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.

excellent care, as always.

This was one of the best Dr. visits I have had in a while. Everything ran on time. Dr. was friendly, interested in me and not in a rush. Handed me off for an xray, that happened quickly, and then I met with the Dr. a second time and then we were done. Check out was efficient. I was impressed.

Late, but worth the wait.
Dr. Grossman was exactly an hour late and gave no explanation. Otherwise, he could not have been nicer. He spent about 30 mins with me, and fully explained what he saw as my problem. Even suggested a second opinion and consultation. We also spent some time just talking a bit. If he is this attentive to all his patients, it is no wonder he was late. I HIGHLY recommend him.

Great staff members. Dr Grossman has been my Orthopedic doctor for years. Took good care of me during my very active female years and now caring for specific issues in my late 79s. Every recommendation for treatment has been ideal. Kept me from pain meds by non invasive pain management procedures

Dr Grossman
I’m two months post knee replacement and I couldn’t be doing any better. I could walk easily after four days. Dr Grossman is a wonderful surgeon and a kind person. He takes the time to answer questions and explain procedures pre and post treatment. He is terrif and I recommend him to everyone.

Nothing but the highest marks for Dr Grossman and everyone at the clinic. He takes time to discuss options for your needs as well as the world in general. He is my first line of defense with anything orthopedic.

You know, you never want to see your orthopedist too often. Just saying. However, when it is absolutely positively necessary, I look forward to seeing RG! He sits down, looks directly at you in the eye, actively listens, then examines, inspires positive vibes and curative intuition. Lucky the patient who gets to see him.

Dr. Grossman and his staff promptly accommodated my request for an appointment for an office visit after suffering an acute ankle injury. Within 45 minutes from making the appointment I was received by staff who assisted me with the preparation of admitting forms and was quickly ushered to x-ray by friendly and competent technician. Dr. Grossman read the x-rays, diagnosed the problem, and explained it to me. We then reviewed my treatment options and a member of his staff cheerfully fitted me with a support boot. Staff then quickly helped me with checking out and discussed a follow up appointment with me. I was admitted, diagnosed, and treated by Dr. Grossman and his office in about an hour. Far better than the prospect of an emergency room experience.

Dr. Grossman has put me back together before. I now have a broken bone in my ankle and need surgery. So, once again, he has to fix me so I can walk again. He has a good sense of humor and nice bedside manner. More importantly, based on my extensive experience with him (surgery, shots, P.T.), I know Dr. Grossman can do it.
