Scott M. Schulze's Online Review Report Card

While I wish I had read these reviews prior to my appointment I am glad that they were read after I met with Dr. Schulze. I now realize that my negative experience was not personal, rather a reflection on a subpar physician. I went in as the flexion in my right wrist is approximately 20 degrees. He took x-rays then informed me that with surgery I might be able to get it to about 30 degrees. Other than that, the only thing that could be done is steroid injections if I got an MRI…. It is interesting to note, a friend who is healer in non-medicinal treatment modalities, comfortably got the extension to about 40 degrees during one ten minute session. Looks like I will be looking for a physician who did not get their degree out of a cracker jack box…. Oh, his bedside manner is horrible. I am an RN, I work full time in healthcare. In my experience I have worked alongside many great doctors. He is someone who is cold and impatient with a great need for a brush up on being a nice human/MD

Had surgery on both wrists. Surgeries were flawless and my problem has been corrected. Dr Schulze explained the procedure before the surgery in terms I could understand. Office staff was pleasant and my wait was minimal.

I have seen Dr Schulze three times: trigger finger and both carpal tunnel surgeries. I felt that he was caring and competent. He is indeed one of my favorite doctors and would highly recommend him to people in need of a hand specialist.

I went to him with a fractured wrist. Worst experience with a health care provider. Cocky and arrogant are the best words to describe him. He was not interested in my concerns. He did not look at me. He rolled his eyes and looked down at the floor when my daughter asked questions. My daughter is an experienced PT and it was obvious he did like the questions asked. Staff is cold and not compassionate. My visit was not worth my time. I decided to go to PA to a shoulder to hand specialist. Southern Delaware needs adequate and better healthcare organizations.

Dr. Schulze operated on my right wrist after I totaled my car. I had both of hands bandaged, a neck brace, & a severe concussion. My first meeting with him felt cold. I was overwhelmed, scared & I cried. However, I stuck with him because what’s most important when selecting a surgeon is knowledge & skill. Dr. Schulze knows what he’s doing. I could tell he’s an expert in his field. His nurses were all very professional & lovely. Surgery went well. When I met with him after my operation I was impressed because he remembered photography means the world to me- I honestly could never tell if he was listening to me. It touched my heart that he did in fact remember me sharing how photography is my passion. After my surgery he just about gently smiled & told me I can get back out there with my camera. He does listen & he does care! Most importantly, my right wrist is back in action.

Very Rude and Disrespectful of his patient's. I fired him.

I had something growing in my left thumb, I had been to 2 orthopedics who had no clue of what they were doing. I found Dr. Schulze and made an appointment he was concerned and understanding, he took time to show me my MRI and what was in my thumb and explained everything to me. We decided surgery was best and on June 2,2021 he operated on my thumb and it’s much better now, he removed a giant cell tumor which he had told me that’s what it was. He is a wonderful doctor and I couldn’t have been in better care.

Dr. Schulze is caring, direct, listens and communicates well. He tried less aggressive measures before entertaining surgery. Once we determined surgery or living with this pain were my two options, he explained the procedure and made sure I understood it. I'm going into this procedure 100% confident in Dr. Schulze and his ability to provide a positive outcome.
