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.

Dr. Dundon gave me my life back
Dr. Dundon performed a total hip replacement, anterior approach, on me. He was simply amazing. I could barely walk before the surgery. After the surgery I had minimal pain, much less than before the surgery. After three weeks I could already walk without support, after five weeks I am walking longer distances. Every day I wake up amazed how my body repairs itself. He did an excellent job.

Highly recommend Dr. Dundon
Dr. Dundon immediately diagnosed my problem and I was scheduled for a total hip replacement. Please don't waste your valuable time and energy going to NY or Philadelphia when there is a first-rate surgeon available to help you nearby!

Excellent except for making surgery appointment
Experience with the doctor and office staff has been excellent with the exception of the person who schedules surgeries. She promises to return calls, but does not. My wife has been trying to schedule surgery since January and it is now March.

Superb
I had a severe case of pasquarella infection (cat bite) in both replacement knees, requiring total debridement and removal of damaged ligaments, tissue, tendons, and all infected parts of the artificial joint. Very few orthopedic surgeons could have completed this surgery so that I could recover and regain mobility. Dr. Dundon has all of the skills and experience, but he also has a 'sixth sense' or 'instinct' for how best to diagnose, operate and provide post-surgical care for damaged knees.

WONDERFUL DOCTOR W/SPECIAL PA
Both Dr. Dundon and Vickie Kummer, his PA, always explained what my problem was and how they were planning to fix it. Vickie was especially kind and knowledgeable, when I came in for an emergency visit and the Dr. wasn't available. She is an excellent Physician's Assistant, with a great sense of humor, which always helped to get my mind off of my pain. Vickie administered shots that I hardly felt and, in my opinion, she is the VERY BEST PHYSICIAN'S ASSISTANT on your staff.

Complex hip replacement
Outstanding. Best orthopedic surgeon anyone can ask for. I had a very complicated hip replacement because I fell and fractured by acetabulum. I was listed in critical condition. Most orthopods were hesitant to take on my surgery because there was a good chance of failure as well as mortality. Dr. Dundon had me walking again. He is also a very attentive and caring person who spends as much time as a person needs and addresses all questions and concerns.

Wonderful Care
Dr Dundon will be doing a second hip replacement on me soon. I find the OINJ staff to be personable and very receptive. Dr Dundon is just awesome. he gives me his full attention when I am with him and I never feel rushed. He is a incredible surgeon. I remember he came to follow up on me in the hospital late in the evening last time and I was his first case that day at Morristown. He said he just wanted to make sure I was doing ok and if I needed anything from him before he went home. I felt his compassion and empathy by that act of kindness. I would highly recommend him for hip replacements as well as the OINJ.

ABSOLUTELY AMAZING
I saw Dr Dundon after a horrific hip replacement from another doctor. Not only was Dr Dunden willing to see me, as many doctors won’t once someone else has done your hip initially, but he and his whole staff were absolutely amazing in not only calming me down and explaining everything, but providing an absolutely incredible experience right through to and following the surgery. I had hardly any pain after the surgery, left the hospital within a few hours, it was a very small scar, and I am walking better than I ever have, certainly better since my fall and the awful surgery from another doctor, that Dr. Dundon was not only able to fix, but make me better than ever! I have honestly never felt so good and he was an absolute pleasure to deal with, did an amazing job and I truly recommend him without question wholeheartedly!

Dr. Dundon is an amazing surgeon. My father several years ago had his knee replaced by a different surgeon in central Pennsylvania at a very reputable hospital. Unfortunately his knee replacement became infected and required a total of six operations in an unsuccessful effort to get rid of the infection. Finally my father had reached the point where his prior surgeon only gave him a 5% chance of saving the infected knee. In other words, they were advising him to have an above the knee amputation. I knew that Dr. Dundon had successfully treated patients with similarly infected knees with good results. Long story short, my father had the infected hardware from his knee removed and a new knee replacement with impregnated antibiotics inserted a little over a year ago by Dr Dundon at Morristown Medical Center. 16 months later, my father is doing well with no signs of infection in his knee. Great job Dr Dundon and Morristown Medical Center!

Bilateral Hip Replacement - not only is Dr. Dundon an amazing surgeon, he is a fantastic person. His true compassion and care for his patients is incredible. He not only goes the extra mile, he goes the whole distance with you and makes 100% certain you're better. I wish everyone who needs orthopedic surgery could see John Dundon.

I fell and dislocated and broke my hip. I had to be brought to a local hospital by ambulance during COVID 19. I was alone and in excruciating pain.My husband contacted Dr. Dundon's Sparta office, where his assistant, Lindsey called him immediately. He reviewed my x-rays and CT scan and had me transferred to Morristown Hospital where he met me that evening and operated successfully, doing a total hip replacement. Dr. Dundon spoke with me as soon as he got there, with concern and care. He said he knew I had to be in a lot of pain and he didn't want me to have to wait for the next day. I was so grateful! I went home the following day, walking without a cane and going up and down stairs with the cane. With some in home PT and then outpatient PT for a few weeks, I have resumed all my activities: hiking, biking, swimming, yoga, step aerobics, spin classes and now cross- country skiing! I will be forever grateful to Dr. Dundon for his expertise, wonderful bedside manner, and compassion.

There are no words to describe of how good is Dr Dundon. I had my hip replacement at 11 AM in the morning and the next day i walked for 5 miles (Honestly, no exaggerations). It's been nine months since my surgery, I am 70 yrs old, and i feel like a new person.
