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.

The ideal provider
What do you expect from a healthcare provider? That he's knowledgeable, listens well, communicates clearly, synthesizes the information quickly and recommends options, professional, and fast. Joseph Pigorsh is all of those things plus available for an appointment on short notice. He's the standard everyone should strive to achieve. How fortunate am I.

Assuring exam!
OAM is conveniently located near Meyer Gardens. Plenty of handicap and regular parking close to the front door. All personnel at this facility were plesant and helpful to be in the right place at the right time. Plenty of seating for patients and visitors. My doctor and x-ray technician were informative in all aspects of my exam. Dr Pigorsh, PA listened to my situation and ask pertinent questions to understand my aches and concerns about the hip replacement rehabilitation program needed to make me more stable and functional for everyday life. My x-ray showed the replacement is intact and looks normal. The maintenance I need will come from continuing Physical Therapy to strengthen muscles and build indurance to achieve a normal gate as I walk. A very reassuring visit. Thanks to the OAM team of professionals.

Knee Pain
Was greeted after a short wait and after the check in Joseph was there in a couple minutes. Told him about my pain and he suggested injections and medication, the day after the injections the pain was down considerably and I hadn’t started on the medication yet. Only my first visit but so far so good!

Very professional and caring
Nate was very thorough and went over the xray and described the injury and treatment I needed. When I hurt it later in the week he called me and prescribed a new medication. He will also be seeing me for my follow up appointment.

Excellent and very knowledgeable--caring also!
I thought I had pulled a hamstring in my left knee, but he diagnosed me with a torn meniscus. That's why it's important to get a proper medical diagnosis! A torn meniscus is very painful and makes it difficult to walk, but he gave me crutches to help me walk, and I'll start physical therapy soon. Thank you so much! I'll definitely go there again for any other orthopedic issues.

Great care from Joseph Piggish and OAM NOW team
Visited OAM Now clinic was was seen very quickly. PA was great in explaining what was going on and quickly got me x-rays. My questions were answered and help to alleviate my concerns especially as I've never had any back or spine issues. OAM Now is a great service staffed with good people.
