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 Casscells is excellent!

Dr. Casscells - personable, thorough. He reviewed my multiple foot/ankle MRIs, surgeries. Discussed treatment options. Included me in the plan. Just wish I had seen him before the first surgery.

I saw Dr. Casscells after I had slipped on the ice and fractured my fibula. My appointment was the day's first but he was over 45 minutes late. He walked in to the examining room, barely acknowledging that he was late, glanced at my X-ray, and informed me I would need surgery. He proceeded to discuss the surgery and what I would need after the surgery. I asked what alternatives there were (such as PT) and he said there were none, that I would experience "crippling arthritis" without surgery. He barely looked at my foot! I then sought a second opinion; the two exams were like night and day. The second doctor examined EVERY part of my foot and ankle and could not see any reason for surgery! Three years later, I am walking fine - without his suggested surgery.
