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.

Not even worth one star
Way too long to fit in 900 characters. Liar, doesn't respond, leaves you in pain without caring one bit, didn't describe the procedure until the day before. Hadn't heard from him in 5 weeks. Horrible!

Genuine Dr. who is a straight shooter. Achilles surgery was smooth. I’m back up on my feet a couple of months later.

Dr.Tejwani is an incredible surgeon My brother had heterotopic ossification around both hips. He was unable to ambulate, limited range of motion, in constant pain and no quality of life. He had gone to two surgeons who told us they couldn’t help him, and he would not walk again. We met with Dr. Tejwani at the end of 2020. A few weeks later, he performed surgery on the right hip. It was incredibly successful. My brother saw immediate improvement. Dr. Tejwani did the second hip this past August. Another remarkable success. My brother was able to stand for the first time in 2 1/2 years. Every day of his life will be better because of Dr. Tejwani and his team. Special thanks to Mark Hanbury, PA, the staff and entire Care team who were outstanding. I highly recommend them to anyone.

I fell and fractured my elbow and wrist. Dr Tejwani was able to operate on both at the same time. I appreciate his bedside manner. He always brings a young doctor with him when we meet so that they can learn from his work. He genuinely cares about his patients.

I came to Dr. Tejwani and mentioned knee pain. His exact response was "I don't deal with that" and he disregarded my entire issue. A doctor should not disregard a patient's issue.

I had an amazing outcome from surgery of a complicated break (TPF) by Dr. Tejwani. Also found that he communicated really well and truly cared about seeing his patients get better.

Stellar surgeon and a kind and genuine bedside manner. Dr. Tejwani sets the benchmark. I was hit by a car in 2015 and suffered serious injuries to both my left and right legs, requiring hardware to be permanently placed in both legs. Dr. Tejwani was able to operate on both legs during the course of one surgery (amazing in and of itself) and several physical therapists commented how beautiful my scars are-barely noticeable. I was walking within months thanks to Dr. Tejwani.
