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.

Respect
He took time and explained things. He and Cody made several trips to check on me while I was in hospital. Very caring people and so are his office people

As soon as we met he gave the first impression that he was there for me. I haven't had the pleasure of seeing him a second time yet, I have found out that he continues to attempt to get me another visit scheduled. Above and beyond.

First visit
Immediately upon meeting Dr DePalma I could tell he was confident in what he was doing. He diagnosed me and needed further testing to be sure. My insurance did not want to cover the procedures and he has resubmitted the request until he got a yes. Not only do I consider him a doctor, I consider him a good one, he advocates for his patients. I don't know another doctor who does that.

Amazing physicians
My daughter and I both think Dr Depalma and Cody are both amazing! Very honest and up front about what’s going on. We would recommend to anyone with back issues. 13 years with headaches no one knew why, seemed we were fiighting a battle. She had back issues had the surgery and although it’s only 2 weeks post op today she has been headache free

An Amazing Surgeon
Dr Depalma is an amazing surgeon. I have went to other doctors about my back and have been told that surgery is not an option. When my sister broke her leg he fixed it for her and did an amazing job. I asked him o e day while in a visit for my sister if he worked on backs. He said yes and so I made an appointment. I will never regret that decision. I was in a lot of pain in my backs and hips and was not able to do much without taking lots of pain medication. He explained to me what he was going to do and after my surgery my pain level decreased tremendously and not I can do ky gardening and other activities that I enjoy without the extreme pain. He told me that he could reduce my pain level and he did. He gave me back my life and I will he forever grateful to him and his staff. I recommend him to anyone that has back issues and other issues that he can work on. He treats you like family and that makes you feel more comfortable with him and the surgery Thank you Dr Depalma.

Greatest Dr ever
Dr Depalma and his assistant Cody are wonderful. They make you feel right at home .They answer any and all questions with compassion. They're friendly and outgoing.They talk to you as a person not a number to be seen. They keep you informed of everything they're doing. My husband and I were very lucky to have them do our spinal fusion.They gave us a new lease on life pain free. We will forever be grateful to them. We highly recommend them if you need anything done.

Excellent Surgeon
Dr. DePalma cares about you as a Patient. He explains in detail what is going on and if Surgery is needed, the exact way it is done. He literally saved my quality of life when he tackled my Spinal Fusion Failure from a previous Surgery, that another Surgeon did. He is VERY through in how he does the Surgery and during the healing process. He, Codi and Shaylee are amazing and I wouldn't hesitate in,'Recommending' their Services to anyone. He will also keep a watch months after your Surgery, on how your doing. I didn't have that with my other Surgeon, so THIS means ALOT and it eases my worries about the whole process. I HIGHLY RECOMMEND Dr. DePalma, he WILL provide the care you need. He is also very personable and that is needed when a Patient is worried and in pain. St. Joseph's is blessed to have him on their Team.

Excellent surgeon
My husband had 2 prior back surgeries before seeing Dr Depalma. Brian had surgery the end of June, he is now pain free for the first time in 7 years. This surgery has changed our lives. I can’t thank Dr Depalma for his expertise and devotion to his patients. As a nurse I would ( and have) recommend him any family or friend that is in need of a orthopedic surgeon.
