Dr. Clothiaux is like your favorite Uncle. He is kind, welcoming and explains things in a way that is so easy to underdtand. The important item is his competence. There is no one smarter, more capable or more talented.

Had my knee “replaced” 6 years ago.
Best decision I ever made. After PT and recovery, totally pain free.
Highly recommend Dr Clothiaux and his staff.

I am 66 and Dr Clothiaux has replaced both of my knees in 2020. He came highly recommended by someone who worked in surgery with him . And i will say he and his entire team exceeded those recommendations and my expectations. He is very thorough, kind, straight forward , explains details very well and is an excellent surgeon . I now have my life back and can enjoy every day. A huge thank you for his skill and expertise and true care of people ! I wish i would not have put off surgery for so many years !!!

I guarantee if you visit this doctor for a hangnail he will order an MRI and tell you he has no idea what could possibly be wrong until it’s done. He is a complete con artist. See you in court Pierre

My daughter suffered a horrible arm break at 2 1/2 years old. We honestly didn't think it would be fixable. Dr. Clothiaux saved her arm. He and the staff were so wonderful helping us through this traumatic time. We are so grateful for the work he does.

Dr. Clothiaux replaced my left knee September 10 and my right on December 22. We traveled to the Dominican Republic on Jan. 28 and made it fine although the only way to travel thru an airport is by wheelchair. It has been 10 weeks this Tuesday since my last surgery and I am doing things I haven't felt like doing in years, like yardwork, housework and helping my husband with the farm. The new knees have given me a whole new attitude on life and I am once again enjoying it. Thank you.
