Rather than going ahead and…read moredoing it to make another car payment, he was honest to say it's not time, we'll address the situation when it's more appropriate. Sure enough, two years later it was time and I went in with the most confidence I'd every had in a Dr. There was a problem during the operation (nothing to do with him) and he took the time and expertise to fix it and it's been perfect. I can't say enough about his talent, friendliness, professionalism and knowledge. I can't imagine anyone would go wrong choosing Dr Low.

Dr Myerthall replaced my hip in 2013 and revised it in 2016 due to dislocations. I've had…read moresubstantial pain since the initial THA and continue to have substantial pain day and night. After the hip revision in 2016, I returned to his office to have my excessive operation pain evaluated. Dr Myerthall was not there. His assistant, without doing any testing, told me that there was nothing wrong with me and that I was feeling normal post-op pain. I knew there was a serious problem. I ended up in ER where I was diagnosed with a DVT (blood clot) and an infection, at which time I was admitted into hospital. I'm very disappointed that I continue to have serious pain, worse than before my hip operations almost 6 years ago. For reasons unknown to me, Dr Myerthall has decided to ignore me. It's not like in his video where he "puts the patient first" and his goal is to "get an otherwise healthy individual out of pain". That describes me. If not for this bad hip, I would be out hiking and biking, which I can no longer do. Walking is now a challenge for me. I have been a patient at a pain clinic for several years where I have received numerous spine injections and nerve ablations. I'm still in pain 24/7 and will soon be seen at the Mayo Clinic in Rochester MN where I hope to make some progress on my hip pain issues.

Also I might add I'm a veterinary orthopedic surgeon.

So happy to live in Scottsdale Arizona and to have such great medical care…read more I have been a patient of Dr. Galat for over a year and I am recently recovering from a partial knee replacement surgery. Dr. Galat has done an amazing job. Just after 5 weeks from surgery, I feel I am a new man as I have recovered 100% of my flexibility and am working on my strength to be able to live a normal life again without pain and any kind of physical limitations. Thank you Dr. Galat.

Ok. The pain in my knee was so bad I was all but dragging my leg along so I relented. The internet research gave me a couple names that were interesting. My first appointment was with Dr. Galat at Renovation Orthopaedics. He answered all my questions, explained the process with visual aids and put my mind at ease. I read robotic knee replacements had a much higher success rate. Dr. Galat works with a robot and he explained (with visual aids) how all that works. Fascinating! Couldn't wait for my surgery. I had no fears after talking with Dr. Galat so was raring to go. I had become knock-kneed due to the loss of cartilage on the lateral side of my knee. Long story short, I walked out of his office after surgery with a straighter leg and a new knee. 4 days after I was in physical therapy, 5 days later I cast aside the walker he provided and 4 weeks later I was driving. Today is my 6 week anniversary and I'm walking and climbing stairs like a normal person. My pain level is down to less than 1 and my life is back to normal. My thanks to God for steering me to Dr. Galat and his staff. To say I'm happy with the whole experience is a gross understatement. Choose him, you'll be glad you did.

Then the actual surgery at St. Joseph's Outpatient Center--most impressive in all respects--an array of professional , competent, and personable staff team members--seamless flow from check in to check out. Excellent communication and support. I hope not to have occasion to have surgery again. But if I do, there is no other group and system I would go to.

If I ever need surgery again, I will definately choose Dr. Castillo.

Dr Marciano did my low back discectomy. On initial visit he let me tell my whole story and ask me…read morewhat I wanted to do. Very patient. He had already seen my MRI and knew what needed to be done. 5 star approach. His surgical coordinator went over everything at length. Entire staff very polite.

I had radiating pain from back to hip to quad that was level 10 completely debilitating. He also invited another Barrows surgeon to sit in on case, 2 sets of eyes and ears.

They were right: great experience from the beginning thru surgery and postop management and professionalism. You can do the pre appointment paperwork online to streamline the first visit.

I chose surgery and the process of scheduling was a breeze and the entire event went off perfectly. Recovery was precisely as I was told and the results obviously great even in the recovery room - perfect outcome. As an MD myself working on the OR I would not hesitate to recommend Dr Marciano.

I was referred to Dr Gillespie by my PCP for treatment of a double inguinal hernia caused by…read moreblunt-force trauma to my abdomen. Scheduling my appointments was very easy. Allowances were made for the distance that we had to travel from home, and the scheduling staff offered to keep me updated by phone and text in the event of cancellations prior to my scheduled surgery. There were no delays at any stage of the procedure. We were asked to arrive 20 minutes early, which we did, and I was called within 5 minutes of my arrival. Everyone with whom I had any interactions, from the receptionist to the intake nurse to Dr Gillespie and his assistant and their intern, treated me as if I were the Most Important Patient of the Day. At no time did I feel rushed or ignored. In my first consultation with Dr Gillespie, he determined very quickly that I was not ready for surgery. I was still in considerable pain from the initial trauma suffered about two weeks prior, so he prescribed a six-week waiting period and an inflammation reduction regimen. Although I was initially disappointed, he quickly assured me that he was interested only in delivering the best outcome for my specific condition, all things considered, and my desire to "hurry up and get this over with" was not one of his priorities. I left convinced and enthusiastically determined to follow his guidance. Everyone with whom I had any interactions throughout the procedure presented themselves in a thoroughly professional manner, as one would expect in a hospital setting. They were all dressed appropriately, identified themselves or each other to me, and showed respect for my privacy, especially during some of the more embarrassing moments of the pre- and post-op examinations. While I've been exceptionally lucky, not having had that much experience with hospitals and surgeries, I found it very interesting that Dr Gillespie had meaningful, real-time discussions between himself, his PA and the accompanying intern while we were all together there in the examination room. I felt a bit like a back-row auditor at med school as they discussed between themselves my case, his diagnosis, and the actual surgical procedures that he was recommending. Way better than Chicago Med! The procedure itself - robotic-assisted laparoscopic hernia repair - went perfectly, I'm told, and I've just completed Week Four of recovery. While I remain grudgingly committed to "doing nothing" for six weeks, I am virtually pain-free and haven't taken any opioids or analgesics at all, not even Tylenol, for the last five days. I am forever grateful that Dr Gillespie delayed surgery for six weeks, allowing the pain and inflammation from the initial trauma that caused the hernia to subside, otherwise I would have been recovering from both the injury and the surgery at the same time.
