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. Carn replaced my right knee in September 2013. I've had absolutely no pain with the knee since that time. He is a great doc with a pleasant, caring personality. Dr. Carn also did a hip replacement for my wife several years ago. She has been happy as a clam with it.

He was fine in the beginning but when my knee was having trouble after the six weeks after the eight weeks he told me there was nothing else he could do so I told him to refer me out to Dr Cross he just likes to take your money and when he’s done after six weeks he doesn’t care about you anymore I would not recommend this doctor to anyone 0 Rating

I have had both knees and a hip replacement by Dr. Carn with excellent results. I strongly recommend Dr. Carn for anyone seeking knee or hip replacement. This is not “walk in the park” surgery!!! The end result is up to you!!! PT is a must!!!

I needed l. hip arthroplasty. Dr. Carn provided an excellent experience with the procedure. Yes, I did end up in rehab, but in my particular case it was a good thing for me. Dr. Carn knows exactly what he is doing, and I highly recommend him.
