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.

Nathan Summers will always be my favorite provider! He's knowledgeable, caring, takes his time with my questions and concerns, addressing each one. I wish every provider were this well trained!

I have nothing but good things to say about the staff at Orthopedics, who I have mainly dealt with. They have all been nothing but friendly, helpful and professional. I recommend them any time I have a chance.

Nate was wonderful! I felt respected and my opinions and feelings valued the entire visit, which is highly uncommon for me. I didn't feel pressured, he anticipated what I might want and was very happy to explain indepth the benefits and attractions of each of the options and the timing thereof. Even when I was a wimp about the shot that I got, he was kind and gentle and worked with me to get the job done. I look forward to returning for ongoing care because of his excellent "chairside manner".
