that never gets returned. This has happened three times. She doesn’t send the order to the other facility so you end up calling and getting someone else in the office to do it because your appointment has been cancelled. This is extremely frustrating when someone has to take off work to drive you only to have the appointment cancelled because the office didn’t do their job. When you call it’s rare to get someone. When you call a doctors office you expect someone to answer the phone.

My BIGGEST PROBLEM with this office is that you can NEVER reach them by phone when necessary!!! Surgery arrival time confirmation for tomorrow? They’re busy... leave a message! No excuse for this! Hire a designated person for the phone!!! Patients should always be able to reach their Dr.’s office during regular business hours! Important messages have been left and calls NEVER returned! This is unacceptable! This is an extension of patient care & it is CONSISTENTLY a problem. Something needs to be done about it immediately.

It took me 6 weeks to see Dr. Schooley. I went to him looking for results and a possible treatment plan for my back which is causing me severe pain. I had had several ct scans, and mri's in preparation for this appt. All which I had brought with me. When the Dr. met me, he barely gave me 5 minutes of his time. He did not review any of the test results with me, gave me no diagnosis, and offered no treatment option. I was so flabbergasted that I could not speak. All he said was no surgery! When I explained how much pain I was in he responded with arrogance and appathy. In all my 58 years I have never met a Dr. who did sooooooo little!
