11/14/11 3 3 1 1 who ever is deciding to have a knee replacent, be carefull to choose your doctor . I had my knee replacement with Dr. Alexander and suffered the entire year without any improvement and finlly giving up with so much pain and discomfort , went ahead and recieved another surgery by another Dr. and surprisingly when the second Dr. finished the surgery , He confirmed that the prosthesis that Dr Alexander has put in my knee WAS NOT PROPER SIZE !!!!!! now I feel much better and in my way to recovery .Dr alexander did a terrible job . I DO NOT RECOMMEND THIS DOCTOR AT ALL .

9/29/11 1 5 3 3 Dr. Alexander had to perform mulitple surgeries on my knee. Afterwards he wanted to perform another sugery and I refused. Still suffering. As for the previous comments, I too agree with 1 of his staff members and older lady who was very difficult to communicate with and did not return calls. Dr. Alexander personally seemed nice but professionally in the future I will look eslewhere.

12/31/10 1 5 5 3 I agree with the other review as for the Doctors staff (one) as I had a hard time getting a response back from her. After having a misunderstanding with this person it was very uncomfortable going back for my visit as it made for a very unpleasant atmosphere. My knee still hurts and I am unsure of what I really need to do. I think you will be pleased with the Doctor and prayfully the staff member will realize its professional and treat everyone with a caring attitude as no one wants to have surgury to begin with. Compassion in her job would suit her.

12/30/10 1 5 2 3 Doctor Cobb Alexander showed great interest in helping me with my hip problem. However, his staff was cold, unfriendly and not much help. I locate a new doctor in the future. It would benefit Dr. Alexander to look at his staffs attitude especially when I was nervous to begin with.
