Your trust is our top concern.

We strive to keep reviews honest, trustworthy, and fair.

Doctors can not pay for good reviews, nor can they pay to have negative reviews removed.

We monitor all reviews to ensure they comply with our guidelines and don’t include personal information, profanity, libel, defamation, harassment, obscenity or fraud.

Any reviews that are deemed fraudulent or violate our guidelines will be removed immediately.

All reviews are confirmed and audited before publication, and community members have the ability to flag inappropriate content for further review by our team.

Dr Catlett is an excellent.
Dr Catlett take the time to listen and provides care options. He cares about his patients and explains in great detail. I would highly recommend him to anyone with a knee injury.

Repaired others mistake
I trust Dr Catlett. In 2014 I had a hip replacement and another doctor broke my femur during the surgery. I had additional Hardware and wires put in holding my femur together. While other doctors wanted to redo the entire hip replacement Dr Catlett only removed the excess Hardware in a much less intensive surgery. The office is run efficiently and I'm usually taking back within 5 minutes of my appointment time. I have and will continue to recommend Dr Catlett for hip and knee procedures.

Amazing Dr for hip and knee issues.
Dr Catlett did my left total hip replacement revision in June 2022 after the original THR in march 2022 (done by another Dr) was problematic. After two hip dislocations, I was very apprehensive about the revision being the solution to the issue. Dr Catlett took his time during the surgery to guarantee that my hip was solid and had almost no chance of ever dislocating again. I completely trust his judgement and am now seeing him for a possible right THR. Dr Catlett takes his time and gathers all the needed info to make a proper diagnosis instead of rushing into a solution. He uses advanced techniques and the follow up care was superb. I have and will continue to recommend him to family and friends for hip and knee issues.

Amazing communication
It's never easy to hear that you can't be fixed yet. Dr Catlett explained everything and answered all of my questions. Very personable. After a horrific consultation with Scott and White I had lost hope and lost faith in the medical field. Dr Catlett has renewed that faith and I look forward to working with him further.

Very good experience here
Dr Catlett is the best. He knows absolutely everything about knee replacement. When I was going in to surgery all the associates said I coul not have a better doctor he was the best. Surgery went very well and recovery was as painless as possible. Couldn’t have asked for a more caring doctor. I now have a new life where I can walk without pain. When I have the other knee done I will definitely go back to Dr. Catlett.

Bicycle crash Hip pain
Dr. Catlett took a lot of time for my exam and detailed questions on exact pain, discomfort, and mobility limitations and was very confident I didn’t need any surgical procedures Just rest and easy rehab. It is rare to find orthopedic doctors that are not quick to surgical remedies!!

Best knee doctor
Dr. Catlett performed my knee replacement. He is the best doctor! Had a great experience! I actually saw Dr. Catlett at every appointment before and after the surgery. He even sat down with me 2 weeks before the surgery to explain the surgery, and what I should expect. He always answered all my questions at every appointment, and never seemed in a hurry! I just can’t say enough positive things about him. His PA is also great!

Total Success
Dr Catlett performed a total knee replacement which I reluctantly submitted to when bone on bone pain became too much. Results prove everything and though as a 70 year old ex athlete my recovery was a bit slow, the final result was a pain free and totally repaired right knee. Dr Catlett was thoroughly professional, careful, and explained the process beginning to end. TKR is not a walk in the park but I ended up with right doc and a perfect result. I am grateful.

Dr. Catlett Jr. Orthopedic Surgeon & Doctor
Dr. Catlett performed a tibial plateau fracture repair on my right knee last year. Intelligent decisions along with Impeccable treatment and outstanding surgical outcome from him made everything much easier. Throughout this journey I realized Dr. Catlett has every skill needed to lift up his patients in a very personable way. He is a great listener and doesn’t dismiss any concerns I’ve ever had. Top notch in my opinion.

Caring surgeon
Dr. Catlett is wonderful doctor that thoroughly listens and considers his patients quality of life. He was the first doctor to give me alternatives to living in pain. Before surgery, he explained in detail what was going to happen and made me feel confident in the process. Surgery went as expected with no complications. Follow up was easy and he made sure to help set me up with pt. I have already recommended him to a friend.

Hurting knees
Dr. Catlett takes the time to listen to my concerns. I have been seeing him a little over a year. He has been wonderful knowing that I live a very busy travel life at 70 and is willing to keep working with me to keep me going until I slow down to have a knee replacement. He is very professional and knowledgeable and I trust him completely. It’s refreshing to have such a really great doctor who listens and works with you. His staff is some of the best!
