Patient Reviews: Dr. Todd Murphy

“After doctoring with Dr. Kreis for 38 years, I was a bit apprehensive choosing a new physician. Within minutes of meeting with Dr. Murphy, my confidence in Orthopedic Associates of Port Huron returned. Dr. Murphy was very thorough in explaining my condition and took time to discuss my concerns. When the timing is right, I will be returning to Dr. Murphy for my joint replacement.”

“Very happy with the experience I had at Orthopedic Associates and with Dr. Murphy's care. Appointments were always on time with very little waiting. Staff very friendly and loved how clean everything was! Very happy with Dr. Murphy's care and communication. Would and have recommended this to family and friends.”

“I think Dr. Murphy is one of the most caring doctors I have ever had, also he has a great staff working for him. Doctor never rushes you he takes the time to listen to you. Thanks a million Dr. Murphy!!!!!!”

“Dr. Murphy was great. He did a good job with my shoulder surgery. [Jan. 2015] I recovered quickly and have had no trouble with it over the last year. The nurses and staff were excellent. Thank you to everyone.”

“I have had surgery three times over the past fours years (Torn Meniscus and Bilateral Rotator Cuff Repairs) performed by Dr. Todd Murphy. I appreciate Dr. Murphy's kind and compassionate demeanor. His expertise as a surgeon is beyond my expectations. I feel grateful to have such an experienced surgeon to help me with my needs.”

“Exceptional care and follow up. Caring, compassionate, and competent doctor and nursing staff. My wife and I are both patients at Orthopedic Associates. We may choose to go out of town for some medical services and procedures, but not orthopedics, we know we are in good hands at OAPH.  ”

“On May 6th I fell down the stairs at my church and took the tendons off both my knees. Local hospital failed to diagnose that sent me home to see my family doctor. Went to see her on May 7th. She was able to get me an appointment at Orthopedic Associates that afternoon. They knew immediately what I had done and scheduled me for surgery on May 8th. It has now been nearly 9 months. Dr. Murphy did an exceptional job and says I should be doing what I used to do in 12 months. I think he will be right in his prognosis. Nothing but thanks for the work done for me!!!”

“Dr. Murphy explained my shoulder problem very thoroughly and gave me my options to think about. Great doctor to have on your staff.”

“I fell off my horse and broke my wrist, it was a very bad break and required surgery, Dr. Murphy was great during this whole process. I went for a month of physical therapy. Everyone was very nice and helpful.  My wrist is doing well. I would recommend Orthopedic Associates to anyone. Both of my sons have been treated there in the past for fractures with very good results, that is why I decided to go there.”

“I have had a great experience with the P.T. staff. Everyone was professional and knowledgeable and a pleasure to work with. I would and do recommend Orthopedic Associats to my friends.”

“Dr. Murphy repaired a very serious shoulder injury. Had a torn rotator cuff and it was detached from the bone. Also had bone spurs and some shredding of the bicep tendon. I'm a bowler was told I'll never bowl again after I get a shoulder reversal done. Dr. Murphy took time and reassured me I can have my injuries repaired and I will be able to bowl again. I did everything  Dr Murphy told me to do and glad to say within 5 months of my surgery I'm bowling. Had the surgery done Dec 15, 2014. Thank you so much to Dr. Murphy and all of the Orthopedic Associates team.”

“Always have been pleased with Dr. Murphy and the staff. First visit was for a second opinion and I was so impressed that I changed from the previous office.”

“Dr. Murphy did a top notch job. He spoke with calmness and honesty as he treated my son for his collarbone injury. He treated Mark professionally yet sympathetically and assured him he would be fine. Mark was eager to play football again and Dr Murphy aligned Mark's mental thoughts with the right decisions and the right time to play again. Dr. Murphy is a positive role model for Mark and we, his parents, cannot be more grateful for this experience. We will recommend Dr. Murphy to others.”

