Overall, patient sentiment regarding Dr. Ronald Hess, DO, is mixed. He has an average rating of 3.6 out of 5 based on 30 reviews, indicating a range of experiences among patients. While some patients appreciate the friendly staff and easy scheduling process, others express significant dissatisfaction with Dr. Hess's diagnostic skills and bedside manner. Common themes in praise include the friendliness of the staff and the ease of scheduling appointments, which many patients found to be a positive aspect of their experience. However, criticism is notably directed at Dr. Hess himself, with several patients reporting feelings of being dismissed during consultations. Specific complaints include misdiagnoses, particularly regarding shoulder issues, and a lack of thorough physical examinations. One patient recounted a particularly negative experience where they were told their pain was psychological, only to receive a correct diagnosis from another physician shortly thereafter. In summary, while Dr. Hess may have a supportive office environment, potential patients should be cautious and consider seeking second opinions, especially for complex orthopedic issues, given the reports of misdiagnosis and dismissive attitudes.
