Your trust is our top concern.

We strive to keep reviews honest, trustworthy, and fair.

Doctors can not pay for good reviews, nor can they pay to have negative reviews removed.

We monitor all reviews to ensure they comply with our guidelines and don’t include personal information, profanity, libel, defamation, harassment, obscenity or fraud.

Any reviews that are deemed fraudulent or violate our guidelines will be removed immediately.

All reviews are confirmed and audited before publication, and community members have the ability to flag inappropriate content for further review by our team.

Amazing surgeon!
Dr. Ogburn did the surgery when I fell from my retaining wall resulting in an acetabular fracture of my hip. I’ve recovered very well frim this surgery. In addition, Dr. Ogburn has checked my progress over the last several year’s giving me excellent advice going forward.

Excellent surgeon!
I fell & fractured my patella in 5+ pieces. Saw Martin Stacil PA at the urgent care & Dr Ogburn worked me in for surgery the next day. I cannot say enough good things about the whole experience. Martin was wonderful explaining everything, & I think Dr Ogburn was a miracle worker. After 6 weeks off my knee, I could walk with little or no assistance !

Dr. Ogburn repaired a broken humerus from an accident. He was very cordial and professional and explained the surgery and expected recovery very well. A little over four months later and I am close to full recovery. I would highly recommend him to anyone!!

Broken Patella
I feel very lucky to have Dr Ogburn repair by broken patella after an accident. He was able to put the four pieces back together so the bones touched and grew together. Thanks to him I am up and walking again. I ask a lot of questions but the majority of my issues were explained before they were spoken with additional information I needed to know. Am so grateful Dr Ogburn was there for me and my family. Please note too his office staff is excellent from the greeting, on to X-ray, placed in examination room and to checkout all are caring and helpful. Thank you

Outstanding physician and staff
Dr Ogburn is really knowledgeable, compassionate, direct and kind. I had an unfortunate accident that left me with two broken shoulders. He took his time to go over what his recommendations were for me. I trust him completely.

Entering this review on behalf of my 80 year old aunt. After 8 months of constant pain from emergency surgery performed by another orthopedic for a broken femur, she went to Dr. Ogburn for a second opinion. After x-rays, he confirmed, as we all suspected, that the screw was entirely too large and needed to be replaced. He performed the outpatient surgery, and my aunt has finally been without that constant pain. He is a wonderful doctor and extremely compassionate.

Dr. Ogburn is an excellent doctor! I came into the ER with a traumatic injury to my left leg and left arm. He performed extensive surgery on my left leg which required an implanted support brace on my lower leg and I had a cast placed on my left arm. He is not one of those doctors who run in and out of the room in a haste. Rather he described in detail the process so I’d know what to expect and he compassionately listens to each of my concerns. I am still under Dr. Ogburn’s care. Not only is he professional and has a good sense of humor, but the quality of his work speaks for itself. I highly recommend Dr. Charles L. Ogburn to anyone who is searching for an outstanding orthopedic doctor. I am truly grateful for his quality of work.

Dr Ogburn took me on as a trauma patient after my knee surgery with Dr Mahoney and the tendon shredded in my knee and I fell and broke my ankle in both places. One side of the ankle had healed however after two months the outside of the ankle is infected and will not heal. Dr Ogburn has been very good about trying things and worked extremely well with my home health care. Yesterday he told me that the ankle needs to have the hard well removed the bone has knitted well but the infection is still on the skin and probably on the hardware. Dr Ogburn has me scheduled for surgery four days after I saw him. He is an excellent surgeon speaks very clearly and explains things very well. I highly recommend him.
