Patient Reviews
Jun 03, 2025
Dr. Christopher Wilson ignored my repeated complaints of wrist pain and insisted my issue was thumb arthritis — even though my thumb didn’t hurt. He refused updated imaging and performed surgery on my thumb and wrist based on old scans. Post-surgery, my wrist still hurt and my thumb was barely usable. When I questioned him, he got angry, blamed me, and eventually dismissed me as a patient. A new surgeon later found a fully torn ligament in my wrist — exactly what I suspected from the start. Now I need another surgery, and my thumb may be permanently damaged. In my opinion, Dr. Wilson is arrogant, dismissive, and dangerous. I trusted him and now live with life-changing consequences.
