Steadman Hawkins Clinic – Denver

Horrible place, they set my wrist wrong, tried to tell me its adequate, and then said lets say its within an acceptable range! BS. It was painful anytime I used my dominant arm. After months of supposed therapy, (at which the guy who first looked at my arm out of the cast, said who the hell set your arm!) it was always in pain, I had spoken to all the «top» Drs, one finally said IF you’d like to have surgery, we can do that, but that means more downtime, and 70 maybe 80% use after! I was horrified, and thought, there has to be someone else who can give me better outcome! DR YI, at Peak Orthopedics! My arm was shorter on the main bone! So 4 weeks after surgery, my arm was useful and no pain, in 2 weeks! I now have 98% and will be better yet! A long 6 months of crap with Steadman Hawkins! DO NOT GO HERE FOR YOUR ARM!

It seemed that since I wasn’t a superstar athlete, Dr. Noonan really didn’t care too much about my knee. I ripped up my knee playing racquetball a couple of years ago, had it scoped by someone else but it’s never healed, so I went to what was supposed to the «best». His tech x-​rayed my knee crooked so that Noonan couldn’t really see the gap in between the bones but he said «oh yeah, I can’t quite see it very well, but you’re loosing your cartilage. You’ll just have to live with it» and basically walked out of the room and left his assistant to deal with me. He probably spent a whole 3 — 4 mins with me.

I will start with my overall experience of Dr. Boublik, as I know most people are reading these to find the best doctor. I have had three visits with Dr. Boublik. The first was to address knee pain, the second to review my MRI, and third was a follow up after 8 weeks of PT. In all three visits, Dr. Boublik was very patient. He explained the results of my MRI and the cause of my knee pain in full detail. He allowed me to ask all of the questions I had, which were a lot, and never seemed like he was rushing me out the door. During the MRI review, he noted that I have swelling, but wanted me to try PT before jumping to surgery. After 8 weeks of PT, I still have pain, which I told him on my last visit. His next step, though, is for me to try injections and he thoroughly explained his rationale behind why. I am fairly active person and surgery is the last thing I want so for me, I truly appreciate his conservative approach to try every option we can to avoid surgery.
My second review is for the clinic as a whole. I do have to agree with other statements that on my first two visits, I waited anywhere from 15 to 25 minutes before being called back, but I think that’s the case with a lot of popular doctor offices. With that said, I’ve never experienced the office staff as rude, and especially noticed their kindness this last Friday. On the 11^th, I had an appt. scheduled for 8:45. Due to the snow, I left my home (Louisville) at 7:00. It took me almost 2 ½ hours to get to the clinic. I called twice to let them know I would be late and was told by someone that, «Amber said if you’re here by 9:30, you can keep your appointment.». I arrived at 9:20 to be told that I was marked as a no show. I explained what I was told on the phone and the woman at the front when to verify it. After a few minutes, I was told I had to reschedule. Easily stressed with the whole situation, and having waited a month for my appointment, I asked if there was anything they could do and stated again what I was told on the phone by someone on the PT side. A few more minutes went by and I was told that they could squeeze me in. Apparently, as it turns out, Amber was never asked if I could keep my appt., and she was also never told I called. I really can’t express how grateful I am for Amber, the front office staff, and Dr. Boublik for fitting me in. Between the drive there, waiting a month for my appt. and being tired with not knowing how to proceed with my knee pain, it meant so much to me that they worked with me to keep my appointment. Forget what others say about the clinic being rude; they’re amazing staff all around.

Front desk personnel are rude. Physical therapists are good. I decided to go to a different place where I get just as good physical therapy but with nice front desk personnel.

I love Steadman Hawkins. I especially love Jameson Parker PA
His shot series
for my arthritis knee never hurt and you are in and out. Very professional, knowledgeable and caring. Great Job James.
Amber is also Great always pleasant responds back promptly when needed. Best Place Ever

I’ve contacted my insurance company again and was told that the reimbursement of the monies paid to this clinic and Metzl have not been made yet. Cigna is opening another complaint. I will provide another update asap.

Steadman Hawkins could never make an appointment on time from the Surgeon side or the Therapy side I typically would wait anywhere from 15 – 45 minutes on average from the time of my appointment before receiving services.
They do not care about your time once you are a patient, they are more focused getting payments as soon as you walk in for previous visits.
I will be looking to another doctor for any future orthopedic needs.
This is the worst customer service I have ever experienced

I have been dealing with hip pain for 10 years. I have seen 3 different doctors about the same issue. My very first appointment here my doctor, Dr. James Genuario, gave me a diagnoses and a plan of action! Within a month I had surgery to fix my problem. Two days after my pre-​op appointment they had my prescriptions ready to be filled. They are extremely organized and efficient. Everyone from the front desk to the post-​op room was so professional and they made my stay as comfortable as possible! They have already scheduled all of my physical therapy appointments for a full month. If anyone is looking for an orthopedic specialist I would highly recommend Steadman Hawkins!

Steadman Hawkins Clinic does care and wants your visit to be quality. The doctors are the best in the area and are easy to communicate with. Office staff will help you in any way they can. I have been to clinics in other states that are similar and was not disappointed.

Recently Started seeing Dr. Kummer for wrist and arm problems. She has proven knowledgeable and accommodating. Friendly, attentive staff, good service, and very reasonable prices.
(Since im not insured) :-/​
Highly recommend this clinic!

I definitely give them 5 stars for expertise, professionalism, facilities, accommodating, and the convenience of surgery being in the same building. Dr Boublik was great to have for my ACL surgery.
If I had to ding the office for anything, it is wait time. I few times I found myself waiting 30 – 60 minutes to see the doctor for a scheduled appointment.

