Shane COLBY Leavitt's Online Review Report Card

I tore a muscle and piece of bone off in my hand. He was super fast and getting me in and setting up my MRI. I had surgery yesterday and couldn’t be more grateful. He explained everything before surgery and put my mind at ease. The nurses and staff at West Valley Hospital were awesome. Thank you Dr Leavitt

My father is medically a train wreck Dr Leavitt has been amazing we went from a horrible stage 4 wound on the ankle with the possibility of amputation to a healing wound and my father being able to walk again.

Will not recommend! Deceitful charges sent to insurance!

I had been seeing Leavitt for a torn rotator cuff. He took a conservative route and I’ve been getting injections. I asked when surgery was necessary and he told me ‘when I couldn’t handle the pain anymore.’ I have had groin pain, buttock pain and both hips click and I have almost fallen twice. I can barely get around and in constant pain. I addressed this issue with Leavitt so I had X-rays done at the office that show arthritis. Injections weren’t an option because it was impossible to access. He ordered an MRI for replacement surgery. He said he treats the patient not the x-ray/MRI. I was so relieved I was making progress in diminishing my pain. When I visited him to go over my MRI results he completely changed my diagnosis! He said he DIDN’T see arthritis and that my left hip was fine. He said I had a contusion on my right hip from a direct fall, which I never had! Even suggested my last injection caused the contusion. That was over 3 years ago! Said repeat MRI in 6 months. Nope!

Last week I’m getting X-rays and and MRI on my hips to clear me for surgery. Today, Dr. Leavitt completely changed my diagnosis and the possibility of surgery. I’m completely dumbfounded and disappointed. He dismissed me because of my medical history. Now I certainly don’t want a doctor who doesn’t have the skills to operate on me. Dr. Leavitt, I hope you see this. Just last week I thanked you through ...

It was easy to make an appointment to see me and than to schedule the surgery on may closed fracture of my right radius . Doctor offered me two options and helped me to understand which he thought is the best one for me. I chose the surgery and Dr. Leavitt did it professi0nally . He is a great orthopedic surgeon, friendly and I highly recommend him.

I am a patient in Caldwell, Idaho. I have had one shoulder repair and am scheduled for a replacement on the other on. I am very satisfied with thw results. Dr. Leavitt is a great guy and suergon , I highly recommend him. As part of my recovery I used a Water Therapy machine provided by SCORE . I was able to take very few pain pills as the therapy machine more than helped control my pain.

I was a patient of Dr. Leavitt’s & his PAC “Peter.” They performed Bilateral TKR surgery on me in Washington state. I’ve had so much trouble with both replacements due to Condylar offset, a placement problem that inhibits flexion. Last summer, my current Orthopedic Surgeon successfully did a revision of L knee & it’s wonderful now. But I’m wearing a big brace on R knee until I can get it fixed because I’ve fallen several times from instability.

I had a significant problem following knee replacement surgery. Prior to surgery, S Leavitt was very engaging, caring, and compassionate. After surgery when I went to him several times with a concern, he barley would make eye contact and denied there could be anything wrong without doing a complete exam on my hip and knee.

I had surgery on my broken Ankle yesterday Jan 13th, 2022, my first surgery ever. I was VERY nervous. Dr Leavitt and the whole crew at West Valley Hospital were The Best! Everything went as they told me it would, all very courteous and professional, and I couldn't have felt any more comfortable! They ALL did an excellent job!! THANK-YOU!!
