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.

Dan cares
I made an appointment with Dan after experiencing hip and back pain. Dan was extremely attentive and promptly ordered all the necessary X-rays and an MRI. Once those came back he prescribed a cortisone shot and checked in with me leading up to the procedure and reached out to check on me after it was done. Dan really cares about his patients and goes above and beyond to help them. I can’t recommend Dan enough !

Great experience with my college athlete
Dan was thorough and very knowledgable with diagnosis, prognosis, and returning to college athletics.He was easy to reach and so helpful with physical therapy and any questions we had.He’s current in his knowledge and being an athlete himself understands the physical and emotional piece of injuries and return to play.

Best experience ! Grateful
Dr Melzar gets it.. he explained my condition to me and made sure I knew he was there to help! His positive energy is what I needed along with the treatment options he gave me. I have not had this much success since I was injured in 2016. Iam deeply grateful to him. I would highly recommend Dr Melzar if you want results !!

Above and Beyond
I called Dan after my soninjured his knee in a football game. Dan did not only take amazing care of my son in the office but communicating to him calmly and taking his time and care with him. He also made sure follow up appointments where made in a timely manner reducing stress for both me and my son. I can’t express how grateful to be treated with such professional care in such a sensitive emotional time.

Go See Dan!
I went to see Dan because I had pinching in my shoulder that was driving me crazy, and I was limited with weightlifting because I had little range of motion due to pain. Dan fixed the issue and I was back to working out very quickly. Not only is he awesome at what he does, but he’s also super kind and funny, which makes the visit that more enjoyable. It’s nice to know you can still show up and have someone take the time to listen to you, which is hard to find these days. Since my first visit, Dan is now my go-to for all things Ortho.

The best!
I can't thank Dan enough for helping me with my shoulder injury. He went above and beyond from explaining diagnosis, making my appointments, scheduling MRI, and giving my cortisone shot. Like most people, getting shots are scary, but I literally felt NOTHING! He truly made the process so easy.

100x Recommend!
I saw Dan for pain I had been having in my knee for years and after seeing him one time in March I haven’t had pain since! Dan provided excellent care and was extremely thorough when explaining exactly what was wrong with my knee, and in a way someone with no medical background would understand. He was also very understanding of my fear of needles and didn’t take it lightly. He talked me through the entire injection in a very soft and respectful manor. I can’t recommend him enough!!!

The best!
Dan is excellent! I tore my ACL skiing in Colorado, and he swiftly helped me understand the issue, the surgery solutions, and how to manage in the meantime. He encouraged my many questions, and always fielded them with knowledge and compassion. As an accomplished athlete himself, Dan knows firsthand how important returning to sport with strength and confidence is; he will be an excellent guide for anyone looking to restore their health and functionality following injury.

OUTSTANDING I HIGHLY RECOMMEND!
As a CrossFit & Fitness Gym owner/coach/instructor/trainer, mom, & completive athlete, my body goes through a lot. I deal w/shoulder issues & a lot of wear and tear. I recently competed and leading up to this, I developed a serious strain w/inflammation in & around both my shoulders. I called the best facility in the area, Ortho N.E., hoping I would be able to get right to the issue. Feeling very defeated that I wouldn't be able to compete after so much training, Daniel Trainor, PA-C, stepped right in. I was able to see him within 24 hours; he knew exactly how to treat me, along w/specific protocol to follow. He gave me after care exercises, follow up check ins, and because of the personal care he gave, I was able to compete & landed 26th in N.E and never lost a day of work. Daniel Trainor is 5 STAR and he truly cares about his patients. I am grateful to Dan for his outstanding work, in-depth knowledge & allowing me to continue to do what I love and to be PAIN-FREE! ~MC Alexander

Highly recommend!! Overall great experience and on the road to recovery as a result! Dan made it extremely efficient and easy to be treated for a sprained ankle this year. I was able to book a telemed appointment with him quickly and use the online portent to easily communicate all aspects of treatment! He took the time to understand the injury and help me through the right course of scans and treatment necessary to heal! Thank you Dan!
