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 Spencer is a great doctor. Took time to explain everything clearly to me.

Dr. George was wonderful. He was attentive and understood why I was there to see him. He offered clear options to manage my current level of pain until it is time to move forward with a more involved surgery. He was clear about the benefits and risk. I would absolutely recommend him to anyone else in need of ortho care

Dr. George was exceptionally understanding and patient with my memory loss and past bad experiences with a knee injury. I am confident that this knee surgery will be 100% successful. He explained the options and I feel we came up with the best plan. The injection has relieved my pain and will facilitate my exercise program to effect the best outcome for surgery.

Surgery only and nothing else
Went in for the knee consult insisted on by my provider. I kept telling her seeing a surgeon is a waste of time unless you're in the emergency room. I've been told that repeatedly by Orthopedic surgeons. Unless you're wreathing in pain, you don't need surgery or have a need to see an orthopedic surgeon as all they do, is surgery. Doc George was no different He was very nice, but I left with no plan of care or assistance in any way, while being told my knee is bone on bone. It swells, is achy, but apparently no need to do anything about it, at all. I felt stupid for even going to this appointment.

What could be improved
