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.

Outstanding Physician!
I have had Dr. Katz ever since we moved to Brunswick some fifteen years ago for a broken ankle, wrist, finger and now my knee. He listens, is attentive and has a wonderful bedside manner. His staff is top notch.

Dr Katz is in my opinion the complete package. You go see him when you are in extreme pain. You need to feel comfortable and heard, he is amazing. While he will give you his very educated opinion, he will never be pushy or abrasive. He is very attentive and also has a great sense of humor, while taking you and your symptoms seriously.

Dr. Katz is a wonderful doctor and his staff is so efficient. They all set the bar very high for both doctor and office staff. This is my second surgery with Dr. Katz and I can't think of anyone else I would pick to treat me. He obviously cares about his patients and their positive outcomes from his surgeries. I recommend him highly for anyone who wants the best. He is caring, compassionate and highly skilled.
