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.

Arrogant and dismissive
I called Upmc orthopedic surgery to make an appointment with a surgeon after I suffered an ankle injury. I did not find out until months later that he was not a surgeon. He is very dismissive and my MRI showed multiple bone contusions and grade 2-3 years of all ligaments. I was told “I take care of football players and I know what I’m doing” when I said I thought I needed surgery from my research. I’m a nurse. After 6 weeks in a cam boot and not much improvement he told me “your MRI really didn’t show anything “ when I listed what it said he told me “that’s what a sprained ankle is”. To me not getting any better his only answer was to stay in the cam boot another 4 weeks. I did not go back and got a second opinion and had surgery done on my ATFL.

Awful
Dr. Dancy has an awful bedside manor. I felt like I was bothering him.. every time I asked a question. Every time I had an appointment. he'd always rush out after a few minutes. It felt like he wouldn't listen to me or really cared. I even took someone with me to see how he was. They even agreed with how terrible he is. I've never left a review before.. I hate to leave a bad review but I hope this helps someone out.

I had a wrist strain from riding horses all weekend. i couldn't put pressure on it. i looked down at it one day and it was swollen. Dr. Dancy diagnosed it as a strain. He injected my wrist with a natural anti- inflammatory. within 36 hours i had full range of motion and no pain. He listens and is very knowledgeable.
