Shelby Jarrell's Online Review Report Card

The first time I saw him he argued about where I was experencing pain and when I tried to correct him, he seemed nonplussed. I got the overall feeling he had little interest in my situation at all. The next time I saw him, he hadn't reviewed ANY of the the PT notes after he had me attend PT for over a month, where my pain had dramatically worsened. The last time I saw him, he simply reiterated many times that they can't really help me. I've never experienced a Dr who seems so uninterested in answering questions, or getting to the root of a problem. I felt he was indifferent and quite uncaring. He always seemed like he couldn't wait to get you out of the office .

I was a scheduled w/ Dr. Jarrell for a second opinion since the first doc I saw diagnosed me with a mild sprain & sent me home. I didn’t mind to have the first doctor re-evaluate but that is how the scheduling was arranged. After a few minutes and again without any arm palpitation of the painful area; he says: “I agree with the other doctor.” You could physically see that my arm looked unusual & he said each arm can look different. I was sent to PT. The DPT gave me more info than the doctor did! He could see that part of my arm was atrophied and could tell this ws no minor sprain. At MRI appt. I tried to tell the doctor to read the notes from the PT & he ignored me. Said I only had fraying when it turns out that my MRI says I had second degree tears in the radiology notes. I went to months of PT & still can’t do my everyday lifting, have pain daily, & can’t exercise like before or carry my baby. My massage therapist helped me more and could feel just how bad my arm was and still is

I had a great experience during both of my visits. He was patient and informative. I have already told some of my friends how spot on he is.

Dr. Jarrell performed resection arthroplasty on both of my shoulders, one year apart. Dr Jarrell spent plenty of time explaining non-surgical and surgical options. We tried a couple of non-surgical options before I decided to have surgery. I am 100% please with the outcome of both surgeries and I have no more pain in the AC joint or anywhere in my shoulders. I highly recommend Dr. Jarrell.

I just visited this Dr. two days ago. I am going out of my way to write this review because it was a terrible experience. He spent the few minutes he had with me yawnning the entire time. I'm not sure he ever made eye contact. Was very dry and did not offer much of a possible solution or what the issue might be. After only a few minutes he just said "let's get an MRI and I'll see you next week. Well first of all he must not be aware that his MRI facility is backed up for a month, something the Dr. should be aware of when he wants to see you back the following week. It was obvious he was there to just do routine checks and no more, didn't care. He did share he has an 18 month old at home which I guess was to explain his continuous yawning. I have canceled my follow up appt. and plan to pick up my X-rays and go see a real Dr.

There are better Doctors out there

Dr. Shelby Jarrell did my wrist surgery (distal radius fracture) and everything he did was "picture-perfect." He is very meticulouos and very much a perfectionist with my surgical procedure. He is very down to business, through, easy to communicate with and I really appreciate his professionalism and attention to every detail. Great result and I highly recommend this truly gifted surgeon.

I was in serious pain and while answering his questions he kept Yawning And turning his back to me. It was really like he didn’t care. I see why he has such low ratings. Very rude!

Works with you

Everyone cant be wrong. This doctor is a disaster.
