I saw Dr. Byram at the Franklin TN Bone and Joint Institute for a shoulder injury. The staff was professional yet friendly, everything ran on schedule with no long wait times. All of that is nice of course but the impressive part is that they listened to me, I’m sure they see the same type of shoulder injury 500 times a year but you wouldn’t know it because they didn’t presume anything, they took time evaluating my injury and were very thorough.

He saw me and very quickly diagnosed my shoulder issue. Dr Byram explained in detail so I understood the issue and my choices. He did all I could ask of any Doctor for a single visit.
