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.

He works real hard for insurance companies. Choose a doctor who will work hard getting you healthy.

I highly recommend Dr. Bruce Albert. My first experience with an Orthopaedic Surgeon did not go so well. I suffer from Shoulder impingement in both arms and have for a long time. My right shoulder was successfully fixed by another doc 5 years ago and hasn't given me any issues since. I went back to the same doctor for my left shoulder impingement and received a Cortisone shot (I now think it was expired Cortisone). Normally you feel pain 24-hrs later and then no pain 48-hours after the shot. My

Font office staff is terrible! When I booked my initial appointment last week the receptionist asked me what type of insurance I have, HMO or PPO? I replied saying "I actually have an EPO." She said that was fine. She asked me if I had their address. I read off an address to her. She stated that was their old address and she gave me their new one. She FAILED to mention they're located in the Urgent Care clinic. I arrive and she states that they don't take EPOs

Doc Albert is cool , listens well and explain the procedure . Makes follow-up decisions according to your (my) feedback . I am very satisfied with Dr.Alberts surgery skills , he did a fine job and even took extra time to clean up some arthritis he found . Also he has allowed me sufficient recovery time and physical therapy . I recommend him highly , his reviews and ratings are accurate .
