What patients say

Patients praise

  • Doctors are described as skilled/technical surgeons
  • Good communication: explains conditions/treatments clearly and answers questions
  • Friendly, kind demeanor and taking time with patients
  • Positive surgical outcomes and recovery (e.g., joint replacements)
  • Help with scheduling/access to care (squeezed in / appointments on short notice)

Common complaints

  • At least one orthopedic clinic location is reported as closed (Summit Orthopedics on Yelp), which is a service disruption rather than a provider-care complaint

In patients' words

"“They ordered diagnostic testing, squeezed me into the schedule and then planned my surgery expeditiously.”"
