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.

Extra Bonus
I was in for my first physical with Dr. Ide when she asked me if I didn't mind if Dr. Saben could join. I said sure! I had a pelvic pain problem for three years and lower back pain for many years. He listened to my history and shared his recommendations. I have seen many orthopedic doctors over the span of my lifetime, but Dr. Saben was the most compassionate orthopedic doctor I have encountered. Thank you very much, Dr. Saben

Best Doctor I've had yet!
I've had a few doctors over the years, I'm 56 yrs old. Dr Saben is by far the best I've had so far :) He even returns messages well into the evening at times. He has exceptional work ethics and medical knowledge.

Dr. Saben has a lot of compassion, which makes him an active listener. He has always given me accurate answers, with detailed explanations and options. When I leave his office I have a very clear understanding of all the issues discussed during our visit. I would recommend him to anybody.

With a background in sports, Dr. Saben is the perfect choice to handle any active lifestyle. Injuries or injury prevention are usually quickly diagnosed by this athlete himself and promotes strength training suggestions to strengthen supporting muscles. Very nice and easy to get along with and talk to.
