This is a review on Dr. Michael A. McHenry, MD, OrthoAtlanta, Newnan
I'm 72 years old, 28 year Army Veteran and have probably understood and noticed attitudes of doctors for over 50 plus years. Without hesitation, I can say Dr. Michael McHenry has the worst attitude of any doctor I've ever had to go to for care. He was more annoyed and aggravated about another doctor providing him information to help me than why I was in such pain and couldn't walk without losing balance. His lack of care, arrogance, cavalier attitude, and dismissive concern for my health care was alarming.
Unfortunately, it took me to long to realize Dr. McHenry didn't have any interest in my care. By the time I requested a change to another doctor; getting reevaluated, that doctor identify the problem, consulted with other physician, then, immediately ordering treatments in an attempt to save me from permanent nerve damage; it was too late. As of today (19 June 2021), it looks like I will never walk assisted or unassisted again.
I place the blame for my condition squarely on McHenry’s condescending and dismissive attitude toward my care. For anyone reading this review and you value your quality of life, stay away from this person for medical care at all cost.

Dr. McHenry = arrogant, condescending, smug, sarcastic, horrendous bed-side manner. He is not a caring doctor. If I could leave negative stars, I would! During my visit, he leaned on the desk and did not seem one bit engaged or concerned about me as a patient. He was rude, did not show interest or concern with my issues. He even angrily stated that he was tired and had to get up at 3 a.m. He made it clear that I should be grateful that he came in to work today, despite the fact that he was sleepy. During the appointment, he asked what medication HE injected in my lower back/spine at the previous appointment. I was astonished that he did not know this important detail as he was the doctor who administered the shot. I told him that the information should be in my file. He responded by saying that that he didn't need my file. I couldn't believe that he did not have my file. Whenever I asked a question, he would give me curt answers w/out explanation and then condescendingly stare at me.

Dr. Mchenry has NO bedside manner! No people skills!! I could not get a word in with him!!! He was rude, arrogant, argues and accuses patients. He did not review my test results. When I asked for results, the office staff gave me a CD that I paid $5 for which only had pictures that only a radiologist could read. Just an awful experience!!!!! He dictates his assessment findings and God forbid you try to challenge what the transcriber writes in your chart as incorrect information, Dr. Mchenry will chew you up and paint you a liar as in my case. As a registered nurse, I reviewed my record and mentioned all the errors including the fact my name was even written wrong, he tells me, "oh so now you are saying something different"...if I was in court, I would have been locked up with all his accusations and conflicting report. I don't wish to have another encounter with him EVER!
