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.

Competent Hand Surgeon
I have had two trigger finger surgeries from Dr. Siverhus. The fact that I have returned to him for the second surgery explains why I have given him 5-stars. It is a simple fact that I would recommend him.

Dr. Siverhus
Dr. Siverhus is the most caring doctors I’ve seen. He did a very thorough exam on my hand. He actually took the time to explain everything to me in detail, making sure that he answered all of my questions. His staff was great too. Staff was very friendly and easy to talk with.

I recently was diagnosed & treated for dominant hand carpal tunnel. I am recovering from surgery going a month ago. I can not say enough good things about Dr Siverhus. He successfully treated me for kienbock's many years ago on the same hand. Like many, I use my hands to make a living & doctor Siverhus successful diagnoses & treatments has allow me to continue in my chosen career for over 20 years. I trust him to take the correct action in a empathetic, professional, & very skilled manner. Thank you, but I hope I never have to be treated again...

completely thorough and trustworthy. I went in for nerve problems in right hand, since no ortho doc would look at my hands. He did ulnar nerve release on hand, and I was so pleased with surgery result, that I trusted him to do growth on left index finger that had bothered me for a while. Excellent surgeon, excellent stitches, and quick recovery! He did pre op testing so we both knew what was going to happen. A complete professional, I highly recommend him, and his personal assistant, Kelly.
