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.

AMAZING!
Dr. Denton has performed 2 shoulder surgeries and one knee surgery for me and I was completely pain free by my 2 week checkup. He truly is the BEST Orthopedic surgeon ever! Thank you Dr. Denton!

Do not, I repeat, for any reason use Dr. Denton of McLeod Orthopedics. I asked for a second opinion about some MRIs, nothing against him, to gain supporting documentation for the VA. He cancelled my surgery because I did that, and they wait until the day before, 30 minutes before they closed, to tell me he cancelled it because that. That is unprofessional behavior and now I will not trust him if my life depended on it. He says he understands the needs of Veterans, yet does this because of paperwork I needed to support my claim?

If you want to be treated like you’re not a person, simply a chart and X-ray, this is the place to go.

I had been coming for knee pain, had received 2 injections. Went for MRI which was negative for tears etc. That is a good thing. But with a no tear report, I was dismissed as no surgery needed. Still have knee pain. Staff and Dr. are professional. Just feel since I didn't need surgery I no longer qualified as a patient to figure out why still hurt. Was told if gets worse come back, but what do you do in the meantime?

I would highly recommend Doctor Denton. He did what he said he would do, help me with my knee pain. He explained every thing that he was going to do. Answered all my many questions.I felt like I could trust him. He always met me with a big smile and hand shake .He took excellent care of me. When I need my other knee replacement done , he will be the Doctor I will go back to.The staff there treated me and my wife with dignity and respect. They were very friendly and helpful.

Dr. Denton repaired my right shoulder ten years ago (2006) and it is still in great shape. He repaired my left shoulder in May 2016. I am still in the recovery process and doing very well at this time. Therapy and healing are right on track. His staff is very nice, wonderful to work with and there to help if you need them. The therapy staff are also great.
