Dr Diamond. In providence. Awesome and great Dr bed side manner. Hard to find nowadays.
Trina H. replied:
DO NOT go to Dr Dube....worse experience ever. Me and my son both left in tears when we went. They were rude and terrible. Went to Dr. Diamond next day and they fixed my son right up which Dube's office wouldnt do. Acted like my son was faking his injury when infact Dr Diamonds office found it was fractured.

Erin M. replied:
Dr Diamond is in the same office as Dr Cox. We had Dr Diamond when my daughter broke her wrist, he was great too.
Pamela L. replied:
Been to 3 different ones. Dr. Price in Lebanon by far the best.
Edith G. replied:
Dr Roger Passmore at Centennial treated me 4 years ago. I had 2 large broken bones in my foot and a broken metatarsal with Lisfanck (sp?) tendon damage. I can walk 10-12 miles without a twinge and zero swelling. He treats only feet.
Heather I. replied:
Dr. Passmore at Advanced Ortho and Spine at summit hospital 2 nd floor suite 200. Hes a foot and ankle specialist. 885 0200.
Heather I. replied:

Elizabeth M. replied:
Dr James Eby. I am not sure he does feet. However the is an amazing Ortho. Just went to see him this morning!!

Dr. Dyer --He offices out of Skyline and the Hendersonville hospital. LOVE HIM!
Keith Y. replied:
From a person who had a severe leg / foot injury, I highly recommend Dr Willers at Elite Ortho. He has board certification as a foot ankle specialist (1 of 3 in Nashville), and gave me my mobility back. I urge you to PM me for details, as I have other comments about other doctors listed in this thread.
Marisa W. replied:
Dr. Price has an office in lebanon n Nashville... he fixed my sons broken knee cap and my other sons broken hand. Very personable and amazing staff. Well know in Mt. Juliet bc he is the dr that works closely w the MJHS football yeam
Kathy H. replied:
I work in UMC outpatient & hear & see more ortho by Dr Stephen Neely & by far more better reports than Dr Corneilus or the others. My grown son fell at ball game & hurt his shoulder. Cornelius only ordered X-Ray & told him to keep it in sling for a while. Over 2 months later it's healed but not right... Needless to say more than likely gonna become major problem.
Does anyone know of a really good Orthopedic Surgeon at Summit other than Scott Dube?
Rita M. replied:
Dr. Cook at Advanced Orthopedic Alliance
Melissa J. replied:
Dr Chris cook. He has done 2 of my surgeries. He is awesome
Jeffrey D. replied:
Dr. Novak is the best.
Ken S. replied:
Dr. KATIE SKY IS THE BEST

Sharon L. replied:
Dr Cook! He is fabulous, has a great bedside manor!
Kathy L. replied:
Drs. Novak and Reed are good. Depends on the problem.
Heather B. replied:
Dr. Novak performed minor hand surgery on me - I highly recommend him for hand/arm/shoulder!
Patsy H. replied:
Dr. Michael Ladouceur at Summit did an excellent job on my shoulder. I would highly recommend him.
Susie B. replied:
So is Dr. Petty.
Jan A. replied:
I go to Christopher Cook for my knee...don't need surgery yet, but he is really good.
Shannon N. replied:
Dr. Cook did my knee great doctor will be going back to get other knee replaced
Amy H. replied:
Dr Ladouceur!
Susan T. replied:
I'd like to add to my earlier post that Dr. Novack is a genuinely warm and nice person as well as a very talented surgeon. He even came in and talked to me and said a prayer with me before we went to the operating room. Never met a nicer doc.
Judy H. replied:
Dr Christopher Cook. Did my knee replacement.
Patsy H. replied:
When Dr. LaDouceur (at Summit) did my shoulder surgery, he said it was the worst break and torn rotator cuff injury he had ever seen. After a 6 1/2 hour surgery and faithful rehab, I have full range of motion and no pain at all. I never have any problems with my shoulder after eight years. I couldn't be more pleased with Dr. LaDouceur and Summit.
Linda H. replied:
If it isn't Dr. Petty in Lebanon, it should be be Dr. Demich at summit Dr. Petty did my knee & dr. demick my back as well as my son's back surgery. they are the best my opinion
Jasen R. replied:
Dr Kaminsky
Cindy F. replied:
Dr. Cornelius is in Lebanon and he has taken care of my daughter knee injury and we have been more than satisfied with him. His office is very convenient to get to right off of Hartmann Drive exit third exit past Mt. Juliet. Premier is the name and he is practicing with Dr Neeley.
Nancy R. replied:
Dr. Ladoucer
Lisa C. replied:
Dr. Petty is in Lebanon and also Nashville. He's great.

