Jeff E Schulman's Online Review Report Card

قبل سنة Such an incredibly kind friendly doctor. And I really felt he what he was talking about, and could translate it so well, that even I could understand. Even better, he takes the time not only to listen but he gave sincere advise from his experience with his dad who had the same issues i have regard my knees.. no words can explain this is it us such an excellen service he provided for each time I come he calls back provided photos send email and offer moreregar. Or x ray more he provided me photos and explained everything, while looking at my MRI with me. He even went through each layer of my leg, front to back, to show the integrity of everything else, and why surgery was not recommended. Then proceeded to recommended me for physical therapy instead, and even came back after I'd been fitted for my brace, to answer additional questions. Most doctors will claim to be too busy, and his schedule was incredibly full, as is the case with most professionals good at what they do. But, he made sure I felt like I was his only patient for the day when I was with him. Which is so incredibly rare. And eased all my concerns, and was so extremely patient, on top of everything

The office visit itself was most notable by the fact the doctor spent less than 5 minutes in the room with us and left so fast, you could feel the breeze. When I attempted to ask a question, he fast talked right over me. Inova Urgent Care had diagnosed my daughter’s partial wrist fracture a few days before and he did not see the need for a cast, leaving him little to do and we assumed he needed to get on to the next patient. He sent in a third party vendor to put a brace on my daughter, which we paid for separately, and on the way out were told to pay a $10 co-pay. We thought that was the end of it until we received a bill for $1132.99, after insurance adjustments and co-pay, the balance due was $444.68. We thought certainly there was a mistake and I notified the office, who sent me to billing, who then told me they would investigate and get back in touch with me. Today we received an updated invoice from Inova with the entire visit removed. We were happy with this… until we received a letter from their collections agency for the disputed amount! Is this the way Inova and this doctor handles things? You ask a question about a bill because a charge seems to ludicrous and their response is to send it over to collections rather than respond to a question asked in good faith? It might be worth mentioning we have been customers of Inova for almost two decades and always pay our bills. Something is clearly rotten with this doctor and this practice.

I took my mother in for a consult on a femur related stress fracture on both legs induced by a side effect from an osteoporosis drug. The fractures were relatively small. I provided three stars because our appointment was timely and professional. However, I was not convinced on the credibility of his assessment I understand Doctors have pressures to protect themselves against claims, so they lean towards what is safer for them. In this case, I felt he was attempting to sell us on surgery to avoid the possibility of imminent completion of the fractures since there was one on each leg. It's a scary thought. His resident assistant was very straightforward with us before he came in and stated bones just needed compression to heal and walking was a good idea. Dr. Schulman may be a good surgeon but I would question how many people actually need preventive surgery. Most people just put faith in a doctor like they would God, but I prefer common sense. I even looked into a drug called Forteo to reverse the bad effects of the bisphosphonate drug to help heal the fracture, but again, I felt that there was a chance that her body could heal naturally and preferred not to use one man-made chemical to fix another. For those that may have a similar situation and are contemplating the need for surgery, know that we beat the system. This may not be a solution for you, but a case study worth considering. I had my elderly mother on a strict physical exercise and diet regimen for 2 months. I basically had her walk by pushing a wheel chair along with her assistant, beginning with 10 minutes a day and doubling the time each week thereafter for a maximum of 45 minutes of walking by the end of the month. I also asked her to do leg lifts sitting down starting with 10 on each leg and increasing to 30 on each leg by the end of the month. The assistant was required to massage her both legs for blood flow after exercise daily. Her diet was limited to non-inflammatory vegetarian food that was low in sodium and sugars and included natural calcium through food and a vitamin D3 supplement of 1000iu daily. She lost 15 pounds, increased muscle mass, and healed both fractures one hundred percent during within two months. This was confirmed by follow up xrays. Perhaps we were lucky, but I suspect it was common sense that gave us success.

Such an incredibly kind doctor. And I really felt he what he was talking about, and could translate it so well, that even I could understand. Even better, he takes the time to listen. I tore my LCL, and he explained in granular detail everything, while looking at my MRI with me. He even went through each layer of my leg, front to back, to show the integrity of everything else, and why surgery was not recommended. Then proceeded to recommended me for physical therapy instead, and even came back after I'd been fitted for my brace, to answer additional questions. Most doctors will claim to be too busy, and his schedule was incredibly full, as is the case with most professionals good at what they do. But, he made sure I felt like I was his only patient for the day when I was with him. Which is so incredibly rare. And eased all my concerns, and was so extremely patient, on top of everything else.

Dr Jeff Schulman was extremely helpful, he sat down and walked me through my issues very precisely. Thank you for actually taking the time to sit down and help your patients, much appreciated.

Dr. Schulman is an incredible doctor and surgeon. He put my hip back together when another surgeon told me I needed a replacement. I am back to running marathons without pain.

Dr. Schulman gave me a new titanium femur in a trauma situation at Fairfax hospital as well as determining many of my other fractures to be inoperable. While I have no recollection of the initial consult and surgery my family has said he was great. I can attest to the wonderful follow up care I received with him emailing me addressing concerns in between office visits. I’m thankful he was on call the day I was flown in.
