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.

Best care possible!?
Dr Gainor has all the qualities one would want in a medical professional. He exhibits knowledge, understanding, compassion, respect for patient’s needs and personal situation, and above all, he talks and employs common sense!

Very professional yet personable
X-rays were taken of my right hip. I was allowed to take a picture of the X-ray. Dr gainor was very understanding and gave me a script for PT. I will see him in 4 weeks for follow up.

I felt comfortable immediately with Dr Gainer. I needed a shot for Bursitis and when I saw the long needle I was a bit nervous. Dr Gainer has a very good manner and I quickly lost my fear. I’m glad that I found him!

Came highly recommended.
Dr. Gainor came highly recommended by a knee replacement patient of his and friend of mine and I couldn’t have asked for a better choice! He made me feel comfortable, was patient, listened to my questions and concerns and was knowledgeable re my diagnoses. Though I didn’t need anything more than TP at this time, I would call on him in a minute if I did. Great Doctor! Very nice staff.

Best knee surgeon in area !
Avoided total knee replacements for 8 years until pain affected my dog walking . Dr Gainor was recommended and soon learned he was the best choice. He replaced both knees in 2023 , 6 months apart . Never needed narcotic pain meds or assistive devices . He is knowledgeable, compassionate , and I continue to refer others to him .
