Grady L. Jeter, MD

Grady Jeter is an outstanding orthopedist and surgeon who is definitely NOT quick to recommend the knife. Undeniably knowledgeable and an early pioneer in arthroscopy. I have not written Unilocal reviews that often, yet I finally sat down to write one for someone whom I really respect.
He has treated me, my wife and my daughter and numerous recommended friends since I first sought treatment from him in 1986. We were almost all knee patients. He is objective in his diagnosis and outcome predictions. He gives you all the info pro and con of his recommendation and will give you all the info you want on alternatives. Office visits with Dr J are not rushed. I am a pain-​in-​the-​butt patient who has always self-​diagnosed and comes in armed with a ton of internet research and questions written down. Dr J insures I have had everything answered.
I am approaching 60 yrs old, completed 16 marathons and clearly have Dr J to thank for keeping me going. I still run, ski and backpack to the level of my present fitness without any orthopedic restrictions. Go to this knee doctor for sure for one of your opinions.

Dr. Jeter is a fantastic doctor. I heartily recommend him. He operated on my obliterated ACL in my knee about a year ago and was great to work with, as was his staff. He had me do pre-​operative physical therapy, which I’d never heard of, and it sped my recovery.
He also just operated on my shoulder and it came out so well, I wished I would have done it sooner. He’s a very highly skilled surgeon so my recovery is faster than typical and his care is simply the best. His long experience with professional athletes helps when working on us weekend warriors.
He is very friendly and not rushed. He gave me a thorough examination and answered all my questions including non-​surgical options. His staff are very professional and competent as well. They helped me maximize my insurance benefits and clear up issues fast.

Dr. Jeter is an awesome doctor and a great guy, and I highly recommend him especially if you are an athlete or just a weekend warrior athlete. I had a knee injury and got a referral from my doctor to visit Dr. Jeter. He diagnosed my torn meniscus on my first visit but suggested that I get an MRI to double-​check. After getting an MRI and x-​ray (at his office) it was confirmed that I had a torn meniscus in my knee. After a 30 minute arthroscopic surgery procedure, I was back on my bike within a week and working on my recovery plan. Dr. Jeter has treated many Olympic, professional and amateur athletes, and brings his wealth of knowledge to treating all his patients. He is a super nice guy and took the time to explain my injury, the surgical treatment and recovery plan. His entire office staff are very helpful and friendly as well.

If you are reading this review then congratulations, you found the right surgeon. Grady is a guru. I started playing tennis again after a 20 year lay off. I noticed that my shoulder would ache after playing but I assumed it was just due to not playing for such a long time. It became apparent that my shoulder issues would not go away without help. A friend pointed me at Dr Jeter, thank goodness. Dr Jeter looked at my shoulder and suggested a few non surgical options before we considered surgery. Unfortunately they didn’t work so Dr Jeter operated on my shoulder (distal clavicle resection). What a difference it made, I was out of my sling within 24 hours and back on the court 2 weeks after surgery, not serving, but hitting. After 2 months, my shoulder felt like it was almost 100%. After 4 months it felt like it did when I was a kid, its fantastic and I couldn’t be happier. Not only is he a great surgeon, he is an awesome guy, he even gave me his cell number so I could call him if I had questions. Hopefully, nothing else requires surgery, but if it does I am going back to Dr Jeter.

Dr. Grady is definitely known as one of the best knee doctors in the Bay Area. He has helped many elite athletes and is very trusted. I have had an acl surgery and recently a meniscus surgery by him and it is comforting knowing that I am going to the best. Recovery was always very quick and he is always available to talk or answer any questions.
