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 Naidu performed surgery on my little finger for dupuytren's contracture. He did an excellent job! I had no pain at all and it has healed beautifully! He is an excellent surgeon and I would recommend him without reservation.

×Post a ResponseAre you Dr. Naidu?
Dr Naidu has done two surgeries of me, the first went well but I noticed one attribute that is missing with him. Once surgery is over and cast is remove you no longer see him or can contact him with concerns. There is NO email portal and trying to talk to him is impossible because you only talk to his PA or whatever (?). Once surgery is over you're finished, regardless of any issues you might have. I have been having issues with the second surgery and I tried sending him a personal letter and he never contacted me. Very uncaring. I have had numerous orthopedic surgeries and never confronted a surgeon that did not have a portal so you could ask questions or have a surgeon who would talk/call you personally. Very disappointed

I just can't say enough good things about Dr. Naidu's practice. Very helpful and caring staff. Dr. Naidu has seen me for a few appointments and steroid injections on my torn rotator cuff. He is brilliant, and is guiding me down a pre-surgical path, and taking the time to explain my options in detail. I would highly recommend him without reservation.

Dr. Naidu is an exceptional doctor and his support team are amazing too! I have been seeing Dr. Naidu for about 5 years for thumb arthritis. He has always been very kind and listens to my concerns. Because of his care, I will always be able to give him two thumbs up!!! A big thank you to him, his technician Scott and his secretary Jane!

I have spent my life (age 57) doing manual labor. Doctor Naidu has operated on both wrists, both elbows, and removed a bone in each thumb due to traumatic arthritis. He urged me to wait as long as possible before undergoing the work, he's not "scalpel happy". He is extremely skilled, takes his time to listen to concerns, and just a generally warm human being. I would recommend him and his staff without reservation. In fact, I have to at least 2 other people.

I had both rotator cuffs repaired and with a lot of hard work on my part I now have full range of motion again with the ability to do pull ups and push ups again. Don’t settle for “Frozen Shoulder” from other doctors. I also had both carpal tunnel repairs and have regained full use and nearly 100% strength.

Dr Naidu has taken care of me, for a lesion on my hand that others had trouble identifying. It turned out being precisely what he diagnosed, and he figured it out just with a careful examination. He didn't need any expensive imaging or biopsy to make the diagnosis. And it got better with simple treatment just as he predicted. And then he saw my son for a hand fracture. He gave same day service and was as great with my teenager as he was with me! And my son has healed just right! Thanks!!
