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 Wiss performed a second surgery after first Surgeon Botched the initial surgery. Dr Wiss made a “FANTASTIC” repair and got me back to walking.

Dr. Wiss performed surgery to repair my tibial plateau fracture (suffered skiing). He spent a lot of time getting to know me as a patient and a person, and knew that my goal was to recover soon enough to do the Race Across America on my bicycle. I made that goal ... in no small part due to his skill as a surgeon and his willingness to consider my conditioning and my goals in the treatment plan. The results were excellent, and I appreciated our candid discussions about the injury and treatment. IMHO, the most important quality in a doctor is that you can put your mind at ease and your trust in them. That is exactly what I did. I don't give 5 star reviews very often, but Dr. Wiss richly deserves it. Thank you!

Dr. Wiss is caring, and has the experience and expertise necessary to repairing complex fractures. He corrected a non-union of my ulna that entailed a graft from my iliac. Had I found him for the original procedure, the graft likely would not have been necessary. As he reviewed the pre- and post-surgical x-rays, it was clear that his procedure was superior to the original, providing complete stabilization of the bone and enabling full use. An excellent surgeon.

As a doctor myself, I want to thank him for saving my horribly mutilated and broken leg. Many other surgeons failed to successfully mend it, but Dr. Wiss repaired it his first attempt. I am now walking and even running again. I have even done gentle skiing on it. Dr. Wiss is a genius and is in a class all by himself. My highest recommendation. Craig Gordon DMD
