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.

I saw Dr. Wright for a second opinion for a full tear rotator cuff after the first surgeon recommended a reverse shoulder replacement due to my age (70) and that I am female. Dr. Wright reviewed my MRI and said he believed a repair was more appropriate, as all the other structure looked healthy. The surgery was May 2 (and it was discovered that my shoulder was also partially frozen) and within 4 months I had full use and strength of my shoulder. I would highly recommend Dr. Wright!

Dr. Wright is a physician of honor and integrity. His cautious and candid approach guided me toward the least invasive (and least painful, and least expensive) treatment options. He did this for my good rather than the good of his business ledger. Importantly, he was correct in his assessment: after a few short weeks of intense physical therapy, I am pain-free and have more mobility than in years. He inspired confidence and hope by taking time to listen to me. Recommend 100%. So thankful.

I never had problems with any issues with hips, legs & etc. When this occurred I was getting suggestions from my co-workers. I received the most comments on what a fantastic doctor he was. I contacted his office for an appointment and the rest is history. My knee joint was replaced and the other had this gel type shot which worked great and didn't need any surgery. He was easy to talk to and has fantastic bed side manor.
