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. Olvey performed surgery on my hand on extremely short notice after an emergency work accident. I could not have asked for a better surgeon or surgical team than what I was provided with. Amazing, professional and courteous at all times.

When I lived in Illinois, I was diagnosed with Dupuytren's contracture on my left hand pinkie. It developed slowly over several years.

Dr. Olvey performed surgery on my scaphoid, requiring a screw and bone graph. The bone had deteriorated enough that there was a high risk for failure - which would require the bone to be removed. Most people with this surgery rarely have a 100% recovery, but I can say that I am 100%, and even lift heavy weights. There was a self-inflected complication post surgery, and scheduling an emergency appointment was easy and timely. He was great to work with, very patient, friendly, and caring.
