Dr. James Reid, MD

Very happy with Dr. Reid and the quality of his work. His assistant, Sky, is amazing. Can always count on things going smoothly.

I had a good visit. I liked Dr. Reid a lot.

I had surgery performed by Dr. Reid on my left hand in August 2021. The procedure went very well. Cornerstone Orthopedics has an excellent and courteous professional staff. I came back when I developed the same medical condition on my right hand. I consider Dr. Reid to be an outstanding Surgeon who I highly recommend. Thank you Cornerstone Orthopedics and Dr. Reid for an outstanding job.

Dr Reid is very knowledgeable and skilled as a surgeon. He fixed my arthritic wrist without metal joint implants and gave me information so I could choose minimal but effective anesthesia and pain meds. He explained his procedure clearly and answered any questions I had. I appreciated his care for me as a patient and person. I also appreciated his willingness to fit my surgery into the end of the year amid my busy travel schedule. I would definitely recommend Dr Reid.

I will start off by saying this is a very frustrating practice. It is nearly impossible to get an appointment; took me two weeks to finally get into see Dr. Reid. I was very disappointed in his bedside manner, he does not listen and constantly interrupts. He wants to tell you stories about himself rather than listen to you. I would recommend searching for a different surgeon. He can also be incredibly sarcastic and can make you feel demeaned.

I cant stress enough that Dr Reid does not have a calming bedside manner. He did not invoke confidence in his abilities as a surgeon nor did he show the patient any confidence in his ability to recover from the injury. He did not notify the patient immediately when he decided to drop him as a patient, despite numerous attempts to contact him via phone. He waited a week and a half to notify him via snail mail and, due to the holidays, subsequently caused the patient a major delay in finding a new surgeon. This caused further injury and almost certainly caused the patient to completely lose the use of his dominant hand as a result. Thanks a lot Dr. Reid! Expect to be sued for malpractice!

Dr Reid is very knowledgeable and has a calming bedside manner. He answers all questions gives helpful information regarding what steps to take in your recovery. He evidences strong expertise in his specialty. He also shows great effort to comply with a patient’s scheduling needs.

Dr Reid has been caring for my daughter's hand since a burn when she was 6. Now 12 he always talks with her and includes her in her plan for her hand. Very greatful for her full function of her hand.

Dr Reid was very clear about my diagnosis and treatment plan. I like his no-nonsense style and explanations. I felt confident he would take care of my condition

Dr. Reid is very straightforward about treatment options and letting you decide what you prefer.

I've known and been treated by Dr. Reid for close to 15 years. I have osteoarthritis in both hands and we initially injected orthovisc into my thumb joints to provide some cushioning and pain relief, I didn't want surgery yet. Helped for about 3 or so years, then we discussed the surgical intervention needed for longterm use of my thumbs/hands. Having a healthcare background, I research my providers. Dr Reid is by far and away the only hand surgeon I would want operating on my hands. Totally trust his skills and advice. Excellent surgeon. Communicates well and answers all of your questions and addresses expectations for surgical outcomes. Has operated on others I know as well, all good outcomes. Would not go elsewhere.

This was the third time in 6 years that I have been to Dr Reid for trigger thumbs and trigger fingers. He was very friendly and helpful each visit and I will continue to seek out Dr Reid and Conerstone for all of my orthopedic related needs.

I saw Dr Reid for an osteoarthritis issue with my thumb /hand. After a review of my symptoms , X-rays and prior treatments he recommended surgery. From our discussion I feel comfortable and confident that I will have a successful outcome.

Very good doctor, great staff, immediate surgery. Flat Irons Surgery Center also had a wonderful. (Needed stronger pain relief first night is my only concern. Hopeful to have that addressed tonight or morning

This was another visit to check on the progress of the surgery on my fingers that Dr. Reid performed in February. Dr. Reid is a compassionate and welcoming doctor who has looked after me for many years. I would recommend him to anyone who has a problem with their hands

Very trustworthy

Respectfully treated from entering office to leaving. Thorough discussion and exam including X-rays. Quick scheduling for procedure required plus Dr Reid’s commitment to support and resolve post issues should they arise Repeat patient of major surgery Thanks

Dr. Reed put me at ease immediately. He shared his knowledge and I felt very confident about following through with my procedure. I also liked his sense of humor. I would highly recommend him.

My visit went very well. I was informed what the problem was on my hand and what procedure would be necessary to fix the problem. The office staff was wonderful and very professional. Dr. Reid was very patient snd explain everything that would be happening. Would highly recommend him.

No wait to be seen, but waiting g room was empty, except for 1 person. Dr. Reid was very focused on 1 issue, which was, 1 finger with very advanced arthritis. Yes, that was initial concern, becoming hard to function, but all fingers were progressing at the 1st joint very rapidly. I wanted to know what my choices were, if there were any options, on the overall picture. Surgery on the worst finger was only option given to me. He did not want to address 2 worst fingers, surgery at same time, since progression was happening so quickly. Just wanted to know, since 8 fingers were progressing quickly, this way, was I suppose to come in 8 times for surgery, if that's the only fix, for this problem or what was future outlook. I accepted his answer. Point is, I felt very clearly, my appt time was up, I didn't have time to talk any more, so I just stopped. If this is destiny for all 8 fingers, doesn't see right to pay 8 co-pays, for council on same probem.
