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 don’t recommend this doctor
He doesn’t know what he is doing, he did cast my son legs in the wrong position causing bowing on both legs.

5 stars isn't enough. We owe Dr Fitz everything! He performed almost a complete spinal fusion on our daughter Taliah at Riley Children's Hospital in Indy. He did so during the height of the pandemic but made us feel so at peace with our decision. The surgery itself caused a lot of anxiety and fear for our daughter and before all else he made sure to connect us with a therapist for her to speak with. This made me know he was who we were meant to see. The day of surgery he came in with such confidence and reassurance and his team updated us every 45 min of nearly an 8 hour surgery. After surgery he was there for all our concerns and questions and at each post op visit made my daughter and I feel so much better. There is truly no one else I would suggest to treat your child with any of their spinal concerns. The only downfall is he left Indy for Florida and now visits are a little more stressful. We sure miss him! If he reads these; Dr. Fitz the gratitude our family has for you is immense. You'll always hold a special place in our hearts for how you helped our daughter. You're the best surgeon and we are so fortunate to God for giving us you!
