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 cannot recommend Dr. Steven Puccio enough! He is truly the best doctor, especially when it comes to orthopedic spine surgery. My brother's experience with Dr. Puccio was nothing short of life-changing. Before the surgery, Dr. Puccio provided the highest level of care by thoroughly explaining all the details and setting clear expectations. He took the time to go over every aspect of the procedure, ensuring my brother felt informed and comfortable. My brother had been suffering from critical pain for a long time and had consulted several other doctors without any success in identifying the issue. It was only after meeting Dr. Puccio that we finally found the solution we were desperately seeking. Dr. Puccio's expertise allowed him to pinpoint the exact problem and recommend the right course of action. The surgery he performed was a turning point for my brother's health. After the procedure, his pain was virtually nonexistent, and he felt like a new person. We are incredibly grateful to Dr. Puccio for his exceptional skill, compassionate care, and life-changing surgery. If you are in need of an orthopedic spine surgeon, I wholeheartedly recommend Dr. Steven Puccio. You can trust that you are in the best hands with him. Thank you, Dr. Puccio, for making such a positive impact on my brother's life and restoring his health.

I would not recommend Dr. Puccio for the following reasons: 1) Did not properly diagnose my problem. 2) Does not respond in a timely manner to messages left at his office.

Dr. Puccio is a superb orthopedic surgeon. He was able to "reconstruct" the lumbar area of my spine that had kept me almost immobile for two years. He is meticulous, caring and a "straight shooter". In other words, everything that you want in a surgeon who literally has your life in his hands! (I've already recommended him!)

Stay away from this hack ! He recommended I have 2 more discs removed after I had 2 removed from another doctor and continued to have pain. I got a third opinion and was told to do nothing, wait and am pain free now. I was told by my referring pain management doctor that this guy is aggressive ! He should work in a butcher shop !

Dr. Puccio is an excellent diagnostician. It may appear that he is not listening but he is already steps ahead of the conversation. I have found him compassionate and truly competent. Twice he has given me my life back. Once I trusted someone else with my treatment and it was a disaster. He fixed the problem with a new hip . The therapists and a chiropractor could not believe my recovery. I was back to limited work in 2 weeks not months. I would trust anyone's care to Dr. Puccio.

Dr. Pucc Iowa is honest, and right to the point. He doesn't hold anything back like some doctors do. He is always courteous, caring and an excellent doctor/surgeon.

I have recommended several family members and friends to Dr. Puccio. He is honest, no nonsense, and knows his field. He performed surgery on my husband and myself in delicate situations and pretty extreme situations. What he told us to expect was spot on as well as the road to recovery. While any surgery is a last resort, he was thoughtful. thorough and knowledgeable throughout our extended care. His rough exterior and initial demeanor cover a very caring individual. Very happy with our care!

Dr. Puccio is an amazing surgeon. The day of my consultation it was determined that I needed emergency surgery. I was taken directly to my hospital room. After he was finished with patients, I was taken to the OR and he didn't finish until after 10:00 p.m. He is a no non-sense type of person. His P.A. compliments his stern disposition. He is here to help us in pain, fix us and send us on our way~ very successful at what he did for my back and then 3 years later- my neck too.