The only good thing I can say about this place is the surgeon did a good job on my husband’s knee. Everything else has been a nightmare. The staff has NO customer service skills. Phone calls are not returned. Appointment times get screwed up and you end up waiting around forever. I’m beyond frustrated and annoyed. I will never refer anyone here and plan to start looking for somewhere else for my husband to finish his PT with

This place comes with stellar reviews. My experience has not been so great. They have absolutely no respect for your time. My first appt (right after an injury), I waited 15 minutes past my appt time, only to be told the dr was too busy to see me and the PA would see me instead. My follow up visit is now 45 minutes past my appt time and no end in sight. Ridiculous. As well the office staff is extremely rude and unhelpful. Find another Ortho Dr if you want to be treated respectfully.
Update to today’s review. I was seen at 2:35 for my 1:30 appt. Neither the medical assistant or the PA apologized for keeping me waiting over an hour. There is simply no excuse for treating patients with such blatant disrespect. They seem to think that seeing the professional sports jerseys on the walls is enough to impress patients. No, I am impressed by professional behavior, which I did not find here.

On March 24, 2014 I tore my ACL, MCL, and lateral meniscus skiing at Loveland. I was living in Durango at the time and was visiting Denver on a ski vacation. Thanks to a friend, I quickly got into Steadman Hawkins to see Dr. Jameson Parker who works with Dr. Martin Boublik. I had heard nothing but amazing things about the clinic so I completely trusted them and haven’t regretted it one bit! I asked for a recommendation for a doctor in Durango as it would be too difficult to have the surgery done in Denver being so far away. (For you out-​of-​staters Durango is roughly 6 hours away). Dr. Boublik referred me to Dr. Blevins (they trained together) so I felt very comfortable in his hands. Dr. Blevins decided I should wait to gain strength and full range of motion before having surgery because it would make recovery better. When I went in for surgery on August 1 (after doing physical therapy in Durango twice a week from March-​July), Dr. Blevins discovered my ACL tear was perfect for the «ACL healing response surgery» which was actually started by the Steadman Hawkins clinic. When I woke up and he told me I only had 3 small incisions instead of him taking part of my patella or hamstring tendon… I was ecstatic because it’s roughly a 3 month recovery! I continued to recover and moved up to Denver in November and went back to the Steadman Clinic. In December, Dr. Boublik told me I could get back to skiing which was all I really wanted to hear. Although it felt like I waited a lifetime… I really didn’t miss a beat and skiing has felt great ever since! I will take precautions because I couldn’t imagine doing that to my knee again but there was a time when I thought I would never get back on skis again… and I’m so happy that wasn’t the case and I have Steadman Hawkins to thank for that (all the way back to the amazing surgery they started performing and training people to do). I highly suggest Dr. Boublik and Dr. Parker. I also highly suggest Sarah H. as a physical therapist. She knows physical therapy and is very personable. Although I can go less frequently (because my knee is getting stronger every day), I feel comfortable trusting their instincts regarding my knee.

Wish I could rate my experience 10 stars. I’ve had severe hand and wrist problems for many years but no more. Dr. Kummer, who specializes in hands, successfully eliminated tendonitis and carpal tunnel with a recovery time of only 2 weeks and VERY little pain. Her front office staff is friendly and efficient and her surgical team is absolutely first class. I was relaxed and very well cared for from start to finish. Even got mac and cheese when it was all over. Let’s face it; surgery is scary and we all know the doctor you choose can make all the difference. I found her by luck and that is why I am writing a review. No more tingling, no more pain and the scars are invisible. Do yourself a favor and let Dr Kummer and her «words can’t say enough great thing about» staff help you through it.

This review is for Dr. Metzl. I visited him for a second foot and ankle opinion, and he spent quite a bit of time answering my questions. He wound up coming with the same plan as my current surgeon. My current surgeon thinks highly of Dr. Metzl, and I was impressed as well. I would recommend Dr. Metzl for a foot/​ankle orthopedic opinion.

I highly recommend this clinic! Dr Metzel, Kaitlyn, and his M.A. Taylor are amazing, kind and very helpful and knowledgeable. I broke my tib and fib this past May in Vegas and had to have surgery there (titanium rod and plate and screws). Came back home and fell upon this practice for all my post op appointments and could not be happier. Plus, my Physical Therapist Kelsey is so kind and I have seen progress since going to her!
I have never broken a bone ever (will be 37 wed) and all of the team never make feel stupid if I have a question about something.
If God forbid something does happen or you need PT, go here!

Super disrespectful of people’s time. I’ve had to wait twice now up to more than an hour past my appointment time to see the doctor. Not a good wait to earn business.

My daughter attended the ProCamps with Demaryius Thomas this weekend and the Steadman Hawkins Clinic was on hand to handle any sports injuries and had seminars both days for parents to ask questions during the 7 hour camp.
It was a great opportunity to ask questions about nutrition and training to a professional with a group of parents whose kids are all athletes in some way.
I’d heard a lot about this facility as they worked with Missy Franklin and a handful of other Colorado high school athletes that were in the top of their game.
My daughter also happened to hurt her foot the first day (twist it slightly) and they immediately iced her up, had her sit and stretch out while they kept an eye on her. She was up and jumping around within half an hour and ready for the rest of the camp. I was impressed from the stands watching them work with her.
Great facility and wonderful to see them out working with an organization like ProCamps for a weekend with the kids and the Denver Broncos!

I saw Ted Schlegel today. The whole office was on the mark, very professional and compassionate. I would strongly recommend this group as the best that I have seen in Denver Colorado. I have also been going to physical therapy with the Steadman Hawkins Clinic for two months now. Having gone to other PT offices it was a joy to work with this attentive professional group. I’m thankful to have a team in place. Mimi
