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.

Best Orthopedic Surgeon in the region!
I’ve had a few orthopedic procedures with different doctors. Dr. Dyer is the very best I have experienced, anywhere. He takes his time, listens, and really walks you through your options.

Fantastic Doctor! Genuine Concern for his Patients
From the minute I met Dr after at TOA I knew he was a full cut above all other Drs. in his field. He had a genuine love and concern for his patients well being in every sense of the word. His humor and manner of putting you at ease while remaining a highly professional Dr let me know immediately that I would have no one but him for my Dr of Orthopedics.Few are like him if I had a 20 star rating system with 20 being high; his rating would be 21.

Why did I wait?
After several years of bone-on-bone discomfort with my knee, I finally gave in to replacement surgery. Following multiple injections with little or no relief, it was time. Dr Dyer, recommended by a friend, was the answer to my pain. Two days after the surgery there was no pain loading the knee. 5 weeks post-op I was able to walk with minimal discomfort.

Visit with Dr. Dyer at TOA in Hendersonville Tn.
I saw Dr. Dyer for pain in the shoulder. Dr. Dyer was professional, and friendly to converse with. He took the time necessary to explain the cause of the pain. He treated the problem, and set up therapy to get to recovery. I feel fortunate to have him as my physician. Dr. Dyer and the staff at TOA are first rate.
