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.

An exceptional, highly talented surgeon
I slipped on the winter ice on my front stairs and broke my right hand in two places. It was not a clean break. Dr. Judson's treatment has been exemplary. The pins were embedded with precision second to none. He saw me the day after I called and all appointments have gone smoothly. Dr. Judson's Physician Assistant Ashley is extremely competent and communicative. In a completely separate incident, Dr. Judson was on-call with the IBJ at Hartford Hospital when my 92-year old Dad broke his hip and needed urgent surgery. Our family was beyond pleased. His operation and follow up care was perfectly executed, even though his focus is hand surgery. This is an EXTREMELY skilled surgeon. You will be very happy and can feel confident if you choose his team. One final comment is that the facilities are all state-of-the art and offer easy parking.

Excellent. He is patient and thorough; outlined my options; and persuaded toward a nonsurgical course of action that completely healed very painful floating bone fragments.

I would absolutely recommend Dr. Judson. I fractured my hip on Christmas Eve 2017 and re- civet excellent service at the Hartford Hospital ED. I was quickly taken to surgery and was met by a smiling reassuring Dr. Judson. I was pretty upset about missing work but he did such a great job that I was able to go back to work in less than 3 weeks without a cane. Within 6 wks I had to stop and think to remember which hip I had fractured. He is a great surgeon and very caring.
