Patient Reviews

  • “I had been experiencing severe pain in my right heel. The pain was so bad that I was unable to walk in the mornings or after sitting for more than a half hour. I tried different shoes and insoles to no avail. Dr. Mills agreed to see me (his daughter and my daughter were taking gymnastics together). He asked very specific questions to determine the best treatment for my particular need. Dr. Mills was professional, compassionate and thorough. He really, truly cares about people. He treated me more like a friend than a patient. After his exam, he treated me for plantar fasciitis. I heeded his advice and bought good shoes and quality insoles. I haven't had the pain return. Thank you Dr. Mills and staff, my quality life is much better now.  ”

  • “Dr. Tupis is a skilled professional who takes time to listen and explain things. He did a phenomenal job repairing my rotator cuff. Not only is he a great doctor but a wonderful human being, you can sense he cares every time you see him. I am very fortunate that I chose him.”

  • “My operation for my left hip, performed by Dr. Ramsey, was truly amazing. My pain was managed, my surgery site was healed beautifully, and I regained full use of my left leg and hip in an unbelievable short time. My doctor was personable, caring and informative. I was treated like a friend in lieu of a patient. The supporting staff, often overlooked, was fantastic and friendly. I have recommended him to all my friends and relatives, and will continue to do so.”

  • “I broke my ankle on the same day my husband was seeing Dr. Mills and even though I did not have any insurance they said we will see you and work with you. Everyone has been wonderful and have let me make payments on my bill. We highly recommend the doctors and staff at Coastal Orthopedics. My husband had back surgery with Dr. Mills and is in less pain than he has been in 25 years. He was up walking in less pain the day after surgery and left the hospital that day.”

  • “Could not believe the level of comfort I had with the meds I was given after and during surgery. Also, amazed that I was out of the hospital in just 24 hours. Dr Tupis was great and all follow up was excellent, PT went well and was on my own in 7 weeks. Back to walking for exercise and playing golf.”

  • “At the time I was a police officer and a member of the SWAT team but due to my hips being so bad I could not remain a member as it was extremely difficult to train. I was facing an early retirement until I met Dr. Ramsey. At the first meeting he viewed the X-rays and determined that my left hip was very bad even though I was only 58 at the time and my right hip wasn't far behind. We elected to have my left hip replaced in August of 2010 and if things went well the other would be replaced in November of the same year. The surgery went so well that I was only in the hospital two days one the first surgery and one day for the second. My rehab went extremely well and I was back to full duty on January 1, 2011. Even though my SWAT days were over I was able to function normally enough to pass all physicals and training to remain a Sgt. on lead my shift. I can't thank Dr. Ramsey and the therapist enough as I have been retired for three years now and do most anything I want to.”
