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.

Master surgeon!
Two and a half weeks ago I had my second anterior full hip replacement surgery done by Dr. Tardieu on the left side. My right hip was replaced about 7 months ago. After a week I was walking without a cane. Both scars are about 5 inches long. Several months after the first surgery I was able to resume my yoga postures including the bow pose, arching the back and stretching the muscles down the front of my thigh. No pain, no joint issues. I expect the same for my left side in a couple of months. I highly recommend Dr. Tardieu for joint replacement. Very helpful in answering all my questions and good bedside manner.

Dr. Tardieu is a Master Surgeon. Just 4 weeks after partial knee replacement I hiked 10 miles over easy to moderate terrain.
