I thought I would have to wait weeks to get an appointment but I had one the next day after I called! The Front desk staff, Dr [last name] and Dr McKeag were all highly professional,took time to listen to my problems and throughly explained my condition and treatment. Excellent visit!

I was able to schedule my appointment within week I called. Was called back within 10 min of arrival. My visit was completed within 30 min. Every staff member was professional, competent and focused on my care. Highest regards for each step of my visit! Perfect 10 out of 10!

I have had intermitten pain around my left knee for several years. The last 3 years involved draining fluid from the knee every 3 to 4 months and adding a steroid. On June 23, 2026, we discussed other prospects but NO surgery. While other ideas could be a temporary "fix" and lessen my pain, I decided to continue on with the very good results I have found from the 3 to 4 month plan. So, fluid was drained, meds were inserted.

It takes too many visits (payments) to determine the nature of a problem, and began the treatments or remedies for healing. I went to 4 different locations each giving a different diagnosis or no diagnosis. Each visit requires a copay. I finally received a correct diagnosis from the highlands doctor.

Each visit seems extremely complicating, the communication in between in the portal is very delayed and often very confusing. I just don’t think it should be this hard to get good coverage and help.

I can’t say enough good things about UAB Sports Medicine, Dr. McKeag, Phil, and Brandon. From start to finish, the care and dedication were outstanding. You all genuinely care about your patients, and it shows. I’m beyond thankful for everything you’ve done for me. I just hate that Highlands took away the free parking across the street.

Dr Ian McKeag is a fantastic physician. He puts me at ease by explaining everything step by step. With my injections, the pain has been so minimum that I barely feel it. His assistant is so professional and polite.

This was my second visit with the worst doctor I've encountered in my six decades. I understand that younger doctors are perhaps less professional than my generation is accustomed to, but I've been seen by other young doctors who were all polite and prepared. This doctor is neither. I'd be willing to discuss the provider, though I presume it wouldn't make any difference. He appears to be the only option in this field that UAB offers. We'll likely switch to Emory or Vanderbilt for care.

The people checking in took care of people that just arrived in front of those that had been waiting.

Dr. McKeag was very good… and pinpointed the problem with the shot …using the x-ray he was able to take the pain away that I had for 5 months of PT❣️I was so much better/healed … and have my left arm back now… which had been like a wet noodle… useless with pain❣️Everyone that helped was good too❣️I am very grateful❣️

They got me in the next day after I called and stated I was in a lot of discomfort. Even though the wait was a little long I felt so thankful that I was given appointment so soon.
