“Dr. Fallis has helped me underst...”

Dr. Fallis has helped me understand in detail my condition, enabling me to better make choices on how to increase my mobility. His knowledge of the body and attention to details regarding my case always is amazing. Dr. Fallis walks into the room having read over all my notes and looked at all my scans/ tests with a clear picture of what is going on in my body. He follows that up with questions and tests to give him the full picture of what's going on. He then showed me pictures of my past scans/tests and took the time to explain in detail what is going on, answering every question I had and giving me follow up instructions. His knowledge, attention to detail, compassion for patients, and ability and willingness to take time to explain to patients what is going on in their body is truly a blessing and has had a huge impact on my life. The first day I came into Dr. Fallis' office I was barely able to stand or walk and was not able to sleep do to constant 10 level pain. I wanted to give up. With his care and the help of my Vanderbilt team I am able to walk with a cane and make changes to my life that further benefit Dr. Fallis' treatments. My quality of life has increased beyond what I ever thought I would have again. I am so thankful God brought me to Dr. Fallis and I am so thankful to be one of his patients!

“Dr. Fallis was awesome. He and I...”

Dr. Fallis was awesome. He and I were both a little confused at the start why I had been referred out to neurology given my lack of migraines or predisposition to headaches, but he was patient when I started telling him about the events that had brought me to his clinic, and there were a lot of things that happened in the last few months. Almost immediately he had a notion that the issue was in my neck, and within seconds he pulled up my head CT, zeroed in on the neck slice, and found that the curvature in my neck was almost backwards. He then dove into my history with me, noted my hyper mobility, and took great care in explaining his theory about what may have caused the incorrect curvature, reassured me that he thought it was muscular so very fixable, and then also dove into my light-headedness and fainting episodes - further suspecting that I may also have POTS and referring me out for testing. I've known about my hyper mobility and double-jointedness my whole life, but this was the first time that anyone had explained some of the second order effects that can occur as a result of it, and he took a lot of time and care explaining what I should be cautious of, how my threshold for injury may be lower/impacted, and things I should be aware of and to look out for moving forward. He also took great care in wanting to keep me in the loop and making sure I knew if I had any questions I could reach out. The next day, his treatment is already showing to be effective and in addition to the immense relief he's provided to my whole family in identifying some answers and next steps for me, I left our appointment feeling tremendously reassured, largely I think, because he seemed to feel confident, and it's probably the first time in this whole experience across multiple visits that I've felt someone else felt confident in what was going on which in itself was a huge relief. Thank you so much, Dr. Fallis!
