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.

I miss this guy!!!! Dr. Carlini retired after my 6 month check on my knee replacement. I had to have a hip replacement and boy do I miss him. I do not get the care and reassurance from my new orthopedic surgeon/office. They don't even want to give me an appointment to remove my dressing and check the wound. :( I'm to wait 4 weeks for my first follow up. Not like Dr. Carlini who cared about his patience.

Dr. Carlini has been open and honest about all of my procedures for the past 14 years. Outstanding doctor that describes everything to you so you don't leave the office without knowing everything that is going on. I will continue to come to him with any orthopedic issues that I may have and will continue to recommend people to him as I have done throughout the years.

The doctor just had too many patients to spend much time with each one. He did make a personal call to another doctor for a referral. I appreciated that very much.
