Dr. Jeffery W Spychalski, MD

I had a horrible experience with this office and doctor...I mean HORRIBLE. I have never in my life had to fight back te...ars at a doctor's office, until today. I was concerned when I had to hold for 30 minutes just to schedule my appointment, but I had no clue what I would be in for once I arrived. Dr. Spychalski is the rudest doctor I have ever met. Did not introduce himself and avoided all eye contact. He never once looked me in the face. I felt like he was appalled by my presence. I already have a diagnosis from my prior doctor, but due to insurance, I was sent here. He dismissed my clear diagnosis, but in the most condescending manner agreed he could do surgery still, but doubts it will help...claiming I have severe arthritis in my knee so fixing the torn meniscus wouldn't matter. 1. I do not have severe arthritis according to my prior Doctor, MRI report, and my personal experience of having no pain until this injury. 2. I tried to explain all of this to him and he didn't care. Acted like I was stupid and said "be prepared for a lifetime of pain" due to arthritis. Well considering I was pain free prior to tearing my meniscus 2 months ago, I think I'll take my chances with surgery...but NOT from him. As much as I hate to delay the ordeal of getting my knee fixed any longer, I do not trust this doctor to perform a safe and accurate surgery. If I were you, for your health and sanity, I would avoid seeing Dr. Jeffrey Spychalski or any doctor in the office of Orthopaedic Specialties Associates. more details

He did not even look at the injury and sent my daughter to a physical therapist... spoke very fast until I told him tha...t i was disatisfied with his answer and lack of ingiry... I hope he has not misdiagnosed... too soon to tell more details
