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.

The Absolute Best
My visit with Dr. Dee was singularly impressive. We hadn't ever 'met'. In trying to head off osteoporosis, I was in a vigorous Monday night fitness class at the 'Y' when I fell while trying to move my equipment from Point A to Point B. I was taken to Tobey, was subjected to an excruciatingly painful X-ray, and placed on a cot in the hallway. Two days later at 4:00 p.m. I was wheeled into the OR. There I met Dr. Dee for the first time (where we talked about King Richard III's bones that had just been discovered at a 'car park' in Leicester). He must have seen the X-ray, pulled a hip replacement in my size from the supply room, and implanted it! The following day he was at my bedside, insisting that I get up and walk the hallway with him! It hurt to do that. He was sympathetic but firm. It will be TEN YEARS in March (31st) that I have had this replacement hip. I have had not one moment of pain or any discomfort whatsoever! I am now 90 years old! He was a remarkable surgeon!

Bakers cyst
I found out I had a baker's cyst from Dr Dee's notes. He never told me that I had a baker's cyst. Why didn't he tell me and discuss with me what I could do about it? I saw Dr Dee 7 years ago when he treated me for a broken shoulder and I was very impressed with him. But not this time.

I had the pleasure of having a left knee replacement done by Dr Dee in February,2024 and he did a great job, I have been 3 months out and had a fall, was so nervous that I had messed up his hard work on my knee, and went today 5/23/24 and had an X-ray and a visit with Dr Dee I was reassured that I did not do damage to my knee just bruised and he advised me to ice it and take moltrin and reassured me that I was ok. Was very relieved and am so glad I picked him to do my surgery, I highly recommend him.

Welcoming and accessible
Doctor and staff were welcoming and concerned. Initial impression of office was positive and assistant was knowledgeable and friendly. Dr. Dee was both personable and engaged. He listened and asked questions during the examination and explained both his conclusions and reasoning. I definitely felt he cared about my situation and intended to help in any way he could. His treatment plan was clear and detailed and he made sure I understood and agreed. Visit was very pleasant on a personal level.

Their office was a little hard to find across from the industrial park at Wareham Crossing. The office is nice and big. The front desk was excellent and the staff was very friendly, once rooms by Jamie the x-ray technician came in and they did the x-ray of my knee right there in the office. Dr.Dee came in and showed me on the computer screen the x-ray showed arthritis and he gave me a shot of Cortizone in my knee feels brand new. Couldn’t have been an easier experience, excellent Office thanks Dr. Dee

He did my robotic partial knee replacement at Tobey hospital about 6 months ago. Dr. Dee and his staff were beyond exceptional and my knee feels like brand new. I've had no problems with it since. I would definitely recommend him to anyone! Thanks Dr. Dee!!

I just had my 1 year follow up for a total knee replacement that Dr. Dee performed. I am totally pleased with the whole process and am enjoying life pain free again. Prior to the surgery, I couldn't walk 100 yards without having to stop due to the pain. One year later and I can strap on a 40lb pack and hike for miles without knee issues. I really appreciate Dr. Dee's talents and the time he took to make sure the surgery was the best option for me.

He gave me advice on my torn rotator cuff. One surgeon said reverse shoulder replacement , he said there are other options such as repair, So glad I sought this doctor out.
