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. Gerber
Dr. Gerber and his whole team are awesome to work with. I’ve had 4 total surgeries with him over 20 plus years and have never had a single issue. Everything has always gone smoothly from the procedures through the recovery. I’ve always felt super comfortable with his team and highly recommend him.

New knee, who dis?
I have nothing but praise for Dr Gerber and his entire staff. From start to finish and everything in between, everyone has been crystal clear in their instruction and explanation, appointments have been incredibly flexible and convenient. 2 weeks out from Full knee replacement and I couldn't be happier with the way it is healing and feeling. I just can't say enough, makes me want to get my other knee done

Exceptional Physician
He did my Mom’s knee replacement surgery ( both legs one two years ago and the other couple of weeks back). Very thorough and takes time to explain. He evens calls after the surgery to let me know how the surgery went. Had us well prepared prior to surgery and also after. Her knee that was done couple years back is fully functional and other one is on its way to being fully functional. My Mom couldn’t be more happier. Thank you Dr. Gerber!!

Great doctor
Dr. Garber explained my condition very thoroughly. He pointed out what’s happening but he read the x-rays to me and he suggested possible treatments. I like the fact that he didn’t push surgery right away but said it’s my choice when I need it. Wait until you need it. I was very happy about that instead of saying you have to get it done right away Office staff from the receptionist for check in to the check out wonderful. It’s a pleasure going to thank you again for taking care of me.

The Finest most caring Orthopedic Dr
I had the good fortune of having a recent visit with Dr Gerber. He is extremely thorough and thoughtful in his treatment plans. I have been to a few orthopedic surgeons in the area. Not one looked beyond the obvious to determine the true root cause of my pain. I am so pleased with the time he spent explaining all and answering my questions & concerns. I trust Dr Gerber more than any physician I have visited. He just cares and it is obvious. His background is brilliant. The office is run extremely well and I was taken on time and it was easy to make an appointment!

Great Doctor!
Dr. Gerber was referred to me 5 years ago when I had a meniscus tear. He made sure I got it resolved before a big trip I was going on. Fast forward and 2 knee replacements later, Dr. Gerber is kind and explains things well. Although he is very busy, I never feel rushed and always takes the time to make sure I have all my questions answered.

Shoulder
I have been a patient of Dr. Gerber’s for 19 years. He fixed my left shoulder and it’s doing great. I tore my rotator cuff this year and had surgery 5 weeks ago. I wouldn’t go to any other surgeon. Very knowledgeable and a great surgeon.
