William V Arnold Md's Online Review Report Card

Office staff friendly and knowledgeable

In 2018, Dr Arnold performed a failed hip replacement and created a 1 1/2 inch leg length discrepancy. It was so bad, he decided to try to correct it with another complete hip replacement surgery 12 days later. I tanked, having to be in the hospital for 11 days following that surgery. I will have to wear a lift in my shoe for life. As a former healthy athlete, this could not have been a worse outcome. My warning to you is if things go wrong, Dr Arnold and Rothman will drop you like a hot potato. I still have never gotten an explanation about what went wrong. No Orthopedic surgeon will take me on as a patient because they say that my hips are such a mess, no one wants to be responsible for another bad outcome. Beware because the next person with a mistake could be you.

The employees were very pleasant,efficient and knowledgeable. I was a bit nervous knowing I needed a hip replacement ,however once meeting with dr.Arnold I immediately felt at ease. He took the time to explain in detail the entire procedure,did not pressure me to make a hasty decision,did a thorough examination and answered all questions or concerns I had. I have complete confidence in his ability as a surgeon.

Dr Arnold is an excellent surgeon. My left knee was replaced by him 6 years ago with no complications. My right knee was replaced 18 years ago by another surgeon who had since retired. Dr Arnold sees me for yearly check ups in order to monitor the implants. He provides a complete examination and reminds me how to care for them The Rothman staff are well trained, polite and on time.

Dr. Arnold is patient and understanding. He will be doing my total hip replacement surgery next week. I have met with him several times and feel very confident that I am in good hands with him. I had been putting off this necessary surgery for a while, but since I've been under the care of Dr Arnold, I feel I can trust him to do the job.

Dr Arnold has been my Doctor for over 10 years and has done two joint replacements on me. He is excellent with his caring and compassionate bedside manner and extremely knowledgeable with his experience. He is a truly gifted surgeon who handled my surgeries with ease even though they must have been tough due to my medical conditions. Thank you for taking care of me, Dr Arnold. I have and would highly recommend Dr. Arnold. The NE Phila office is beautiful with friendly and professional staff.

Dr. Arnold would get 5 stars. Your wait time for x-rays should really be a minus 5. I had to wait for over 45 minutes for a 30 second x-ray. During that time every other person who came in after me was called back. I got extremely angry. I was so upset, I paced the length and width of your waiting area. I came close to walking out. I will tell you, if that ever happens to me again, I will find another orthopedic practice. I have always had to wait for x-rays and visits with Dr. Arnold, but yesterday was just the straw that broke the camel's back.

I’ve been going to your facility for years for my issues and I will continue to trust and refer you to all my friends and family
