Stweartfan14 have you heard anything about his services?... did you mean to ask is he a good Doctor...not was he a good Doctor.....ask other medical personnel who may know him......


This is just plain silly...... did you mean to ask is he a good doctor... not was he a good doctor......

Well I don't know about anyone else but I don't really want someone OPERATING on me who has passed the minimum requirements and is a sufficient Dr. Remember that Dr. Kavorkian has MD behind his name also but I sure as heck don't want him as my dr. I don't think goddess added anything to this post that is useful to anyone except that she knows about horses and carts and the proper placement. Oh and yes it does help that he is pretty that is a major bonus :)

No, not really...

the op already stated that he had an appt with said physician....he then asked after the fact. if said physician was a good dr. ??? "horse before the cart"....

then someone stated that he was somewhat "semi competent and at the very least acceptable" and I really think that there are very few...that "slipped through the cracks"

Think about it like this....do any of us have that title...no we don't...so this physician has met at least the minimal standard and has taken all the testing that you need to have Dr. in front of your name....right?

So, to some degree, it is already a given that he is a good dr.

Plus ya gotta figure in personalities...we got great personalities here on gowilkes...ya gotta learn them personalities a little....not everyone will answer in the manner in which you would prefer...not everyone is actually being a smartarse either...it's what a lot of folks read into a post...that can make the difference.

He is the best also has a great bedside manner. Did surgery on one of my family last week. Answers all of your questions and concerns so you can understand. Wilkes needs more like him!

Why do doctors 'practice' medicine. Wouldn't it be better if they didn't have to 'practice' once they actually go to work?

He's pretty, if that helps at all.

I've heard he is very competent. Good luck.

RELAX Stewartfan, you'll be very happy with Dr. Hodge. He's a whiz of a surgeon,highly skilled, goes by thinking Less is Best, has a wonderful bedside manner and more! Best of all, he is always available for your concerns or those of the nursing team. (Our household just used his services in very serious way this week!)

I know everyone on here seems to be a smart.... I only look at this for the entertainment of seeing how ignorant people can be. But don't worry JC, everything will be fine.

Yep, U just did what you accused the rest of us of doing... good job!

the op was asking if the dr was a "good doctor" U would really need to ask a panel of his peers or colleagues.

If the op had asked if he had a good bedside manner....then you could ask some of his past patients.

Either way...good luck!

Research how many gallbladder surgeries are done at WRMC and how many of those had serious complications, to make it easier, go to another hospital.

What do you call someone who graduates at the bottom of their medical school class?

That's right....

Doctor.

Thanks flowerchic your so right that's why I hardly ever post on here. I just wanted to know what to expect from him I mean he might be operating on me that's scary enough.

I think everyone is too critical on here....Dang it she just wanted to know people's opinion of him.
