Patient Reviews

  • “Dr. Massey and the entire staff were very helpful, thorough, and supportive from diagnosis of my condition through follow-up after my lumbar surgery. I am back playing golf and bowling! If ever the need arises again, I would not hesitate to use Strand Orthopaedics.”

They were courteous, compassionate, and very kind during this whole experience. We are incredibly fortunate to have Dr. Chambers as a leading orthopedist in our community. Thanks so much!”

  • “Met with Dr. Chambers to get knee injection for pain. He was very kind and gentle with the injection and explained the need for a TKR. I asked for a little more time to try to lose weight. He approved it. I will be seeing him again in June to discuss the total knee replacement. Excellent physician, office staff and very short waiting times.”
    – Mary E.
    Treating Doctor: Thomas J. Chambers, M.D.
  • “Staff at all levels courteous and professional. Dr. Butler assessed my right shoulder issues. He explained my options. Discussed risks of surgery. Described in detail the surgery and recovery process. Surgery scheduled and successfully performed. Post-op visits in the hospital and following discharge in the office were helpful and encouraging. Very positive experience.”

  • “Dr. Pappas was attentive, informative and very honest with me about my great toe. After three years of going to other doctors and lots of pain, we are lucky we found Dr. Pappas. He fixed it right up and now I can wear my old shoes from three years ago. Great doctor and great practice. I have and will continue to recommend.”
