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.

Excellent Outcome with Wrist Surgery
Very grateful to Dr. Florez and the excellent team at Cleveland Clinic. Dr. Florez was able to save my wrist after a very traumatic and complicated open fracture and surgery. I wasn't sure if I'd ever be able to resume normal activities but his skill and true passion for helping those patients return to a pain free and happy life is evident. Also, Matthew Bodanski, his PA is amazing and they are both very caring and truly want the best outcome. Thank you!

It’s been 5 years since doc did my bicep tendon surgery! Followed his instructions and everything is great! He was kind, very professional and I’d recommend him to anybody needing his expertise! Just a all around outstanding doctor and human! I’ve recently injured my arm and doc is not in the same group that he was before but a little search and I found him again and will be seeing him soon! Don’t delay call him and get yourselves checked out by a outstanding doctor!

Dr. Florez main goal was to convince me that what his partner said was true. rather than figuring out what was actually wrong. Not to mention anytime I would try to voice my concerns he would cut me off. I had a routine appointment with my pcp who immediately suggested an MRI and set me up an appointment with a different doctor. The amount of anxiety this has caused is totally unnecessary. I hope nobody else has to deal with this.

Dr. Florez is amazing. He takes the time to listen and makes his decision on what needs done first. I just had wrist surgery and was super nervous before hand and he helped me ease it down. It has been 6 days since surgery and my wrist/hand feels amazing. No swelling no pain. Just a little sore in some spots but not the same sore pain I had before surgery. He's one doctor I recommend to everyone. Plus his smile will brighten up day no matter what. Such a great doctor!

I was able to get an appointment the same day I called. Like the other reviews I can say he has a great bedside manner and made me feel very comfortable. I did a good bit of research before I made any calls and I'm very happy with Dr. Florez!

Dr. Flores was literally a life saver for me. When I called the orthopedic group in mon city they told me he no longer worked there. They would not tell me how to locate him. I spent a lot of time locating him and thought he was in Philly. Imagine my delight in finding that he was not that far. This young , caring surgeon has spoiled me. If I had needed a surgeon, I would have gone to Philly. Bless you, Dr. Florez?
