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.

This visit was one of my best. Sometimes I haven't received as much information as I would like. This appointment went very well as Dr Mahmood got into specifics of a possible 3rd surgery.

Absolutely Wonderful
I've been to see the doctor twice, both times were great! He's always been very easy to talk to and I value his expert opinion. I've had to have a minor surgery to correct my hand issue and was very pleased with the entire process, start to finish. His staff are just okay. I woke up sick one morning and had to cancel my appointment, I rescheduled during that call. Three weeks later I received a bill for $25. I was very upset by that, I was legitimately sick with the flu and thought it would be best to stay away from the office but according to the girls I was a no show. I'm going to talk to the doctor about it, they should know better than that.

A wonderful Doctor
I didn’t ave to wait long at all. Dr Mahmood is a caring and kind doctor. He listens and does all he can to find answers and options for you. He is honest and tells you what would be best. I wish he was a primary doctor also.

DR. MAHMOOD IS AN ORTHOPAEDIC SURGEON ROCK STAR!
Dr. Mahmood is an Orthopaedic Surgeon ROCK STAR! He has a wonderful bedside manner and a unique way of making you not only feel comfortable but confident in his diagnosis & recommended care plan. Dr. Mahmood is not quick to push surgery or drugs. He listens to your concerns and, takes the time to thoroughly explain your diagnoses & possible treatment options. It is evident that Dr. Mahmood is wicked smart and very well-versed in his specialty but at the same time, very humble & kind. You can tell that his top priority is about helping you feel whole again. Unfortunately, it is uncommon to find a gem in the medical profession like Dr. Mahmood these days. Had I not stumbled upon him, I honestly would have traveled to Miami for both of my surgeries. Finally, the staff that works directly with him & the young lady that handles his appointments/checkouts are also very kind and extremely efficient. After both of my surgeries, I can, without pain, give him & his staff, two thumbs up :)

great experience
Dr. Mahmood is a caring and compassionate medical provider. My shoulder surgery went extremely well. He came in after surgery and explained what he did and the outcome. I. am very pleased with him as a surgeon and as a person. Dr. Mahmood's staff is a reflection on him very compassionate and professional. I was treated as a person not just another patient. Two thumbs Up...

Dr. Mahmood is the BEST!!
Dr.Mahmood is very caring, he explains exactly what he is going to do and how everything will work. I had a reverse shoulder replacement and I have to say I was a little scared going into this. I am an avid Pickleball player and I’m not ready to give up playing. Dr.Mahmood reassured me that I would play again and I am now back out on the courts with all my friends and enjoying the sport that I love!! He and his whole staff are terrific!
