    Dr. Mason was training a student and I enjoyed hearing him guide him through the procedure. The one thing I would say was that what I was told would happen (PRP and hyaluronic acid gel, 2 injections) was not exactly what I had (the blood platelet part and 3 injections to shoulder joint, tendon area, and rotator cuff. He explained clearly afterward why he chose to do more, but I was confused while in process. I definitely support his choices.

    I'm not well pleased with essentially the self-help approach: simply being instructed to not throw until he's not hurting and then handed generic printouts (left blank). Honestly, I expected much more professional care- Some professional consultation. On-site time with a therapist instructing and demonstrating proper method and application

    He didn't listen to a thing I said. Stop trying to send patients for unnecessary tests and scans when the issue has already been explained. Completely on a money grab so you can bill an MRI and you left me with no option but to find another provider and take my business elsewhere. Dr Mason is undoubtedly the worst physician I have ever dealt with, regardless of practice or specialty. He spent less than 2 minutes in the room. And helped/solved absolutely nothing. Completely ignored my past history and prescribed me an NSAID when I explicitly said those have never worked. I have a wedding in two weeks, debilitating hip pain, and he denied me a cortisone shot for temporary relief to money grab for an MRI. ABSOLUTE FRAUD. I will never do business with any department in Emory medical ever again. And you have Dr mason to thank for that.

    I never recommend anything, but I do tell others, when asked, about my experience with a product or service.
