In patients' words
"Not only is the wait time to be seen in this office excessive, but they consistently send incorrect bills."
— Yelp (Newport Orthopedic Institute)"I trust Dr. Nassif implicitly. He is super smart, and after having him do both a hip and knee replacement, I can say that he is extremely skilled."
— Birdeye (Dr. Nader A. Nassif)"I felt the appointment was rushed and impersonal. I didn't get the sense that he really wanted to get to know me... understand my situation."
— Healthgrades (Dr. Richard Lee)"As soon as I woke up from the operation my leg pain was gone. I took a lap around the hospital giggling like a little kid; I had not been able to walk without leg pain for over a year."
