Scott Welsh, MD

I had Dr. Scott Welsh remove some screws from an old leg surgery that was giving me trouble. His attention to detail, focus, and bedside manners are the 3 things I appreciated most about him. He was able to do this minimally invasively, and I’m able to write this now after the pain killers wore off — 3 hours post surgery. The only that rival him is his staff. They were patient, courteous, and answered my questions promptly. I wish I could give him 6 stars.

One top notch doc! Doctor Welsh is an excellent sports medicine physician. Recently he performed rotator cuff surgery on my left arm. The results were excellent! I used his services several times and had great results. His staff is excellent too! They are professional, knowledgeable and very friendly.

I cannot recommend Dr. Welsh and his staff highly enough. I had my left knee scoped and microfracture performed in December. Before hand he walked me through all of the pros and cons of having surgery, and that sometimes things don’t appear on the x-​rays and MRIs. I went home, evaluated the options, and decided on surgery. My case was one of the ones where things ended up being much worse than x-​rays and MRIs led on. He did an excellent job of repairing my knee, and it is 100 times better than before. After several months of PT, I’m back to riding my bike, golfing, and nearly everything I was able to do before the knee went south on me. Eventually I’m going to need further work done, and I know that I’ll be heading back to Dr. Welsh and staff once that time comes.

When I injured my knee and was told by my family Dr. that I would probably need surgery, I went to see Dr. Scott Welsh. Dr. Welsh was very straight forward and honest with me. Together, we reviewed my MRI and weighed all my options. He did say there were alternatives to surgery, but with my injury it would be a painful walk down therapy road, and I would probably be back at the end of it. I trusted him, and I am glad that I did. My surgery went very smooth and he was with me through every step of my recovery. Dr. Welsh is very smart and his bedside manner is excellent.
His staff is also the best around. They were always very patient and polite with me.

Dr. Welsh, at Central Texas Orthopedics, is great. He repaired both rotator cuff tears in both shoulders and did a fantastic job. The aftercare was exceptional. I healed well and am completely back to normal. My experience couldn’t have been better. I highly recommend Dr. Welsh.

Dr. Welsh and his staff are top-​notch healthcare professionals who realize that personalized patient care is extremely important. I tore my ACL and did not know of any Orthopedic Surgeons. A hospital staff member provided me with Dr. Welsh’s information. Dr. Welsh repaired my ACL and has fixed 3 other joint issues I’ve experienced in the last 4 years. I am always allowed to spend as much time as I need with Dr. Welsh. He answers my questions in a way that I can understand. He takes a «whole body» approach to solving problems and does not immediately resort to surgery even though that is his area of expertise. Dr. Welsh’s staff is superb at handling appointments and addressing complex insurance issues, especially Dottie. I highly recommend Dr. Welsh as a healthcare service provider.

Staff is friendly, service is prompt, and Dr is knowledgeable. A+ experience.

Dr. Welsh is awesome!!! My son play tennis and trains four hours a day. Because of this, he is usually dealing with an injury! We brought him to Dr. Welsh after going to five other orthopedic surgeons in Austin. The great thing about Dr. Welsh and his office staff is that when I call for my son, it is usually over something important where he needs to be seen fairly quickly. I have always gotten in within a few days. Also, I like how he is conservative with his treatment plans, only pushing surgery when all else has failed. Also, having some sort of un-​diagnosed form of ADHD, it KILLS me to have to wait an hour for anything. I have never had to wait longer than a few minutes here!!! Dr. Welsh is kind, caring and really knows what he’s doing. His office staff is nice and quite the opposite of what I have experienced anywhere else in Austin.

Went to Dr Welsh for a second opinion on my knee injury. He confirmed the first doctor’s finding. Being an athletic person I really appreciated his sports background and his knowledge of progressive techniques. He spent a lot of time explaining the injury and treatment plan to me. Unlike the first doctor he made sure I really had my questions answered and focused on my concerns. Cool guy, great personality and couldn’t been happier with the outcome. Two little holes you can’t even see anymore and no stress from start to finish. I highly recommend this dude if you are looking for an ortho doctor who knows athletes and how to get us right back out there!