“Frozen Shoulder - Upon returning from three months in Florida where they had no success treating my frozen shoulder (X-ray, MRI, cortisone shots, physical therapy), I went to Dr. Murphy. They took another X-ray, repeated the MRI, and had me try 3 more weeks of physical therapy, then they put me under and Dr. Murphy broke the adhesions. He said I was tied for the worst frozen shoulder he has every dealt with. After some more physical therapy, my shoulder was completely healed. Unless I think about it, I can't even tell which shoulder it was. I was impressed with my whole experience at Orthopedic Associates.  I never waited long for an appointment, all the staff was friendly and professional, and Dr. Murphy was extremely competent, caring, and humorous.”

“To start, what a great place to have where they are so professional. My doctor recommended me to Orthopedic Associates. Dr. Kreis examined me. We decided on our plan for repairing my knee. We did all the prep to make sure what was wrong with MRI's and an X-ray. We then did surgery to repair the knee, which could not have gone better. Now my knee is almost back to normal. If you’re looking for true professionals, this is the place that includes all the staff I dealt with. One of my friends also had a wrist problem and Dr. Heithoff fixed him up.”

“I am currently receiving physical therapy twice a week under the guidance of Donna and Karen. I have never run into such a large group of professionals as caring and confident as they are! Besides the "normal" routine, which is exercises and manual therapy, the encouragement I receive from everyone is appreciated. Even though my condition resembles MS, I refuse to go backwards but progress positively with Orthopedic Associates of Port Huron support and future therapy activities.”

“My son got a football injury, which turned out to be a completely torn ACL. We were seeing an orthopedic specialist close to our home for a month after the injury occurred. We weren't happy with the progress, so I inquired on whom would be a good choice to contact and I ended up calling Orthopedic Associates of Port Huron.   Dr. Murphy had an appointment available the same day I called, which was impressive enough. My son had surgery the very next day, which was an amazing experience for me as a parent and him as a patient. Dr. Murphy and the staff were very pleasant and efficient. I can't imagine how delayed my son's recovery process would have been if we wouldn’t have contacted Orthopedic Associates of Port Huron. I am very happy that my son is on the road to recovery and on his way back to being active in the sports he loves so much. I will recommend this facility to anyone who asks.”

“"My experience at Orthopedic Associates has been exceptional. I feel very comfortable with Dr. Murphy and the staff. The staff are all knowledgeable and friendly. I like the fact that there doesn't seem to be any tension in the office and that makes for a good work environment. I'm glad I was recommended to Orthopedic Associates. Thank you." -- Doug D. ”

“"Dr. Murphy was very nice by making sure to tell me what could be done for me and how. I was impressed with his concern about my knee injury as I have heart trouble and an operation is out of the way to help. I would and have recommended Dr. Murphy to all my friends." -- Edward R.”

“"I respect Dr. Murphy as one of the best doctors in his practice of knee injury. He has been great with me in his treatment of my injury and explaining my options. He takes the time to give me good advice and shows he cares. I feel much better after every visit. I would refer any person to him as a great doctor." -- Edward R.”

“"After months of ignoring shoulder pain, getting referrals for physical therapy from my primary care physician, waking up to pain two to three times a night, I decided it was time to seek professional care. Thanks to both Drs. Scott Heithoff and Todd Murphy. I am sleeping through the night and so excited about being able to resume golf. Thank you!" -- Linda V.”

“I am 52 years old and my knee has been sore, swollen and weak. This was NOT the first time but I decided to have it investigated. After seeing Dr. Murphy and having X-rays and a MRI, it turned out to be osteoarthritis. Can't say I'm too happy about that, but Dr. Murphy and the staff were super professional and super friendly and understanding. Great team! I will definitely be back! They know their stuff!"  -- Laurie W.”

“I have never written a testimonial before let alone did I ever think I would write to express my experience at OA.  I mentioned the doctors that I have received treatment from (Drs. Sciotti, Murphy & Scott Heithoff) and I have to say I would recommend them to anyone needing Orthopedic or specialized care, but I want to express my deepest appreciation to all those that work at Orthopedic Associates whom have touched my life and health care in a profound way!  To the staff, physicians assistants, X-ray department personnel, billing and schedulers and to everyone in the physical therapy department and the Surgery Center; I want to recognize as well.  My experience has been that of professionalism, friendliness, and kindness as well as understanding my health care needs.  I would not think of going anywhere else for my Orthopedic needs.  Thanks”
