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.

Dr. Garris performed surgery on my left foot over 5 years ago and now I may possibly may need surgery on my right foot. There is no other Doctor in this world that I would allow to perform surgery on me other than Dr. Garris! Dr . Garris is professional yet he has such a kind spirit! I’m always amazed at how at ease he makes you feel! He treats you like family which is why no matter how far I have I have to travel, I will always make the trip because he truly is an awesome doctor and makes you feel well cared for!!

Dr. Garras is awesome!
I visited Dr. Garras about a problem I had been having for a few months. After taking a few xrays, he made a diagnosis and gave me a plan for recovery. I appreciated the time he took to access my questions and concerns, and he gave honest responses that I could easily understand. Dr. Garras has a warm and welcoming demeanor that can put a patient at ease. I would highly recommend Dr. Garras.

This was my first appointment at Midwest and everyone from the front desk, to the xray, and the medical assistants were all super sweet and kind. Both Emily and Dr. Garras are great. I felt very comfortable with both of them and I left my appointment finally having a clear understanding of my injury and what my next steps are.

I cannot Dr Garris. In 11 weeks of treatment I have never met the man. I’ve seen Sammy and Emily who have been absolutely wonderful. I don’t know why my insurance should pay any bills from Dr Garris since I have never even met him.

I was there to see the Dr. Garas' PA, Emily, and I was extremely impressed with her. She explained thoroughly the results of my tests. She checked my ankle and explained what the issue was and what can be done to resolve the problem. All of this was done in kindness, compassion and with an explanation a lay person can understand. How fortunate Midwest Orthopedic is to have Emily on your staff.

On going care
Dr Garras repaired my broken ankle PERFECTLY 3 years ago. He currently manages my arthritic condition effectively, with specific recommendations for a long term solution. Fellowship trained as an Orthopedic Foot and Ankle specialist from a world renowned program I highly recommend him to anyone with debilitating foot and ankle pain.

Difficult to get an appointment
I saw Dr. Garras two years ago for a broken foot from a car accident. I bonded with him immediately. I had/have a hammer two on the same foot which I discussed with him at the time and told him I would be back at a later date to have it surgically repaired. I recently broke the same toe and contacted his office for him to look at the toe and schedule the surgery for the hammer toe. I was told I would have to see a PA prior to seeing Dr. Garras. I’m very disappointed since I am a previous patient. I told the office I was not going to be charged for a PA visit and that I would go elsewhere. I don’t want to go elsewhere, I want to see Dr. Garras.

My whole family has been a patient of Dr. Garras, he has the best bedside manner, he is personable and welcoming and adreses all of me and my families medical concerns with care, compassion and competency. His PA Samme Cordova is just as amazing! I look forward to visits with both of them. Couldnt say enough good things about the two of them.
