What Our Patients Are Saying

As you research the best options for eliminating your pain, you may be interested in hearing from other patients who have experienced similar conditions and the options they chose as remedies. Below we have provided a few real-life solutions for a number of orthopedic conditions. We encourage you to share your stories with us as well.

“For several months, I had noticed a twinge in my shoulder every time I reached up to get a glass from the cabinet or raised my arm over my head. Before long, the twinge became a pain. After a while, it became very uncomfortable for me to move my arm much at all. Everybody I talked to – friends who had experienced similar pain, even doctors – all said I should prepare myself for surgery. So, on the advice of my sister, I went to Azalea. They did a physical exam and an MRI and recommended a specific rehab program. Within just a few weeks, I could move my arm in a full rand of motion with NO pain. I am very grateful to be back to my old self with NO pain, NO limitations and NO surgery.”

“When one of my players get injured, there is only one place that comes to mind. Azalea Orthopedics. They have a great team of doctors that works together to get my players back in the game. The thing I like most about Azalea is their team approach to injuries. After an injury everyone thinks they need surgery but very often a comprehensive treatment plan can be the answer. But if surgery is the only answer, there isn’t a place I’d rather go. With one of the largest teams of orthopedic surgeons in East Texas they always have the best game plan. They give you a lot more treatment options, and I like that.”

“I’ve been an accountant for 20 years. That’s a lot of typing. When my left wrist started to bother me I knew it couldn’t be good. I waited until it began interfering with my job and finally knew it was time to do something. I made an appointment with Azalea. I had carpal tunnel syndrome and needed surgery but I never knew it could be so quick and painless. After a couple weeks I was right back at work with no pain at all. I can’t believe I lived with pain for so long when all I had to do was visit Azalea. They really helped me and now I can’t stop telling all my friends about them.”

“I’ve always been healthy and active. But eventually the pain in my knee became more than I could stand. Something as simple as kneeling down to pick a weed could leave my knee hurting for hours. I knew I had to do something. That’s when my friend mentioned Azalea. I scheduled an appointment and they saw me the same day. I was sure I would need surgery but it turned out I just needed a specific rehab program. After two week the pain was gone and I could get back to life. Knee pain took away all my mobility and independence. The doctors at Azalea gave it all back to me.”

“Being a mechanic is sure hard on my back. It got so bad I couldn’t pick up my grandson. I just wanted to be strong again. My wife told me one of her friends went to Azalea and her experience was great. That’s when I made the call. I found out I needed surgery. After the surgery I was back in my shop in no time. The minimally invasive procedure made recovery really quick. I feel better than I have in a long time and I can even put my grandson on my shoulders now. If you’ve got back problems, go visit the experts at Azalea. I did and it made my life so much better.”
