So if it doesn't make since if my back hurts from bending twisting turning wether off work or working, I wanted to work 6 days a week to see how I do. Dr. Chapman is ordering a MRI too."

I'm sure he was very busy but he spent a lot of time with us and answered all our questions and never seemed rushed. I feel confident he will help me become pain free and am comfortable with the surgery he will perform."

    "I have only positive comments about staff and treatment. However, I was under the false impression participating in online registration and check-in would expedite my 9:00 am appointment. I was not called into the exam room until 9:30, a half hour after the scheduled time. Unfortunately, I had to cancel an appointment made elsewhere scheduled for 10:00."

    "Uh, he was very, very professional. I'm more than happy with him. And, uh, he worked with me to help me try to solve my problem, which is probably unsolvable, but at the best we got. And I do appreciate him taking his time out to, uh, explain to me what the back problem was all about. And was only one thing I could probably do to help fix it. And, uh, I appreciate him very much. Thank you."

    "Dr Chapman explained my issues in more details and showed me my mri results in 1 visit than [REDACTED] did. I went to [REDACTED] 2 times and it was a waste of time and money. He doesn't explain anything and didn't do anything for me. I don't recall getting this survey after visiting [REDACTED]."

    "When leaving the office I along with anyone else walking by could overhear the talk to text being used regarding my visit. The provider stated I smelled strongly of smoke, is aware healing will take longer. Smoking was discusses at my first visit not this one. I actually have cut back quite a bit since being injured but that was never asked about. Personal opinions shouldn't be on my medical file. It's unacceptable."

I'm still pain free on which is so much better. As I am going to have my other sacrilliac joint done ,I totally trust Dr Chapman will get me out of pain. Kudos to his staff for making all the arrangements and getting me scheduled for surgery within a week. Thank you."

I also, I was hoping I would have got something for the pain because I was pretty miserable yet when I came home because I got three weeks before I go and see Dr. Musmarski. So I'm just trying to hang in there. But otherwise I was very dissatisfied with him examining me and telling me what was up. Thank you."

He apologized right when he came into the room because he was slightly behind on appointments. He's always very courteous and doesn't rush you to get out. He's simply fabulous and I'm so thankful he was the one to do my surgery."
