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.

I love Dr Drew, he has treated me for several years mostly for my knees. He has performed surgeries on me and his bedside manner is impeccable. I will never see anyone else for my orthopedic needs. He has a great personality and truly cares about his patients. I highly recommend him, his staff is also very nice and helpful ??

Yes, we will recommend Dr. Drew to other people. Our family is very pleased with the results of the total knee replacement surgery that he performed on our Dad. He is definitely concerned about his patients well being as well as their recovery. We have been contacted every other day since the surgery and it’s been great. Any questions you might have are answered the same day. This is what we looked for when it came to our Dad’s well being. Someone who was caring and medically qualified to take care of our Dad. We are very pleased!!! HE COMES HIGHLY RECOMMENDED!!

I am very lucky to have had Dr. Drew repair my torn rotator cuff. I cannot say enough about him or his staff. The hospital where the procedure was done was excellent also, the staff especially. Dr. Drew’s nurse, Shelly, is very kind and professional. I promise you your needs will be met and you will be very happy with the results.

I couldn’t be more happy with Dr Drew. And I have never heard anything negative about him, from anybody. His reputation is spot on. His nursing staff are the best. Especially Cynthia. They go all out to fix any question that may arise. I will definitely recommend Dr Drew to anyone, in fact I already have.

Out of all the doctors I have dealt with this is by far the best professional doctor I come across. He is so compassionate about his patients. He is also a doctor that likes to explain all of his reason for his treatments for you. I would highly recommend this doctor to all that need a bone doctor.
