I even shook the man's hand at the end of the procedure because I was so impressed.”

“This was my first meeting with Dr. Mathern. I had been a patient for over six years with Dr. Stephen Parker, and I was so happy with his care. Getting to know a new doctor at the age of 79 after having the same great doctor for many years is not easy. However, Dr. Mathern appeared genuinely interested in getting to know my needs. He ordered an MRI since my last one was six years ago for my problematic spine area. We talked about going to PT. When I have my next appointment with Dr. Mathern, I hope we will speak regarding the outcome of my MRI and what might be the best path to take at this time to eliminate my pain.”
– Helen E.
“I was a bit anxious about meeting my new doctor. Dr. Parker was so skilled and exemplary in every way that he left the bar so high it wouldn’t be easily scaled. From the moment that Dr. Mathern walked into the room, he exuded humility, confidence, and approachability. As we went through my medical history, he seemed fully engaged and unhurried by any agenda. I’m confident he will be a wonderful physician, and I am grateful he is in my medical queue.”
– Ted S.
“This was my first experience with Dr. Mathern. My husband and I were impressed. We appreciated that he was willing to spend time listening to my concerns and took them serious.”
– Susan W.
“I was very pleased to meet Dr. Ryan Mathern. He was thorough with his treatment plan and answered all my questions in a way I understood. All the staff I dealt with were pleasant and a pleasure to deal with. I would recommend OrthoSC to anyone.”
– Norma S.
“This was my first visit with Dr. Mathern. He took over my care after Dr. Parker retired. Dr. Mathern was up to speed with my medical history and all that was going on with me. We went over everything and developed a course of action plan. I really think the doctor and I will be a good fit. I look forward to working with him on my many issues.”
