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.

A Surgeon who “cares”!
Looking for a surgeon for knee replacement, look no further.He takes all the “extra” precautions to insure a successful outcome.

Dr Economedes is the best
Dr Economedes examined me for my 8th month TKA check and reassured me that I am progressing well in my recovery. As always, he answered my questions clearly and patiently and explained what to expect in the future. He has been extremely supportive both before and after surgery and I feel very blessed to have chosen him as my surgeon.

Hip replacement candidate
Short wait up front - thanks for that. Saddened that I can't get my hip replaced for 14-17 weeks. Wished I'd have known before I made the visit. Long time to be in pain with no alternative other then Acetaminophen.

Excellent Health Care Provider for my TKR
From initial appt with Dr. E up to, and through my total knee replacement, everything went amazingly well. His nurse, PA & the rest of the staff could not have been more helpful & kind. I am going to probably need my other knee done in the near future - no hesitation at all about having Dr. E do it. Quite honestly - this was one of the best medical procedure experiences I've ever had.
