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.

In addition to his skill as a surgeon, Dr. Gryzlo will listen to you and answer all of your questions. He repaired my right rotator five years ago and it is wonderful.

Perhaps a good surgeon, but I never had a chance to find out. The communications between his office and the pre-op scheduling department was a mess. They could not get aligned from day 1. The pre-op scheduling dept and I were told different things time after time. After at least 10 calls back and forth over weeks, they still could not align with pre-op scheduling on what exactly I needed done and why. Made me nervous to proceed. Finally decided I had better cancel the whole thing and start the process over with a different physician. Wasted a lot of time. Pretty disappointed.

Overall an awesome doctor, but it's a large practice so there will be a compromise in bedside manor/comfort. He spends time reviewing your case and usually allocated a few minutes at the end of the session for you to ask any questions. In the end, I wasn't a candidate for surgery so PT was the appropriate route for me but based on feedback I received in the waiting area, everyone praised him with high regards.
