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.

Puts patient at ease immediately. Takes time to clearly explain. Appreciate his not rushing to do surgery and consider other options first.

Several years ago I had some knee pain and was told by another dr to have a surgery. I saw Dr Salzer as a second opinion because I do not trust the other one. Dr Salzer examined me and sent me for a four month PT. The pain was gone and up until now I keep doing the exercises as he recommended. I had referred so many of my colleagues to his medical office, and they were all very happy with the results. Dr Salzer ,you are the best of the best. And your team is the dream team for patients, caring , talented and very professional. A Nguyen.
