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 previte was a tough guy to warm up to but I thank God he was put into my life. He was able to put my knee back together and I can walk again. So many doctors said that I would not be able to get around unless I was in a wheelchair or walker, but doctor previte made it happen. In my opinion he's the best doctor out there for getting it done right. It's been many years since I have seen him but I believe in him so much I'm going to be bringing my son to him hopefully. He is a great man and one hell of a surgeon in my opinion and the people on here with negative things to say really should take a look at themselves as the problems and not putting blame on others, Just my two cents worth.

Only a fly by night moves around so frequently. I just had to go to another surgeon, and endure another surgery, to fix the mess this guy made of my knee. He is not even a Medical Doctor. Pick somebody else! A total hack.

This is the worst expierence I have ever been through. I was referred to this "doctor" an feel I wasted my time. He comes at you speaking like a robot an makes you feel like your talking to an automated phone call. He has moved to three different offices within a year with not one similar employee. He schedule my surgery then without notification I show up ready to go only to find out that there was a sewage spill in the operating room. Not once did I see him post op on my visits.
