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.

Cautious Approach
Dr. Talluri approached my first visit by giving me information about my condition and the typical treatments and outcomes, and he focused on a conservative plan for me specifically, starting with the least invasive option and reassessing my status periodically. He’s very personable and engaging.

Caring and Compassionate
Dr. Talluri cares. I am new to town and was referred by a neighbor that had a knee replacement from Dr. Talluri. I myself needed a total knee replacement From the first visit to the surgery and follow up appointments he has been so caring, gentle, knowledgeable and compassionate. My surgery was a complete success and my recovery is ahead of schedule. I would highly recommend Dr. Talluri.

Dr. Talluri The Real Deal
Not only is Dr. Talluri a great and talented Orthopedic Surgeon, but his passion for the well being and caring for his patient is at the forefront of what a wonderful doctor he is, over and above of what you'd expect from a young modern day surgeon. He is old school, and I mean that in a very positive way. I would highly recommend Dr. Talluri. Thank You!

The Best!!
Dr. Talluri performed a hip replacement on my adult son who has always had issues walking. The result was truly amazing. Almost no post operative pain, and he was up walking better than ever in a few days. Post-op x-rays confirmed a positive result.Thank you Dr. Tallurri.

Highly skilled surgeon- great listener.
Wait times after check in are unacceptable at over one hour on 2 different appts. They need to rework the scheduling process so that the doctors can still provide a detailed consultation without the agony of lengthy wait times for patients.

Best Surgeon in Sarasota County

Excellent Orthopedic Surgeon
Dr. Talluri listens to his patients and includes them in his plan of care. He carefully considered my health history and other recent surgeries during our discussion. He showed me my hip prosthesis on the X-ray and pointed out the excellent positioning for full functionality that I now have. He is both an excellent surgeon and an insightful and skilled communicator. I recommend him highly to those in need of his skills.

Giddy Up with Robotics-I Am a Believer!
Dr. Talluri was the best doctor ever. He had great bedside manner and explained the robotic process very well but I still was concerned. It was my first time using the robotic procedure. It turned out much less painful than the first knee surgery. I highly recommend him as your surgeon. I even travelled to Florida from Mississippi for this specific procedure. Dr. Talluri and his staff were extremely cooperative, kind and efficient. Before surgery I was in terrible pain walking and climbing stairs was almost impossible. Now after two weeks the severe pain has gone away. Once again I attribute my success to Dr. Talluri and his expertise. After our first meeting I must admit I didn’t believe that the robotic surgery would make such a difference. In fact I thought to myself what have I gotten myself into. Believe me when I say I was in so much pain and expected the process to be much worse than it was. I leave for Mississippi next week and can’t wait to brag about my new knee.