Mark P. replied:
Dr. Christopher Cook, he did an amazing job on my daughter's knee
Sherri V. replied:
Dr Reid at Premier. Put my husband's smashed wrist back together. He said it is the worst he has ever see . If you need a hand surgeon- they have a great one in that office as well- Dr. Novak.
Jessica C. replied:
I have used Dr. Cox at Vanderbilt as well as Dr. Diamond at the Ortho clinic Vanderbilt has here in Mt. Juliet and been very pleased with my care. I had to have surgery at Vandy and Dr. Cox was the best. I was very pleased with the entire team.

Dr Chris cook
Cheryl R. replied:
It is a knee that has been fixed once by Dr Ladouocer. A mencisus tear. Dr Dube says it needs surgery again and eventually a replacement.
Lindsay M. replied:
Dr Dube did my latest surgery and I will NEVER recommend him to anyone! Hes very rude and seems to only care about money and adding numbers to his list. Also thanks to him in 27 and need a knee replacement. I've gone to so many Dr's to fix his work and they all have told me that he Shouldve never done the surgery he did on me and it was unfixable I really hope you find someone better!!!!!!
Us M. replied:
Best docs in area..just my opinion...Burton Elrod (titans Dr), Daymon Petty in MT Juliet ( has done many pro athletes from all over the country) & Dr Christie. Elrod from my experience the others from family & friends. Dr Elrod is a super guy..very nice...compassionate ....a Christian ... Mom used Christie for a hip replacement ...loved him. Friend used Petty for shoulder. He's done ...like I said pro athletes from all over. The others mentioned I'm sure are good otherwise the people wouldn't say so. Good luck & I hope I don't offend you but I will pray for you as soon as I post this. I'm just a God loving man & believe in prayer.

Dr. Christopher Cook
Erin M. replied:
Not at Summit but I had knee surgery last yr by Dr Charles Cox, at the Mt Juliet office for Vandy ortho. Wonderful bedside manner. My daughter broke her arm last fall and we saw Dr Diamond at the same office, also great experience.
Kathy K. replied:
Dr. Dube would not be my choice. Dr. Charlie Cox and Dr. Elrod both mentioned are good picks.
Sheila T. replied:
Dr. Kaminsky did my rotator cuff! Awesome Dr! Great personality great communicator !
Nicole G. replied:
Dr. Cornelious
Dan S. replied:
Dr. Ladouceur at Advanced Orthopedic Alliance inside Summit (2 nd Floor) is good. He operated on my right arm last month and it's so much better now.
Barbara T. replied:
If you want the best on Nashville that would be Dr. Christie. He replaced both of my knees at one time. You can barely see a scar. I was seeing a Dr. At Premier Orthopedics at Summitt and he sent me to Southern Joint Replacement to Dr. Christie. He is awesome and treats you like you are the only patient he has.
Ellen M. replied:
The thing with Dr Dube, my knee that he did surgery on still hurts. But at the very end of my care, I wasn't happy with his comments. I refuse to use him again.
Karen S. replied:
We like Dr. Charles Kaelin. The whole family sees him for one thing and another.
Ellen M. replied:
The knee I had surgery on was a miniscus tear, and grade 4 arthritis. Dr Dube said eventually I would need knee replacements. My other knee has been hurting like my other knee did before surgery.
Darlene G. replied:
Dr Patel is amazing. I have sent several people to him. They all have loved him. He did hip surgery on my mom and has done several compression fractures on her back for her.
Darlene G. replied:
Dr Kaminski did our rotator cuff surgeries. Mine and my husband. He is also wonderful.
Dr. Novak for upper body.. not only is he great at his job but a great person too.. He made us all feel at peace when my Partner had his tunnel carpel surgery done.
Julie S. replied:
Dr. Cook
Cheryl R. replied:
Are there concerns about Dr Dube? My husband has gone there ..
Lily L. replied:
Dr. Kamimsky is great and my friend used Dr Downs and really liked him.
Lee S. replied:
Dr Novak did my knee. Wonderful recovery!!
Janie H. replied:
Dr. Steve Salyers, Skyline.
Beth B. replied:
Did not have a good experience with Dr. Dube when our son broke his arm. No bedside manner, ended up having to go to Vandy and have it fixed.
