Dr. Brian A. Chalkin, DO

I am a singer, a panist and music educator. I fell and it resulted in a severe fracture of my distal radius-- left. I told Dr. Chalkin that I HAD TO BE ABLE TO PLAY AGAIN. He told me he would do his best and that there could be lasting problems. But he was confident and I felt that I trusted him. What else could I do? I approached the whole ordeal with a one-day-at-a-time process. He was personable each time I saw him,as was his assistant Bryan. I felt they were on top of my situation- I was prescribed some simple exercise t first while in a cast for 6 wks(!). I began slowly using my hand while teaching voice lessons and after my physical therapy was completed (3 mo.) and w/my persistent and gradual exercise at the piano and practicing of scales, stretching, playing third and octaves -- my left hand and wrist grew stronger. And in fact, the hand and wrist is strongrr & better than it was before my accident ! Amazing. Just a little stiffness from time to time. This is no small feat ! As for all the fine motor and eye/ hand coordination required for skillful playing -- I am not handicapped at all. It is a new challenge and daily joy to make music. This doctor is a blessing and as long as I play my JS Bach, L.Beethoven and jazz, I will think of this wonderful doctor and how he saved my life from tragedy. Xxooxx thank you Brian Chalkin !!

Dr. Chalkin did a radial head replacement on my son. We have been more than pleased with every aspect of care received from Dr. Chalkin. He has been excellent in explaining everything every step of the way. He is compassionate, attentive and accessible. The surgery he performed on my son has made a big difference in the use of his arm. We appreciate everything he has done!

We could not be more pleased with the care Dr. Chalkin, Mr. Graham and Mrs. Loudex have given to our son. We are immensely blessed to have been referred to their office. Dr. Chalkins' expertise is phenomenal. His staff is kind, cooperative and supportive. We couldn't be more pleased with the outcome of our son's process. They truly have changed our lives for the better. Thank you so much for impacting our son's future in such a positive way. We are forever grateful.

Did a good job. But took over month to get surgery done. but was well pleased with his work.

I RECEIVED NO INSTRUCTIONS, NO RETURN APPOINTMENT, NO REHAB. PROCEDURES BEFORE OR AFTER SURGERY I

Don't let Chalkin do a shoulder replacement on you!! He put in TOO LARGE of a ball joint (plus the most obsolete model he could find) and it destroyed the inside of my shoulder!! The ball he put in, not only came up THROUGH the front of the rotator cuff but it ate my Glenoid!! By the time I got another surgeon to fix me (after an extremely painful 4 1/2 years) there was barely enough left of the glenoid to attach the new part to!!

I love dr Chaklin bc he is great surgeron and Great guy in the office listens and understanding dr when it comes to Othro hand and shoulder and everything

dr was totally through with me after surgery, 2 months from surgery , still having severe, debilitating pain, unable to use hand. getting no help from dr.

After 3 unsuccessful elbow surgeries at Tulsa B&J clinic we decided to try Dr. Chalken. After one try and 4years later my elbow is still doing as well as can be expected, after all I am 53 years old and arthritis is creeping in. Bottom line is I wished I'd gone to him in the first place #Rockstar Doctor

I had to wait, about 2hours. It was worth the wait. He diagnosed my problem in 5 min. He explained my options, and possible out comes. After an injection, I walked out better than I came in.

This doctor is amazing! I can't say enough good things about him. I was recommended to him by a friend. I'm so glad I got to see him. I've been twice and he is not only professional, he is kind, and clearly cares about his patients. I know it is a wait to get in to see him and sometimes they overload him with patients, but that's not his fault. He is in DEMAND! And he is worth it.

My son had a broken Scaphoid on his right wrist. Dr. Chalkin not only fixed it with a bone graft, My son healed in half of the expected time! Best Doctor for hands in the United States!

Excellent doctor, compassionate & interested in your well being

Genuine concern for his patients

Dr. Chalkin is a great ortho doctor, saw him on two separate occasions with my young son. He and his staff are great with kids and he was able to set his arm in the office and avoid surgery! I was a very great full momma!

My arm was broken severly. Dr Chalkin put it all back together. And I can use my arm!! Very Thankful

Dr Chalkin was very courteous. Explained the choices and what he would be doing. He did a gret job and I am 100% better. I have been to him twice.

Refused contact with physical therapist which thereby affected my rehab. Nurses treated me like dirt. PA in office which was my only contact has the worst bedside manner I've ever encountered.

I went to Dr. Chalkin after an accident had severely damaged the first joint of a finger. The ER doctor advised that there was nothing that she could do and said that a hand specialist would need to amputate that joint. Upon that first visit, Dr. Chalkin offered me another option. He advised that he could do a procedure where a flap from a healthy finger could be done which would allow the injured finger to heal. I was willing to try and after just 8 weeks, I am proud to say that it worked! Dr. Chalkin was encouraging, positive, and most helpful. As far as the wait in the office, I scheduled the early appointments, and had no problems. I would recommend Dr. Chalkin highly.

The wait time was beyond ridiculous. My appointment was 11:00. I was asked to arrive a bit early which I did. I sat in the waiting room until 12:00 at which point I was taken back to an exam room. I was asked some questions then taken for an xray on my hand. I then returned to the exam room where I waited for another hour. In total I waited for over 2 hours to see the Doctor. In this time not a single person apoligized for my long wait. Then when Dr. Chaulkin arrived in the room, he apologized for my wait. He told me to make my next appointment for 7 am or 5 pm. I made my next one for 5 pm. I arrived at 4:50. I was informed the doctor was running about an hour behind. If I was running that late I would be expected to call and reschedule. I took unpaid time off from my job for these appointments. The office should call if the doctor is running that late. Then the patients can come to the office closer to the time the doctor is able to see them. I think that making a person wait this long is unacceptable.
