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.

Extremely thorough
I was first seen in a hospital environment and was in need of a re replacement of my right shoulder. Due to an infection the old prosthetic broke and had to be replaced after 8 weeks on IV antibiotics he was able to replace the old shoulder prosthetic. Unfortunately my body rejected the new prosthetic and it had to be replaced this was handled very professionally with compassion and care I am truly grateful for Dr. Updegrove’s professionalism and competence in my medical care

Incredible first impression upon meeting
Dr. Updegrove is highly positive, upbeat, and comfortably self-assured. No signs of an elevated ego actually it was well in check. Young and smart utilizing state-of-the-art technologies in his approach to treating both common and difficult orthopedic challenges. Surgery is very low on his list of remedies or cures. Dr. Updegrove is a new bread of dedicated practitioners who truly enjoy the challenges of their work and cares deeply about their patients.
