“I wasn't sure what to expect, but I feel that Dr. Mathern cares, and I am not just a patient but a person. Thank you for making me feel acknowledged.”
“Dr. Mathern was extremely thorough in his assessment of my condition. He took the time to explain what was causing my symptoms and offered several suggestions for treatment. He was very professional and personable. I purposely made an appointment with him because of his specialty. He is an excellent addition to the OrthoSC practice.”
“This was my first visit with Dr. Mathern, and he was professional. He explained everything clearly, which made me feel welcome and comfortable.”
“Dr. Mathern was extremely nice and extensive in his examination. I am happy he was able to come up with a plan and a goal. I am looking forward to working with Dr. Mathern.”
“Dr. Mathern was thorough and spent time explaining the MRI results to me. He put me at ease with my treatment going forward, and I really appreciate the time he spent. Changing from one doctor to another can be uncomfortable, but I left feeling positive about my future treatments.”
“Dr. Mathern is an excellent provider. He listened to my history and took the time to create a plan for my issues. He is new, but he is off to a great start.”
“I had my first appointment with Dr. Mathern after he replaced my doctor, who retired. I’ve seen several doctors for pain management who never took my pain seriously. Needless to say, I was worried that he would be the same. I was very impressed when he walked into the room and wanted to hear my story. I felt that he was genuine and trustworthy. I look forward to working with him to achieve the best quality of health, given my situation. Welcome aboard, Dr. Mathern.”
“Dr. Mathern came into the room and introduced himself. I was impressed he had reviewed my chart before our meeting instead of reading it during our time. We discussed my treatment and the plan for my future. My goal is to have my pain level (at rest) kept between 2-4. Dr. Mathern has a sense of humor like myself. He was very friendly and explained everything clearly so we could understand. I respect him as my physician. I asked him to increase my medication dose from 7.5 to 10. and he recommended that I stay with my current plan. Again, I was impressed. I look forward to having Dr. Mathern treat me for pain.”
