Not enough to say yet. Going for MRI. He was cordial and so were most of his staff. The xray tech needs some customer care improvement.

He’s an excellent doctor, always shows concern. He takes the time to listen to symptoms, explain treatments and answer questions.

My husband went to OrthoStat/Ortho Memphis in excruciating pain in his shoulder/neck/arm with numbness/tingling in his left hand. Dr. Varner basically called my husband a "junkie" and intimated he was just there for pain pills. NEVER have I been so angry and frustrated with any (so-called) medical professional. This was my husbands first experience at Ortho Memphis and, if it's up to me, it will be his last. I would recommend EVERYONE to avoid Ortho Memphis at all costs if you are in pain and suffering. I understand the opioid crisis we have in our country right now but it cannot be that difficult for a medical facility to access medical records to see if a patient has been treated/given medications previously. My husband rarely goes to any doctor and, in my opinion, this was akin to malpractice to treat him as though he was just there "for the pills". He wanted TREATMENT...not pills. Ortho Memphis provided neither.

Dr. Varner should have retired years ago! I took my daughter to see him about an issue she was having in her back right thigh area. Her talked rude to her and was mad because my then 14 year old couldn't tell him exactly where the pain was coming from, only the area. He told me that the pain was all in her head and that I needed to take her to see a shrink!! What doctor tells a mother that about her child. We left in tears and then he charged me after not helping her at all. By the way Dr. Varner, she was diagnosed was Piriformis Syndrome, by an awesome dr who took as little as five minutes to diagnose her! You're one of the reasons why malpractice insurance is so high!!!! Misdiagnoses can cause death!!! Praise God for leading me to a physician that cared!!!
