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.

Left and right knee replacements
Dr Belmar always asks about pain and gets excited about how well my knees are doing. He listens to any questions I have and answers them in ways that I can understand. (normal language, not doctor jargon). My left knee did so well that I had my right knee replaced four months later.

Dr Belmar in my opinion is absolutely a great physician! He’s extremely professional and yet he’s so very concerned and passionate about my wellbeing. He without a doubt was able to give me a second chance at a more active lifestyle.I recommend him to anyone who has similar needs as I have experienced.

Knee Revision
Dr. Belmar worked for 6 hours, twice as long as he expected, during my surgery to be sure that my knee revision was successful. He was meticulous, and because of his skills, training, and experience, I have a functioning and pain-free leg.

Life Changing Surgery
Dr. Belmar is extremely capable and caring surgeon who I highly recommend. Over a year ago, I could barely walk due to extreme hip pain. Dr. Belmar replaced my hip taking great care before and after the operation. I just completed a 4 mile walk in the mountains with no pain. Thank you Dr. Belmar.

Just completed my 4th joint replacement with Dr. Belmar. My right knee; and within 6 weeks, fully mobile--playing golf, hiking an hour, digging/planting in the yard. And six weeks before my surgery could not even hardly take a step---absolutely amazing
