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. Seems professional but his staff is horrible

Infected Achilles Sutures
Dr Black took over my care after a dermatologist disrupted and caused infection to an old Achilles repair. I was at risk of loosing ankle function or possibly amputation. Weeks of IV antibiotics, surgery, casting and I am healed! I am grateful and would highly recommend.

This is my 3rd right ankle surgery. I was hesitant to have the ankle replacement; however, I could not endure the pain anymore. Dr Black's advice, surgical procedure recommendations, and followup were professional and extremely helpful. I am now able to walk pain free for the first time in years. Strongly recommend Dr. Black and his staff.

So far so good. Happy patient!
Dr. Black explains everything thoroughly, provides options, tells it like it is. Answers any questions you may have. He worked wonders with my foot and ankle. He gave me hope of being able to walk comfortably. Four months after surgery and it is looking very good! Very happy.
