Your trust is our top concern.

We strive to keep reviews honest, trustworthy, and fair.

Doctors can not pay for good reviews, nor can they pay to have negative reviews removed.

We monitor all reviews to ensure they comply with our guidelines and don’t include personal information, profanity, libel, defamation, harassment, obscenity or fraud.

Any reviews that are deemed fraudulent or violate our guidelines will be removed immediately.

All reviews are confirmed and audited before publication, and community members have the ability to flag inappropriate content for further review by our team.

Success x Two!
Facing two knee replacements was a challenge I dreaded. However, it was the TEAM that prepared me for the challenge, brought me through the challenge, and supported me after the challenge that made all the difference. Dr. Waligora performed “beautiful” work on both knees (yes, beautiful!), and his support staff – primarily Aaron and Alaina – responded very promptly to all my post-op needs and questions. I gladly give FIVE STARS to this top shelf medical team. T P Hill

Very skillfull, competent, and kind
Dr Waligora did a total knee replacement for me. He is thorough in exams and explanations. He is honest with potential problems and outcomes. Takes time to answer all questions. He is very kind and compassionate. My knee is doing super well- 6 wks out. I have brittle bones, osteogenesis. Surgery was a big risk, so I am thriled to have found Dr. W.

Best in Pittsburgh
Dr Waligora took on my extremely complicated failed knee replacement case. He is very knowledgeable, kind, and professional. It is reassuring to know that you are in the care of the best doctor for knee replacement in the Pittsburgh area. I only wish I would of had him as a doctor when I had my first knee replacement.
