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.

If you Want your hand back Dr Savenor is the man
I started to see Dr Savenor about 6 months ago with hand injury. First visit could not use arm and hand at all that's after seeing Doctor for 11 month at Brigham Women Foxboro location. Brigham Foxboro just doing shot after shot and would not listen to the patient. So arrive at Dr Savenors office in Needham and it was different from minute one Dr Savenor ordered testing on arm and hand. Results were that i needed surgery to solve the problem. Dr Savernor will not waste your time he gets rite to work problem solving. The day after the surgery felt like a million bucks. After not being able use arm and hand for year.

He's Awesome
I come all the way from New Bedford because he's an Awersome Dr. I've been seeing him for over 5 years. And I highly recommend him. And I wouldn't go to any one else. If anyone needs Orthopedic Dr. he's the best.

Had an 11am appt. his admin came out to tell me he’s cancelling the appt because I was late. It was 10:55. I filled out the paperwork in less than 5 minutes. I lodged a complaint with the hospital about this.

I am 71 years old and have had medical attention from countless doctors over my lifetime. I have never completed one of these surveys before, but felt compelled to write this review to inform anyone searching for medical assistance due to hand problems. This top doc is for you. Not only did Dr. Savenor do an excellent job helping repair a fracture to my finger and broken fingernail, but it was his bedside manner that separates him from other docs. By far the most sensitive and compassionate.
