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. Katz is very kind, thoughtful and caring.
Dr. Katz was very thorough and professional, while also making certain I clearly understood everything he was trying to explain to me pertaining to my injury and the proper way to take care of it until my next visit. He is a great listener, yet also does an excellent job of conveying information to his patients in a manner that is easy for them to grasp.

I would highly recommend.
I was referred to Dr Katz by the ER after I slipped on ice and broke my elbow. Dr Katz is very professional and very friendly. He and his staff explained every step of the surgical procedure and made me feel very comfortable. I would definitely recommend Dr Katz and Academy Orthopedics.

Thorough Professional Care
The whole practice stood out. From the first call to callbacks and final medication order confirmation the process was seamless. It was obvious they wanted you to have a positive and productive experience. Dr. Katz is very straightforeard, yet one does not feel like you are just a case. He considers not only the treatment of the issue but the cause and looks for ways to possibly decrease future problems. If his surgery is as good as his medical practice, he is great.

Trigger Thumb & Finger issues RESOLVED!
Dr. Katz is a wonderful, kind, and caring doctor. From the minute I met him, he assured me that what I was experiencing could be fixed. He gave me the options and let me decide what treatment plan I wanted to pursue. After a successful quick procedure on my thumb, I'm good as new! I HIGHLY recommend Dr. Katz. He and his team are fantastic!

2nd Opinion
The ease of making the appointment all the way through the actual appointment was 5 star. His full explanation of my recovery process and what should be expected over the next 6 months in addition to addressing the swelling that my original physician did not address even at final visit.

My thumb works again!
Dr. Katz was able to quickly diagnose my issue and provide treatment on the spot. A few days after treatment, my thumb was back to normal as he said it would be. I don't know why I waited so l long to get it treated. Feels great to have a working thumb again! I'd definitely recommend seeing Dr. Katz.

Staff was very friendly and welcoming in each part of the visit. DR KATZ is wonderful! Personality plus and extremely professional but down to earth. On both visits he has injected the precise spots to bring lasting relief to my finger joints. Wouldn't think of going anywhere else.
