Let me go ahead and say that I highly recommend you never use Houston Orthopedics. Unless of course you like being screwed. First they will put you through a ringer of tests (and charge you a co-pay for each visit, and each test), oh wait...let me back up...first, they will make you an appointment where you will then proceed to sit in their waiting room for nothing shorter than 45 minutes after your appointment before you are even taken to an exam room that you will then proceed to sit in for another 15-20 minutes before anyone walks in to see you, then they will recommend surgery, (that will not fix your problem), then when you complain that you are still having problems they will recommend physical therapy 3 times a week for a month (that they will proceed to charge you a co-pay for each one, not when you go of course...no after when it still didn't fix the problem and you now have a ridiculously high bill) and you will still be in pain, or have numb fingers and be told that "it's just going to take time to heal." Bunch of quacks. Thank you Dr. Easom...for nothing.
