List of William D Bruce's Reviews
Excellent excellent surgeon..and an even finer human being
This was my second knee surgery my original Doctor didnt take my insurance anymore so I found Dr. Bruce I thank God I did. He explained everything to me so clearly even without me asking him to. Very nice listened to any concerns or questions I had. Love Dr Bruce
I waited over 2hrs when I finally decided to leave I was met with a level of sarcasm and a sense of entitlement from Dr. Bruce that is difficult to explain. He may be a competent doctor but it is difficult to say when the physician never comes in to see you and gives you a hard time for leaving. He told me It is not like have been out playing golf Honestly I would have rather him be out playing golf my wait would have been more justified. Form what I can tell he was sitting at the nurses station unconcerned with my presence. If you are looking for a concerned doctor who values your time look elsewhere.
Ive had to go to Dr. Bruce multiple times over the years because I cant seem to sit still long enough to stop breaking things. He is awesome I cant say enough good things about him. He takes the time to explain exactly what is going on. He is super personable and jokes around but he is also straight forward and tells you your options. It is difficult at times to get in to see him but well worth it if you can. Excellent surgeon with excellent bedside manner. Highly recommend.
From the staff to Dr. Bruce himself my mother was treated dismissively and patronized. It was evident they viewed her as just a stupid old woman not worth their time. She was given no instructions on how to treat her injured knee and just ushered out the door since it was mostly arthritis desite the MRI showing three ligament tears. I am furious at the way she was treated at this office and she will be getting a second opinion from someone more competent and compassionate.
Over a 2 hour wait If he cant keep his appt close to being on time. His pt load needs to be cut
Been patient for over a yr. He is very down to earth and kind
He is an exceptional Doctor and he has very courteous staff.
Beware of making an appointment with Dr. David Bruce if youre looking for a second opinion. My wife sat in the waiting room for 112 hours only to be turned away because she was told Dr. Bruce doesnt do exams for second opinions. He wasnt man enough to tell my wife facetoface. One of his nurses had to do it for him. I can truly say its a good thing I wasnt there.
I have been going to Dr.Bruce for 10 years he has performed several surgeries on me. I would recommend him to any everyone. Im forever grateful for the help he has given me. GREAT doctor. He never fails to spend time explaining issues has great bedside manner. He is also not one to jump the gun on surgery but instead try other options therapies before having to do surgery. Chattanooga is blessed to have him
