Dr. James Edward Stanislaw, MD

Over 3 weeks ago I called EmergeOrtho in Lenoir, to make an appointment for severe pain in my hip, with Dr. Stanislaw (whom I had seen before as a patient). The girl told me I would need to bring in any imaging and/or reports for him to look at, before they would make an appointment. I had other facilities mail my MRI and Bone Scan cd’s, along with all reports, put them in a clasp envelope addressed to Dr. Stanislaw from me, including my phone number and birth date, and dropped them off in Lenoir 2 weeks ago. I explained what it was for to the girl at the counter, and she said she’d give it to Dr. Stanislaw. I never heard anything else from them. I went down the mountain today to Lenoir, to pick up my packet, since I need to get something done, and they obviously did not want to help me. I told the girl at the counter who I was, and said I wanted my records back if they weren’t going to help me. It took her over 10 minutes to find my envelope containing my records, still unopened. She told me the reason it was never looked at for the past 2 weeks, is because it had no instructions on it, and they didn’t know what to do with it. Are you kidding me??? Why couldn’t they call me, as my number was on the envelope, if this was the problem? Are they really that mentally deficient in this office? Is this all the better they take care of someone’s medical records, seeing how it took over 10 minutes to find them. I once held Dr. Stanislaw in high regard, but will NEVER be back to him, or EmergeOrtho, due to this incident, and will seek medical care elsewhere, at a place that is serious about caring for their patients, and not making excuses.

I understand that this is surgeons office; the staff from check in to check out were extremely helpful and some were very knowledgeable. However, the surgeon was very late, very short and gave me the perception my knee pain was not a problem. I have since (in 2 weeks time) gotten a second opinion and a MRI. I am scheduled for a knee cartilage clean out in 7 days. Please, always seek a second opinion if you are not happy or satisfied. I am so glad I did

Excellent surgeon . Fantastic results from my hip surgery .

extremely pleased with the whole visit from check in to check out. I was very impressed with the staff that took me into my room. The ladies were extremely helpful and pleasant. Was very happy with Dr> Stanislaw he took a great deal of time to educate me and he provided several options in helping with my knee pain. I would definitely recommend him for any bone problem

Dr came into appointment unprepared. Hadn't reviewed my new patient paperwork, family history, symptoms, recent xray or MRI. He was ready to dismiss me within 15 seconds. He wanted to tell me my symptoms and talked over me when I tried to speak. He told me nothing was structurally wrong and I had no buisness seeing a surgeon. I switched to his colleague, who ended up doing surgery for multiple structural issues. If you want to waste you time and money for a real problem and be made to feel inferior, this is the Dr for you!

I visited this guy hoping he could help. After several appointments, injections, physical therapy, and finally surgery, my joint is no better than when we began. He likes using terminology to make it seem he knows what he’s doing, but he obviously doesn’t. Couple years later, I ended up having surgery for the same issue in a neighboring town and now feel and function good as new. Unbelievable the difference between a doctor who knows his profession and one who thinks he is the profession. Avoid at all costs!

If you’re a married woman and interested in a fling with an overweight and balding narcissist, ole JS is your doc!

This guy is the biggest narcissist that ever lived!

From the radiologist, my primary care doctor and a friend of mine I had heard only good. He and his staff were well read on my problems in my first visit. He was really kind and asked me what can I do for you to help make you more comfortable. I am receiving gel shots in my left knee and on the 12th I will a complete knee replacement, ligaments, and none correction. His staff, image staff, PA Jeffery Price and Dr Stanislaw have when above beyond in preparation for my surgery. It has become the norm for PA's to do most of the hospital stay coverage. What I really liked is that PA Price will be first assistant in the OR. I will update after my surgery, but as of today Feb. 3, 2018, I give Dr Stanislaw an excellent mark.

Dishonest.

The one visit I had with Dr. Stanislaw soured me on ever going back to him for any kind of medical visit. He was completely rude, better yet a JERK, to not only me, but his nurses/staff as well. After that day I asked around and apparently I'm not the only one who feels this way about him. Do not recommend AT ALL!!!

he likes telling how good he is . after surgery . you don't see him any more, all ways a pa. did not fix my problem.

Please get a second opinion!

He was not friendly or courteous. Had a blunt manner and seem to be very aloof.

After seeing doctor at Urgent Care and then talking to my internist, I was finally sent here. I was originally told they didn't know if it was gout or sepsis in the wrist. Being diabetic, I was particularly concerned with the idea of infection in the joint. No one seemed to agree on what it was and blood tests were inconclusive. Dr. Stanislav did answer my questions and reassured me that there was no indication of infection in the joint but to call if things changed. He seemed to agree with the first doctor who said it was a acute gout and said I had done the right things over the weekend to help it calm down. He not only made me feel better about myself but about the different diagnosis I had been getting. I have been to other ortho guys with way less personality! I know nothing about his surgical skills and hopefully will never need to know but I thought he was fine.

He really is a special caring doctor that explains everything in detail to you. He welcomes questions and his patience being informed of their medical needs.He is up on all the newest medical advances and has a wonderful way with his patience that have awhite coat syndrome like I do. I leave feeling that I was not rushed with my visit and he cared about making me feel better, and he did. I would recommend him very highly.My husband really likes him as well. He did knee surgery on him and he found a break that anothr doctor missed and is being treated for it. We both have been vry pleased with the doctor.
