Verified patient
Dec 2023I was treated with the utmost respect and care that I have had since this problem has arisen. Everyone was well aware of my concerns and needs before I said anything. Dr. Fraser came in, having already previewing my x rays. He explained them to me and listened to my concerns and needs. He was confident in the way we needed to go for improvement and I felt such a relief with everything he explained we needed to do. The other staff members were excellent and my checkout for my hip replacement was already set with all the information I could possibly need. by the end of my visit. The young man (I don't remember his name), was very thorough in showing and explaining all the paperwork and events that will occur until my surgery. The professionalism and ease of flow from the beginning to the end was superior. Thank you!

Verified patient
Aug 2023Dr Fraser I'm sure is probably a good doctor, but he's not that friendly in my opinion. I am in the process of looking for myself another knee doctor. He seems like he rushes in and can't wait to leave the room. I felt that way from my very first appointment with him, but I was trying to give him the benefit of the doubt. Would I recommend Dr Fraser to any of my family and friends, no I would not. He needs to practice on his bedside manner. plus he didn't seem to care about his clients in my opinion.
Verified patient
Aug 2023Very respectful, kind and knowledgeable.
Verified patient
Aug 2023So Dr. Fraser and his P.A. were of GREAT help and benefit for me. They listened to my problems, gave me very helpful advice and their recommended treatment, although a little painful, worked extremely well, and my knee pain and problems were eliminated within a day or so. I honestly find it quite amazing really, that I went from hardly being able to walk, and bend my knee, to almost a complete recovery. And so far, after a week, I'm thankfully, still doing well. I appreciated the EXCELLENT health care that was provided to me.
Verified patient
Aug 2023They were very good if anything happened to me I’ll go back it was great
Verified patient
Aug 2023Very pleasant experience. No waiting to be seen, appointment right on time. All staff very friendly and helpful.

Verified patient
Jul 2023My experience this time around w/ this procedure has not been the best. My first hip replacement was with Dr Mason he was all around impeccable! Dr. Fraser on the other hand, has no bedside manner and everything seems rushed. His PA was more caring and thorough than he was. I am a Novant employee so I know what the expectations are when giving care to our patients. Dr Fraser has no personality and is very flat, I would honestly never recommend him and I am a person who always give the benefit of the doubt but every single interaction with him has been the same.
Verified patient
Jul 2023Very poor concern for my needs. Wanted to give me his opinions without regard to MY needs.
Verified patient
Jul 2023The PA John was very helpful and a very good listener. So was the gentleman that checked me in at the front desk! Both were very pleasant people.
Verified patient
Jul 2023Definitely appreciated the fact that I did not have to wait a long time to be seen by a doctor.

Mar 2023I would like to thank Dr. Fraser for his integrity, knowledge and taking the time to explain the procedure to me. His skills as a surgeon are evident.
Verified patient
Mar 2023I thought the doctor would spend more time explaining my options; and the option I choose. It was very cut & dry, & routine for a 1st visit. Doc didn't make me feel like a person ~ just another patient. I drove an hour for this doctor & barely got 15 minutes. Did not meet my expectations.
Verified patient
Mar 2023I was here to get a second opinion. First of all, I was impressed that I was checked in and in a room within a very short time. Everything was explained by the nurse/PA and Dr. Fraser came in after a very short wait. He explained xrays and my reason for pain and discomfort in a way I understand. I left knowing that when I decide to have the procedure, I will definitely schedule with Dr. Fraser. Very good experience and glad I came for "second opinion".
