- “I took my mother to Dr. Williams as she was having knee pain. I took her there because Dr. Williams helped me with my knee problems. My mom is 87 years old and Dr. Williams was so good with her. He was attentive and empathetic. He was not in any hurry and asked her many questions about her knees. He is great!”– Sharon L.Patient Rating:
Treating Doctor: - “Dr. Tucker provided excellent care and treatment for my cervical disk and occipital nerve pain. He administered injections that did relieve my severe pain. In the past, when I lived in another state, I did have similar injections from another physician. Dr. Tucker's advanced methods are very effective and were less stressful for me. His nurse, Tina, was very helpful in keeping me calm and comfortable. Appointments are timely and wait time is short. All office staff are accommodating and caring too. I highly recommend this practice.”– Leon W.Patient Rating:

Treating Doctor:
- “Another doctor stated that I, at the very least needed shots in my back and probably would require back surgery. I expressed my concerns about either procedure with Dr. Briseño. He said he would prefer to: 1. Diagnose it himself 2. Take less invasive tactics in the beginning 3. Start with physical therapy. Today I am pretty much pain-free, moving well, loving my new life without chronic back pain and thankful that I discovered Dr. Briseño. Thank you, Dr. Briseño! For paying attention to what I was telling you and not making a snap judgement as to what would net you the most money!”– Judy S.Patient Rating:

- “I was impressed by her background, having been an athlete in her youth. She clearly explained what she saw on my MRI, the normal treatment procedure for my particular malady and the option of returning if the treatment didn't work. My appointment was quick without me feeling that I was on an assembly line.”– Stephen M.Patient Rating:

- “Dr. Donegan has always had my best interests in mind. Walked me through every possible outcome. He has the best staff. I am on my 3rd ACL and have went back to playing softball without brace. Did ACL, ALL and medial and lateral meniscus this time. I am 2 1/2 weeks from surgery feel great and already walking without a limp. The in-house PT is great. Kathy got me back on the field in 7 months last time.”– Shane H.Patient Rating:

Treating Doctor:
- “I am 70 years of age, had complete knee replacement July 13th, 2015. I work for 7-11 and stand at least 8 hrs a day. My left knee was bone on bone for two years and the pain unbearable. Dr. Peters replaced it and I was up the next morning. Within a week, I was walking around the block. I now walk 3 miles at least 3 times a week. Can't say enough good things about him. ”– Rosalee S.Patient Rating:
Treating Doctor:
- “Dr. Fleager is an excellent doctor, her professionalism, mannerism and ability to explain your condition is what any patient will seek and she delivers on all accounts. I've visited 4 of these doctors for various reasons, they are all excellent and these are the people I will seek in the future as needed also.”– Brian B.Patient Rating:

- “I am a 79-year-old retiree and I moved to Texas from California in November 2014. For quite awhile I was experiencing severe pain in my left knee and I found Dr. Williams through my Insurance provider and decided that the pain was not going away and I needed to do something about it. I explained the symptoms and he ordered an X-ray and like my doctor in California, he said my knee was fine. I then remembered that when in 2009 I had my right hip replaced, the doctor said that my left hip would probably need replaced sometime in the future. I remembered that I had the same symptoms (right knee) pain. Dr. Williams immediately ordered X-ray of my left hip.....it was the problem. In April 2015 Dr. Williams replaced my left hip and from the time I woke up, I had NO PAIN. I was able to get out of bed that same day, using a walker, I was able to walk with no pain. Three days in the hospital, then I went home and to this day, I can walk, swim and do everything I want to do, with no pain. I am forever grateful for Dr. Williams and his staff for their care, and would highly recommend him to everyone.”– Deloyes B.Patient Rating:

Treating Doctor:
- “My hands and arms were numb and tingling Dr. Llanos left no stone unturned. He did all kinds of test and asked all kinds of questions. He felt my problem was with my muscles. I am on my way to recovery and feeling much better. So glad that he did not put a band aid on my problem. He was determined to find the cause. Thank you Dr. Llanos for your dedication to help your patients.”– Linda O.Patient Rating:

Treating Doctor:
- “When I first went to Dr. Williams, both knees were already bone-on-bone. I had always loved to walk, and had jogged for many years. Needless to say, I had difficulty just getting around. I thought walking was no longer in my future. A friend told me about Dr. Williams, and from my first appointment, I had hope again. My first knee surgery was on Oct. 25, 2014. I came through with no difficulties, and was able to return to my home and have therapy through home healthcare. My second surgery was on Jan. 12, 2015. This surgery was even better than the first. I only used a walker for two weeks' I am now walking two miles at a stretch and am able to garden! Life is good.”– Dr. Shirley E.Patient Rating:
Treating Doctor:
- “Great!!! Known him since he moved to Grapevine. I was a practicing Family MD. Started using Pat as my primary Ortho MD. My patients came back praising his office, his care and his attitude, and have continued to see him for other bone and joint problems, I think he was one of most specialist MD I used in my nearly 55 years in Grapevine”– Carlton P.Patient Rating:
Treating Doctor:
- “I was in severe pain, and Dr. Williams pushed through the surgery . . . It was a team effort, and I noticed that ALL persons involved with this surgery cared for my well being. They continued to connect with me afterwards to be sure that I was doing okay. Another thing about North Texas Orthopedics is that I was actually discharged from Dr. Williams care. Too many times the patient is returning every few months only to be told all is well. Dr. Williams recognized that "all was well with me" and now I am on my own in my own house. I walk with a walker in public, but I do not use it inside my house. Everyone I meet hears about Dr. Williams and North Texas Orthopedics.”– Hazel Q.Patient Rating:
