Did a total hip replacement on me for a workman's comp claim. Absolute profession. he did it in Jan 1997 in Memphis and I still have it. I worked as a ramp agent until 2012 with that hip. That's a very strenuous job. He was probably the best, most caring doctor I ever had. Everyone has personal demons. I hate that he moved to Martin.

It's been a few years, but he put a pin in my broken hand. He wasn't showing up for work when it came time to take the pin out, so after the third appointment he was a no show for I told the office I wasn't leaving until I had seen a doctor. I'm sure the doctor I saw was really mad at Ragsdale and not me but he was very rude. He actually showed up for the f/u and scolded me for demanding to see someone else to have the pin removed, which was long overdue and becoming painful and oozing puss. He then asked me how to spell puss -y. Pig. I am learning now, more than a decade later, that the tendon he cut to put the pin in shouldn't have been cut. His incompetence cost me the full use of my dominant hand. It came as no surprise to learn that his license was suspended in Memphis for prescription drug abuse. Find someone else, this guy is a mess, rude, self absorbed, and incompetent.

As long as you agree with him, he’s ok. As soon as you question him, he is rude and condescending.

I have been seeing Dr. Ragsdale for about 5 years for back and hip pain. He is compassionate and never rushes you out like some Doctors do. His staff is great and everyone is so friendly as they work together to meet my needs. He treats me like family. So happy he is here.

In 2003 he repaired a severe elbow injury I received that required 2 plates and 15 screws. The amount of functionality I have is amazing.
