Report
I was referred here by my doctor for knee pain and slight swelling that had been lingering for months. The office staff was wonderful, as was the x-Ray technician. Dr. Nathe was fine, but he was clearly only going by visuals & textbook "symptoms" and was very quick, and ultimately referred me to PT for IT band syndrome. I was certain it was not IT band syndrome, based on what I was feeling; fortunately, the physical therapist I went to paid close attention to how I described my knee pain, and he realized I'd probably torn my meniscus awhile back, and that it had healed but left me with scar tissue that I needed to break up.
After just a few days of simple exercises I was given by the PT, my knee already feels significantly better. I'm often left feeling that doctors don't listen enough to the details of what patients are saying and experiencing, and that was the case here at Proliance.

Terrible! I came for an X-ray for my back. Doctor told me the picture and angle were bad so she couldn't give me a diagnosis. So I paid for an X-ray and got nothing. So she just recommended I go to physical therapy. What a waste to pay for a visit and an X-ray to get no diagnosis and to be told to just go to physical therapy. Save your money and go somewhere else.

My surgery went well so that's not my complaint with this practice. Everyone that I've had contact with has come across as personable and professional, however I've never gotten a response to a message the same day, sometimes not even the next day. For that reason I would not recommend this practice. Orthopedics at Polyclinic is considerably more responsive and reliable when it comes to communication. I had my first THR at Polyclinic and somewhat wish that I had stuck with them. I'm going to Polyclinic for PT.

Dr. Schick and staff are ALL amazing. They educated us along the way with how our injury will heal and what to expect with them. While getting our splint CUSTOM made, I over heard Dr. Schick collaborating with his staff on recommendations. That speaks volumes as to how he respects the opinion of his staff.

The 1 star is for my experience with the doctor. I have a brace on my arm that was hurting and asked what could be done. The doctor didn't even glance at me and jumped to get x-rays instead. After taking x-rays, she didn't show them to me or explain anything, but instead immediately said I needed surgery. She started talking about young people who have this injury when I am in the elderly age range (i.e. the only thing she explained to me didn't apply to my circumstance).
She said and did everything very rudely and I just felt rushed. I was considering the surgery, but they rudely insisted I had to start the process now because I needed to get tested for covid 48 hours before. I decided to wait because I just didn't trust this doctor. They have called me a week later telling me they just scheduled my surgery for tomorrow and my covid test is today - contradicting what they said before! Luckily, I have found a much better doctor at another clinic.

I followed Dr Boone from his previous office to Proliance. Not only did he go to Proliance, but his staff went with him. I had already had several surgeries (and lots of problems following those surgeries) before I found Dr Boone. He was able to fix all of my problems from those surgeries. I went from not having a hip, and was told that I never would have a hip again, and I was confined to a wheelchair. Dr Boone never gave up on me, he makes me feel very comfortable.
He always had several options of what he could do when he would take me in for surgery. After several surgeries and about two or three years. I now have a hip, walk with crutches, and I am only in a wheelchair part time. I swear by Dr Boone and his staff, they are the best. I will never let another orthopedic surgeon operate on me again. I would strongly recommend him to anyone. Thank you Dr Boone, Janet Jones.
