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.

Excellent and unique
Dr Loncarich took his time to making sure I was giving the best treatment during my visit. He took multiple X-ray to figure out my foot pain and explained in a professional way. That is very unique.

I meet Dr Loncarich for my ankle fracture
During my visit, Dr. Loncarich was very attentive and being a good listener is a great quality in health care field. After his assessment, he demonstrated enough patience to answer all my questions and provides reliable answers. He sound confidence the way he was answering and addressing all my concerns. He prescribed what I needed. It was so funny that even after he left the examination room, and still standing in the clinic hallway, I came out and I was still talking to him, he was very cool headed while talking to me, even though he was getting ready to see another patient. Also his staff are also amazing and very welcoming and polite.

I have been a patient since February 14, 2022. I find him to be very proficient both professionally and personally. He not just focused on the injury, he makes sure you are informed and content morally. I would refer all to seek him out for his expertise.

Extremely experienced and explained everything
Dr. Loncarich is friendly and has years of experience treating feet. He went into detail regarding the issues that I am having and the options for treatment. I saw him five years ago and he said that I would be back when the pain was overwhelming and he was right. Highly recommend Dr. Loncarich.

Great Dr
Rarely have to wait long. Spends the time to explain what going on, all your options, even ask you to consider what is important and what outcome you are looking for. Make’s sure you understand the possible outcomes. Great bedside manner.

Our Miracle Doctor
My daughter injured her ankle while training horses. The first 2 surgeons (Memorial Hermann) messed it up even more than the initial injury. Dr. Loncarich was the 3rd surgeon and the last. He was our miracle! She is pain free and can return to what she loves doing! Highly recommend him!

Broken foot
Dr Loncarich is a very caring Dr. I was happy to see that he doesn’t jump to surgery for a broke foot. He also noticed I had a hand injury and immediately got me in to see a Dr for that injury. I was very happy with all aspects of the Orthopedic Group. I highly recommend.

Round Two
This was my second visit with Dr. Loncarich. We met late last year to review my medical issue and scheduled surgery. Unfortunately, I contracted COVID just prior to the scheduled surgery date and had to cancel. Thankfully, my condition remained unchanged, and manageable. I’ve had a second visit this week, we confirmed options and I selected the one which best suites me. Surgery is now rescheduled for August.
