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.

Would absolutely recommend Dr.Degan and his office

They are super efficient, a well oiled machine. I set up the appointment online. I was checked in, had X-rays, had a cortisone shot and was out in little over half an hour. Dr. DEGAN took time to explain the diagnosis and what to expect. Super efficient, would not hesitate to recommend.

My expeeience with Dr. Degan
Dr. Degan replaced my shoulder February 29, 2024. I experienced virtually no pain after surgery or since. Today was a 1 year check up. I am so happy with the replacement Dr Degan did, and he seemed pleased today with how well the recovery went. Thank you Dr Degan.

Fantastic doctor
Degan is great! No complaints to him and his amazing craft. But core needs a lot of work. They are very unorganized and patience, or at least from my experience, don’t get answers. More specifically on the financial side. Lastly - it really bothers me that core is affiliated with banner and I had no clue until it was too late. But again. Amazing doctor and glad he performed on my knee and this negativity has NOTHING to do with degan. I wish he’d go to a place that takes better care of their patience.

Left shoulder rotator cuff tear
Dr Degan and his staff are wonderful! They make sure your needs are taken care of, they have great follow up too! I have a tear in my rotator cuff and they have an orthopedic surgery to approach it conservatively and great physical therapist to get you back to yourself in no time at all… I truly trust my team. Thank you core Instute!
