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.

A competent surgeon who replaced my hip in July 2018. He visited me twice in the hospital (a 2 day stay). His explanations were thorough and his manner encouraging.

Dr. Edelstein replaced my right knee in 2.2017 and my left in 9.2017. I am walking better than I have in tens years. The scars on my knees are thin and straight. I am very pleased with Dr. Edelstein and his incredible staff. Martha B.

Very disorganized office. Made an appointment and the day before the appointment received a letter (no phone call) cancelling the appointment because the doctor was unavailable. I then revived a letter chastising me for missing an appointment and implying I would be assessed a fee for being a no-show. When I called to complain I encountered rude personnel who refused to admit their error or withdraw the letter. Do not recommend this doctor or Kelsey-Seybold.

Probably very capable. Poor, dismissive bedside manner.

My experience with Dr. Edelstein was great. Both of my hips had degenerative arthritis and he performed hip replacement surgery on both within the same year. While I had complications with the second surgery (staff infection), he was aggressive with the treatment and cured the problem. I have the utmost appreciation and respect for him. He was professional and truly cares for his patience. His care improved my quality of life and I for that I am grateful and would highly recommend using him.
