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.

Worst experience ever, this guy just does not care
I saw this office in August for 20 min SALES appt he was 30 minutes late for, and despite him cutting my leg open and replacing a bone in October, it was the LAST TIME I SAW THIS CLOWN. I DID NOT SEE HIM AT THE HOSPITAL BEFORE OR AFTER SURGERY, AND AUG WAS THE LAST TIME I SAW HIM? Asked his LAME OFFICE three times for help, got NOTHING but BS and EXCUSES. HIS OFFICE STAFF ONLY COMPOUNDED THE PROBLEM AND MADE THINGS WORSE! I got one phone call trying to apologize from the office idiot who failed me, but NO MEDICAL HELP AT ALL!!! These people care ONLY about profits, not their patients. I now have a deformed left leg, dealing with TWO NEW PROBLEMS from October, and a horrible recovery that is being addressed by a different, BETTER Orthopedic Office. Five months after surgery, and I just started PT? OIH is a horrible medical office, it's more like the Orthopedic IDIOTS of Henderson. From the staff to the doctors, I would not recommend them under any circumstances.

Wonderful Orthopaedic Doctor
Dr. Robert Tait performed a successful Conformist Knee replacement on my right knee in 2018. He has a wonderful bedside manner and is supported by a friendly and professional staff. Since my knee replacement, I have sought Dr. Tait’s medical expertise and guidance for two other orthopedic issues. I have great trust in Dr. Tait and feel confident that he will only recommend the least invasive treatment approach when appropriate. Dr. Tait genuinely cares about his patients, and I would highly recommend him if you’re in need of an orthopedic surgeon.

Reverse Shoulder Replacement
My husband isn’t fond of doctors but he’s very impressed by Dr Tait & his entire staff. This is a very caring office & sometimes you have to wait but it’s worth it. My husband had surgery 8/28/23 & is doing extremely well. We’ve never been to an office where you are treated like an important person & not a number! Dr Tait doesn’t hesitate to answer any of your questions & he explains everything very well. I see Dr Tait for my knee & would never go anywhere else!

Simply the best!
We cannot say enough great things about Dr. Tait and his entire staff. My husband’s recent knee replacement was flawless and his recovery remarkable thanks to their incredible skill and expertise. I received a knee injection today and my ONLY complaint is the 2 1/2 hour lengthy appointment due to what seemed to be overscheduling at this busy and successful practice.

Great doctor, caring, patient and exceptionally skilled in knee and hip replacements using ConforMis customized patient specific technology. Can’t wait for my scheduled knee replacement. Dr Tait also replaced my husbands knee and hip and he was 100 percent satisfied and it was life changing for him. Totally active now. Totally recommend DrTait.

Dr Tait replaced my left hip in March. I'm healing well with no problems or complications. I appreciated the custom-fit implant and the front incision, which have meant that my mobility, inflammation and pain are so much better than my earlier right hip replacement. Dr Tait, besides being a surgeon who is praised by his peers, has an incredible support system and process. His PA Bryce Nelson is first class. His coordination with the hospital is seamless. He referred me to an excellent hematologist to control and monitor my warfarin. He provides extensive information about the preparation, the procedure itself, and the post-op recovery. His post-op home health care system provides nurses, a physical therapist and a 24- hour nurse hotline. His office support staff are always available and respond quickly. He uses the internet- and mobile-based CareSense system to provide tips, reminders and tasks to do. I've never been so confident or satisfied with a physician.

Wish I could have had it done sooner. Had to wait 1 1/2 years before getting scheduled due to Covid and Insurance auth. Had total knee replacement, 6 months post-surgical no pain, able to walk without cane/walker or brace. Can resume life again!!! Yeah!!! Now if they can remove the excess poundage everything can be wonderful. THANK-You for your help.

TKR in 2016 on skiing injury knee with 3 previous surgeries (different surgeon). Before knee was pretty bad - could barely walk. Now, over 4 years out and still perfect - can't tell the difference between normal knee and knee replacement knee, no problem hiking, walking a lot. Definitely good decision, wish I had done it earlier.

Dr. Tait is one of the most talented and gifted doctors, not to mention surgeons, I have ever had the opportunity to deal with. Because of his skill, personality, and incredible staff (especially Bryce), I have gone to Dr. Tait for my knees and hips. I would recommend Dr. Tait to anyone!!!
