Dr Weldon is amazing. His moving away from UT is a godsend for both of us. Very happy to see a talented surgeon break free from oppression. I was 100% a UT patient. My late wife, who was a nurse at the Bellaire clinic was an employee. Given how horrible your customer service has become, your providers don't stay and well I am tired of what has become basic quality healthcare from UT. Dr Weldon leaving means I am finally 100% divorced from you! NO MORE UT DOCS EVER!!!
Excellent
I feel very blessed that Dr. Weldon was on duty the Sunday. I need my fractured hip repaired.
I am so thankful for Dr. Weldon's commitment to the care of his patients and his amazing expertise and gifting to give hope to those who come to him for care. I will be forever thankful.
Dr Weldon has been so helpful during time before, during and after both shoulder surgery's
I trust this provider with my recovery and that's the most important thing.
He is a very professional doctor. He masters and loves his job. For me, it was the greatest blessing to have surgery with him. I congratulate him and his professional team.
Dr. Weldon , is a great doctor.
It has been good experience overall !!
Really appreciate Dr Weldon and his office. My only little concern is how long you wait once you get into exam room. They tell you a few minutes then it's almost an hour?
I will only this surgeon for my needs in his specialty.
Dr. Weldon is a great doctor and surgeon, has helped my daughter and I with injuries. I hope he can see my wife next for her knee injury. Thank you.
I don't think anyone walks me through a shot as well and Dr Weldon and Dr Stafford do. I feel confident that they have my best interest in mind
very enjoyable expe
The front staff was amazing, the nurse a little distant and standoff ish, The provider completely rude, how he spoke in a manner as if I was a child. Not happy at this visit and won't be returning.
Unprofessional. Weldon stormed out of the room frustrated saying "Jesus Christ!" after questioning my lingering knee pain 8 months post meniscus repair surgery. He focused on another surgery even though the mri shows no tears. Didn't want to discuss alternate solutions until i pressed him. He could honestly care less about my situation. It's a shame, I put a lot of trust in him during this entire process. His true character was shown that day.
Great experience with the whole staff.
Dr. Weldon was compassionate and took time to explain everything to me.
Everything was very well except for the doctor. I think he needs to be more careful whenever he's showing how to like move your injury, like to be more careful with it. Sometimes I think he's just like too fast, saying things too fast and not really being patient. But other than that, he's a really good doctor.
I had a amazing experience and very fast with service and very nice
I think compassion goes a long way. Completely understanding the patient needs and not rushing bc you have a lot other patients.
Great doctor. Happy with surgery. Wish they were a little more on time.
I was impressed with how kind everyone was... from the xray person, to the front desk, the nurse and the doctor. It was a perfect experience.
I appreciate Dr. Weldon's positive attitude and encouragement.
I like it there. People are always nice and attentive. But there are no magazines to thumb thru while waiting. Hah nobody does any more these days.
Thank you for caring for my child and treating him like your family! Fantastic doctor and office, can't ask for any better!
It was a great experience
After visit some compunction should be allowed or assistance should answer the questions it is necessary just keep visiting just for fenders bender questions Also your questions for patients participating is not allowing me and continue at end questions
The wait time was approx 30-40 min. He had other patients that were running behind schedule so it delayed my appointment. Dr. Weldon was politely greeted me, inquired how I was doing and followed up with my injection treatment. The visit went extremely well and will be following up in another 4 mo
Nurse/Assistant took extra time letting me know when doctor would be coming in treatment room. Dr Weldon was totally thorough about the explaining the state of my knee and different measures to help. After treatment Dr Weldon gave good after care instructions as well as future treatments if needed. I really, really appreciated Dr Weldon's recommendations for a board certified foot doctor so that I will continue to excercise & live a healthier life!
