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.

Dr. Gustavo Machado
I was looking for a hand specialist to help me with problems from a previous surgery when I found Dr. Machado. I was very nervous but when the receptionist said she would trust her children’s lives with Dr. Machado, I thought ok that’s a pretty good compliment. I was amazed at my first visit with him, and even scheduled surgery right away. I then found out that Dr. Machado had performed two different major hand surgeries on my daughter. She was extremely pleased and has experienced no problems. My experience is the same! I am so glad I found Dr. Machado!! He truly is amazing!! His knowledge, confidence, understanding, kindness and skill is just what I needed!!

Highly Likely
I liked his manner, his professionalism and his straight forward thinking and how he explained what my problem was. I had surgery on my left hand earlier this year and it is worse than before. Dr. Machado was not the surgeon, but explained to me what he could do. I appreciate his candor and attitude.

Excellent physician
I have been a patient of Dr. Machado’s for the last year after I saw firsthand how he took such good care of my sister when she shattered her wrist. Excellent hand surgeon and excellent bedside manner. I recommend him highly.

I had my surgery in 2017. About 2 years ago I was visiting a friend at Bryan West. Dr Machado walked by and remembered he did my hand surgery. Asked how I was doing and wanted to see my hand and how I was getting along. Not many Drs would remember but he did. The nicest man and Dr.
