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.

ACL / MCL Tear
Dr. Gilbert & his entire team were all professional, knowledgeable & informative with me regarding my knee procedure pre / post surgery. As a result, I was very relaxed & comfortable going into surgery. Dr. Gilbert repaired both the ACL & MCL tears in my right knee with no complications.

Dr. Gilbert thank you for performing my surgery!!
Dr. Gilbert took me through every step of my surgery. He explained the procedure detail for detail. He was so wonderful and considerate to me and my family. He made me feel very comfortable; I was anxious about the anesthesia before entering the operating room. I arrived in the room, and he had one of my favorite gospel songs playing. It put a big smile on my face, and I completely calmed down. I appreciate his professionalism and his excellent bedside manner. I believe he is an asset to the Kaiser Team!!

Very Great Provider
I had to have two labrum repairs and Dr. Gilbert took great care of me. Everything was fully explained before and after by himself and staff. I'm glad that this procedure was done by Dr. Gilbert. Even when I was wheeled into the OR I felt at ease.Thank you for doing an outstanding job with my care!!

Right Rotor Cuff Repair
Dr Gilbert & his surgical team are the very BEST. I was nervous & Dr Gilbert ensured me I was in very good hands. He asked what type of music I liked, when I entered the OR Pattie was playing. The team that I had not met introduced themselves & again assured me I would be well taken care of. I received several calls to check on my progress & to see if i needed anything, to include a call from Dr Gilbert. Yes lwas well cared for from the front desk to my escort to my car. Thank you so much

After having ankle surgery on Friday, I can tell you that the quality of care I received far surpasses that statement.

Thank you so much for making both myself and my husband feel comfortable both before and after surgery. You are an awesome professional who I will always be grateful too. Kindly say thank you to the team who took care of me, from my arrival to my departure. Care Philosophy Having spent his career at the forefront of his field, Dr. Corey A. Gilbert is dedicated to providing his patients with the best quality care, the newest surgical techniques, and the latest protocols in conservative and operative care.

Dr. G is the best !!!
Dr. Gilbert is a phenomenal surgeon and a joy to work with. I’ve been having difficulties with my knee for a year. He motivated me to go with the least invasive approach and I was doing well. However, I reinjured myself which resulted in me needing surgery. YIKES! I was so scared, but Dr. Gilbert and his team talked with me about the things I was worried about to make me feel better about the procedure. I had two successful surgeries under the care of Dr. Gilbert. Because he’s so popular and have a high rating :-) it can be difficult booking appointments with him. But he’s worth it and for emergency cases he will squeeze you into his schedule. I highly recommend him to anyone. He listens to your concerns and address them based on his medical expertise! Thanks for everything Dr. G !

Knee surgery
My visit with Dr. Gilbert and is team for my surgery was a wonderful one. From the moment I enter the front desk to the team that was preparing me for surgery was very professional and respectful and caring. They made sure I had everything that I needed . When I was going into the surgery room it was so pleasant. I didn’t have any fear at all. I want to thank them all for caring for me.

Superlative physician and surgeon
I consulted with Dr. Gilbert for a SLAP tear. First of all, I felt heard by Dr. Gilbert. I consulted with other specialists about this same injury and I didn't feel heard by all of them. In due course Dr. Gilbert performed an arthroscopy on my torn labrum. I'm recovering now. Dr. Gilbert was excellent and eased my anxiety about the procedure. He was patient with questions and even offered to play music I liked in the OR! I was not expecting to hear from Dr. Gilbert so soon after the procedure but he called within about 48 hours to follow up. In sum, Dr. Gilbert is expert and has an easy manner. I could not be happier with the level of care from him or my experience generally.

I was referred to Dr. Gilbert and he was not only amazing, he was awesome and he listened to my concerns and found the problem and from the time I stepped in the operating room until I left, my experience was top notch. He is definitely the doctor you want and his staff is amazing as well. Thank you so much for giving me my leg back and now I'm in the process of healing with no pain, so YESSSSS to Dr. Gilbert hands down.
