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.

As a new patient in the Sedona office, my first experience was great! The staff are very good, and I was seen promptly with virtually no wait. Dr. Bonatus was friendly, took time to do a thorough exam, and patiently explained my diagnosis and treatment options. He did not push aggressive treatment with me, but made all treatment options know and available to me. It was a far more pleasant experience than most medical appointments. I will see him for all of my orthopedic needs.

Dr. Bonatus was very informative as to what he could offer me for my knees. I have had this problem for a while and have not wanted to have surgery and he gave me different options.

He is knowledgeable, informative and very skilled. I am in the process of making a complete recovery. Do not hesitate to see him for hip replacement issues.

About Me

care philosophy

There's nothing I want more than to helping patients recover from their injuries and return to normal function. I find a personal fulfillment in educating patients in a way that encourages them to make the right care choices for them and their lifestyle. Then, I tailor the treatment to meet their individual needs.
