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.

Two hand surgeries
Dr. Mencias has done both of my two hand surgeries. I wouldn’t want any other surgeon. He’s an excellent doctor and surgeon. I’m so glad he’s my doctor and would recommend him to anyone who has trouble with their hands.

Yesterday I had a PRP procedure. The nurse made 9 unsuccessful attempts to draw my blood then Dr Mencias got it done. I asked him if the procedure would be painful, he said No. In actuality it was more painful than when I was shot in the back in VietNam. He deliberately lied! I would never trust his words!

Dr Mencias has been absolutely fantastic treating my hands and arms post car accident. He has done everything he could to help them non-surgically first, he is caring, compassionate, listens so well to my concerns. When he finally determined I needed surgery on both my arms, the procedures both went perfectly. I cannot recommend him, Joann, and his nursing staff (plus OT at SB Ortho), enough!!! Highly recommend, you will be in excellent hands!!

Dr. Mencias did my carpel tunnel surgery and cubital tunnel surgery yesterday. The only time I saw him was two weeks ago in his office. He did not talk to me about anything before surgery he came in and put a big "X" on my right arm and that was it. I just don't think it is to much to come in say hi ask if I have any questions or worries. As far everyone else at allied surgery center they were amazing especially my post op nurse Angie.
