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.

My experience was excellent. I have seen him on numerous problems and results very positive. Dr Cornis is a good listener and compassinate person.

Incompetent staff ignores the details I report. They call me to suggest "page-1" obvious remedies after I've already been doing it all for 14 months but the remedies do not help. I requested Dr. Caronis call me directly to address communication concerns and instead his PA calls me from my message. Calling back their office takes you 10-15 minutes to get past their phone-op gatekeeper to then make you wait more as they type your message, often inaccurately. What happens if you undergo surgery and develop post-op issues and you must go through these awful communication channels?

Dr Coronis is an exceptional professional. He repaired my ankle in which the bone was badly broken I was supposed to have been casted for about two and a half months. I told him I didn't want to be casted. He rebuilt the ankle with nickel-plated surgical stainless prosthetic plates and screws. It was wrapped in an elastic bandage, once the Staples and stitches were removed, I was able to put on my western boots that I had fitted with extra supports. The level of expertise in which Doc had accomplished his task, is unmatched and allowed me to walk on an ankle that should have had me bedridden for two and a half to three months. Like I said, I was walking in my boots within three weeks. in that 3 weeks, with all of the Staples and stitches, I had minimal pain and only had to take pain medication the first couple of nights! The knee high Tommy copper support socks are a must. Trust me, go to the best!

It was easy to get an appointment and Dr. Caronis did not try and rush through everything. He presented all the options clearly. I highly recommend him.

I have been a patient of Dr. Caronis for many years. I have ALWAYS found him to be kind, caring, and very professional. Over the years, I have had issues with my neck, shoulder, back, and knee, and has always prescribed what I needed to do to take care of my problem. He works very well with Dr. Lori Recker to take good care of my needs. I would highly recommend Dr. Caronis!!

My surgery went well. Thanks doc. Besides, he gave me a small tip to prevent pain on the other foot between second toe and metatarsal bone. He didn't even remember when I appreciated that, but it was really huge to me, meaning a lot. No other doctors were able to notice the exact cause in spite of MRI and ultrasound. I recommend this doctor.

I am very pleased with the care I have received from Dr. Caronis. I have seen him for a number of years, and he has done surgery on me twice, once for Achilles tendon, and once for tennis elbow. Not only were the events successfully treated, Dr. Caronis's care was personal, professional, and genuine.

Dr. Caronis first treated me for a broken wrist. He was excellent, compassionate and gave us options for treatment (surgery or not) and what I could expect. Things went very well. He is very accessible for questions and open to needed appointments). Today my wrist is almost perfect and I thank Dr. Caronis and his staff. With recent knee problems, I feared he did not treat that area. He saw me and assured me he was there for whatever I needed. He is a 5 star doctor & recommend highly

I've taken all three of my kids to Dr. Caronis because of various sports injuries. He takes the time to listen and we have never felt that he rushed us. He patiently addressed all of our concerns. Dr. Caronis was able to diagnose and treat the injuries so my kids could get back to playing their sports pretty quickly. He's fantastic!! Thanks Dr. Caronis!!!

I saw Dr. Caronis in Libertyville at the Condell Outpatient building. It is a very nice facility. I was seen right away. What most impressed me was how he acted towards me. My problem was with my foot and I had put it off a little because of embarrassment. He did not act disgusted, nor did he rush of to scrub his hands right away. He stayed right where he was and discussed things with me. He seemed knowledgable and took his time to access the problem. I would highly recommend this doctor.

He has great empathy. He obviously is a top rated professional but is not arrogant. He listens and spells it all out in simplistic terms. I go regularly for a cortisone shot in an arthritic knee. He is the guy who does the shot, not an assistant. He's kept me playing soccer, skiing and hockey for 4 years after ACL surgery in the same knee!

Dr. Caronis is fantastic. He truly cares about his patients and takes a consultative approach to care. I dislocated my knee and had several months of recovery and physical therapy. Dr. Caronis saw me immediately after the accident, working me in without an appointment. With the help of Dr. Caronis and his incredible team, I was able to make great strides in my recovery. I will always be grateful for their care and will recommend them to anyone!

From the very first appointment through to my last, Dr. Coronis has been amazing! He and his staff calmed my fears, managed my expectations and educated me and my family along the way. I had put off my ankle surgery for years trying to find the "right" doctor, and then I found Dr. Coronis. It has been about 13 months since my subtalar fusion, and I couldn't be happier. It has been life changing! I can now keep up with my kids & participate in life the way I used to. My quality of life is back!

We have seen Dr. Caronis for everything from a sprain to a torn ACL. No matter the severity of the injury, Dr. Caronis always takes the time to make sure we are comfortable and confident with the plan of action/treatment. His patience, knowledge, and bedside manner are superior and I would recommend him without hesitation to anyone in need of orthopedic care.
