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.

Experienced, professional, thorough
Dr Sitler corrected a severe foot problem years ago. It was a lengthy surgery /experience and I had truly great, professional care the whole time. Problem solved.... I have never had any more trouble. I would go to him again in a New York minute........

I broke my ankle ice skating & it was one of the worst experiences of my life. I hate needles let alone surgeries but Dr. Sittler with an infectioues confidence explained my only option, surgery, that I was convinced to do it. He did an awesome work as he described to me he would do and his work is truly a piece of art. You cannot even notice the stitches as he has done a very clean job. You should be lucky to have Dr. Sittler do your surgery. I can walk, run & swim again just like before.

Absolutely competent and compassionate orthopedic surgeon. I did one fusion, then a triple fusion and finally ankle replacement on left foot. He is known to be a specialist on the Infinity System for ankle replacement in San Diego. I can't wait to walk pain-free again. Thanks, Dr. Sitler!

Hurt my knee being clumsy, waited forever for a referral to Dr.Sitler. Hmo hot mess!Once I was able to get in, He was able to schedule the surgery to repair my ACL within days of seeing me. He did a great job! I got married and was able to walk down the isle without a walker! He is a sweet man, who takes care of business! 2more months of rehab will be good as new! Thank goodness I found him!

Dr. Sitler is certified for Wright Medical Total Ankle Replacement procedures using both the Infinity product and the In-bone product. Other physicians I have researched have been certified for one or the other. He is easy to talk to and listens well. He also comes across as quietly confident.
